thank you guys for the replies.
my case is CR1 not K1.all security checks have been done already by the NVC before the case was sent to Casablanca.all they have to review now for my case is the affidivat of the co-sponsor.


I'm not sure that's true. Someone can correct me if they know otherwise, but I believe you will need to go through security checks again.



My understanding is that you are correct. I know CR-1 goes through intensie security checks at NVC because this is a immigration visa which gives the adjustment of status even before entry. BUT the consulste is processing this visa and their process is separate from USCIS and what is required at NVC for a cr-1.

In otehr words before casa can approve a visa, it must follow the proceedures.

I don't think thats correct cuz it doesn't make since.because my case was processed and completed by the NVC and on the day of the interview if I didn't have the co-sponsor problem I would of have my visa by now.so when they required a co-spondor I don't think that means they have to redo the security checks.

Hi everybody.
as I posted before my interview was on Oct 2nd and I was given section 221(g) requested to get a co-sponsor and submit affidivat of support, tax return documents and W-2 for a co-sponsor.well I got a co-sponsor and I'm gonna go tomorrow to the consulate in casablanca tomorrow to submit the documents. my question is how long it may take them to review the doc and issue the visa ?

I'm not posting this to be insensitive. I feel badly for anyone who loses a love they thought would last forever, ESPECIALLY after all most of us go thru to be together. Yet, there has been a spade of breakups recently and I'm hoping we can turn a negative into a positve and use the experiences of those among us who are now wiser to avoid some possible pitfalls AND to reexamine red flags not seen by rose colored glasses.

Any thoughts?

***Yeah... um if your neighbor sees him bring home a blond and take her into your house when you are at work, thats a flag right?

***If you find condoms in his car... um thats a flag right?
***If he files an asylum claim claiming membership in hamas and men with black cars come to your door with guns drawn, thats a flag right?
***And 2 years later they are still looking for him because hes been gone 4 years and STILL USING YOUR ADDRESS... ( oh yes.. I am so not kidding )

LOL
LOL
LOL
LOL
and LOL

funny now that he is soooooooooooooooooooooo gone

am i to understand that those above (marked with *) happened to you?


um yeah.. and a hell of a lot worse.. so bad that I have a permanent injunction against him and he even broke that... he was one scary as hell guy...He used to tell women he was greek ( yeah if Greece had a city named Ramallah LOL LOL

Oh I left out garbage bag full of social security cards.... car dealer friends who traded in fake papers.... oh and the whole giving 6 other people my address without asking me and I am getting all of Nablus's mail. Um LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

sounds like a great guy to me.why did you guys breakup ?LOL

Middle East and North Africasection 221g casablanca , waiting more than 5 weeks
sorry to hear that.
it seems like your case was denied and sent back to the US.but you said the consular officer told you they will contact you in 4 weeks,so I think you should send them an email and ask them what that paper means exactlly.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)automated message hasn't updated .

The info they're missing is the DS-230, once you mail it to them and they review it, the automated message will say that your case has been completed. I'm getting the same message and I've been waiting for the DS-230 to be generated.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)automated message hasn't updated .
Hi everybody.
after my wife submitted the affidivate of support and the NVC genrated IV fee bill, I checked the automated message and it said some information is missing.so I called NVC and talked to an opirator and he said that its just an automated message till they get the IV fee payment and that everything was ok. then I got the bill and I sent the payment and the NVC recieved it but the automated message still say some info is missing so I had to call and ask them again. and the opirator I talked to told me they recieved the payment and the form DS230 was generated and that everything was ok.
but till now the automated message still says the same thing, so I don't have a way to check on the case other than sending email wich takes forever to get an answer.my question is has anybody had the same problem and is their something I can do to let them update the messsage ?

National Visa Center (Dept of State)what the hell is wrong again ?

Relax Tarik, The I-864 goes to one office for processing and shows missing documents of DS-230 that goes to another office. Hopefully, your case will be completed in a few weeks. I panicked and called them and they gave this explaination to me during our processing. In our case it was roughly 3 weeks before they case approved and case forwarded to our consulate/embassy.

Mary

Hi everybody.
the NVC recieved the packet 3 form DS-230 almost 2 weeks ago.today I checked the automated responde message and it says some information is missing.I got the same message before and it was just an automatic message till they got the fee for the DS-230.but now I'm so confused and mad because I'm sure I sent exactly the documents they requested.
I'm wondering if its just an automatic stupid message again or something is wrong with my documents.has anybody had the same problem before ? please help :blink:

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Urgent help !

after submitting the packet 3 form DS-230.the automated message said some information is missing and they're sending a letter to let me know what's missing so I called and talked to an operator and he told me that the passport copy I sent didn't have the exepiration date in it,well I read in the instruction to send just the biographic date page wich it has the name and date,place of birth. and unlike the american passports that have the expiration date under the picture of the passport's owner the Moroccan passports have the experation date on a seperated page.
anyway the operator told me I can scan and send the copy of the passport to the NVC email and I won't have to wait for the letter to come from them.I'm just wondering if anybody has have tried something like this and if it worked ? :blink: :wacko: :blink:


If NVC told you that you can scan and email them, then please do it as soon as possible (if you have not done it yet).

I already sent it :) thank you for the advice.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Police Certificate

Ok, bear with me now. I might have asked this before, I don't know. But does my Fiancee in Morocco need a police certificate from his home town? He has lived in Tangier for 7 years (he is 34 years old). Or does he need to go and get one from when he was 16 years old? Also, everything has to be translated into English right? Does he really need a paper saying he is single or whatever that paper is called?

Please let me know and thanks

hi.
yes he needs police certificate from all locations where he lived since he was 16 yrs old even it doesn't make since to me because when i got mine it didn't state what city I got it from but i needed just one anyway.and he need to get that paper that we call in morocco ( chahadat al aozoba ) its easy to get.and finally he needs to tronslate everything to english but his passport.

where are u from dude ? cuz here in morocco everybody can get a police certificate without any reason.its just a peace of paper that stats your arresting records.
