National Visa Center (Dept of State)scheduling of interviews 2nd week of the month...
So yeah,
Our case was completed on May 27th. And when i called NVC they said that the interview will be scheduled 2nd week of june, and I should call back then, as they will not have any information prior to that. And now, today i receive an email that our interview is in july! Its only the 2nd of the month. so i don't think this 2nd week thing is quite true.

and i am really excited and nervous but more excited finally, things are falling in place.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)I-864 Lost in mail?
if you sent it through registered mail, you can always track and find out where it is.
if not, you should wait for another week or so before sending it again.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Stuck at NVC!
K1...usually is not stuck for too long.
NVC reps will never ever give a time frame guesstimate so no point in even asking those questions.
but do keep a follow up with them.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)How long it takes after receiving the approval of I-130
No petition is treated alike, however you don't fall in an immediate category so it will take a while
L179FemalePakistan2009-07-09 04:41:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)How much time does it take to complete case
Our case was completed like 10 days after submission of last documents. Interview was scheduled 5 days later, but case was sent, 17 days later and our interview is 49 days after case completion.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)case not received at embassy
smile.gif
i dont think that the embassy has that much time, that they will give out a time for the interview and not have the complete documents for the interview.
i was in the same boat as yourself.
my interview is on july 16th
and i was under the impression that once they have an interview date they will send the case,
however the truth is that the case was just sent out on june 12 and should reach Islamabad today...june 18th.
so they will have the case before the interview.
i understand your frustration, but things will be fine
you can call NVC everyday and ask if the case has left for the embassy yet and they will tell you
thats what i did
and once it left they told me.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)RFE
well if you know what your RFE might be, just get a head start and refill the form, send it right after the RFE is printed.
The DS 230 and AOs are two different forms for which you paid two different fees.
One will not stop the other but it will stop the whole process from completion at NVC

National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS/IV FEE BILL
hopefully it was sent through registered mail if he snail mailed it.
if so track the package.

track if they have been cashed at all

if not, put a stop on it and pay online
its the best way
L179FemalePakistan2009-07-10 23:33:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)NVC Tracking
K1 probably not cause your case barely stays at the NVC.
Secondly, I am sure they track the calls. If AT&T does, why not NVC?
However, no harm if they do, you have paid their fees so you are entitled to answers

We're still waiting as well.

Hi cdneh,

This really sucks.... just when we thought we were so close.... we get stuck for AP!! I try so hard not to think about it or worry too much... the truth is, had I not found this site, I would never think twice that our case was unusual, only because I see other K1 filers fly thru NVC in a couple of days did I think why was ours taking so long.... however, I am greatful for everyone's support here and everything I've learned just from other peoples experiences... I guess the only thing we can do is WAIT.....



Have you tried contacting your congressman/senator for assistance?

National Visa Center (Dept of State)USCIS still not send my case to NVC
QUOTE (ssaif @ May 7 2009, 10:13 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I have a very similar situation. My wife's I-824 was approved on Dec 29, 2008. It is now May 7th. I waited patiently the full 90 days without calling or questioning thinking 90 days was normal. I called NVC every week for over a month now getting very little to no help. 1 week ago they suggested I send an email to NVCinquiry@state.gov. So I did. I have not heard from that. I called again yesterday, the operator suggested I call USCIS or keep waiting. So I will try calling them today when they open. Any other suggestions????


waiting: 4 months and 8 days helpsmilie.gif



I would say contact your state senator or congressman. Same thing happened to me and uscis still had my case. They never sent it to NVC. I too patiently waited for 4 months + and later my senators office inquired and found out that they never sent it! A week or so later, they sent it. So contact one of these offices or else you will wait for probably another 6 months!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)HOW TO TRACK YOUR CASE FROM NVC TO EMBASSY
For those for whom this has not worked out, usually the case is not shipped right after your case is closed. Nor is it shipped right after the interview date is set.
Our case was closed on May 27th and interview date was set on June1st for July, however, case is still with NVC.
Even though NVC had told me the case gets shipped out right within 2 days after the interview date has been scheduled.

So if you wish to track it, the best thing is to find out when case has been shipped from NVC and then track it

National Visa Center (Dept of State)IV bill Question

hi all,
I just got AOS bills from NVC for my (2) I-130 Applications, and when I go online to pay my AOS bill, I just noticed there were some missing beneficiaries on (1) of the application for the IV Bill, which is currently is pending for the my DS-3032 to return. What should I do? Should I contact NVC now or should I wait until they send me the IV bill.

Thank you in advance for any helps!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Will the reaffirmed CR-1 petition pass through NVC again?

Hi,

One quick question for all of you. My wife CR-1 visa was reaffirmed by USCIS about 2 weeks ago.
USCIS is returning the petition to the Department of State for action.

Will the case pass through the NVC again? I am asking because the case was processed by NVC
before and the visa was denied at Guangzhou. This the reaffirmed CR-1 petition.

Or the case will be sent directly to the consulate at Guangzhou by USCIS?

I checked the NVC and there is no record of it yet. Thanks for your information.

Steve

Hi my visa was also denied my embassy now the uscis reaffirmed my case IR1

National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS and IV bill

I'm not sure what your friends are talking about. My husband had no problem getting an employment letter from his work. Is your wife going to HR for the employment letter? Has she tried just asking her manager instead? It doesn't have to be anything super fancy or super official. Just a simple letter would help. It is optional, but it helps to prove current income. Since you're including pay stubs, it's not that huge of a deal if it's not included, but if possible, try to get it.

And if you're sending in tax transcripts, W2s are NOT needed (unless your wife filed taxes jointly and needs to prove just HER income).

My wife asked her supervisor, at first he said he could do it but later he said he could not as it was supposedly a "sensitive" matter so my wife went to HR. They told her they could only state that she started working for the company from xx.xx.xxxx (mm/dd/yyyy) as (position) and has earned xxx.xxx amount of money so far. My wife agreed that it was enough but even after two weeks and my wife calling them for the letter, the HR department keeps delaying and making the excuses and not giving the letter of employment. I guess your husband was lucky or maybe working with a good company.
**My wife filed as married filing jointly for 2009 as she was still married to her ex back then, 2010 and 2011 filed as single/married filing separate.**

National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS and IV bill

I approve of this message Posted Image

Hi Saylin,
Is that "Letter of employment" really optional to send with AOS?
My wife (the petitioner) is having trouble acquiring one from the company she works for. They keep giving lame excuses but still no letter after 2 weeks.
Here in Pakistan and in Singapore, the companies do give the employees an employment letter but my friends in the U.S say that there is no such things there.
If we send in just the following, shall it be sufficient?
1. I-864
2. IRS Tax Transcripts x 3
3. Pay stubs
4. W-2 from previous years as my wife won't get W-2 for 2012 till later in January 2013

National Visa Center (Dept of State)IV Fee is not showing

When was the DS-3032 accepted?


IV bill has been paid today. Thanks for your reply Saylin.
It was delayed because NVC had wrong address of my wife and were missing a part of my postal address so I had sent them an e-mail asking to correct the adderss. Apparently, it took them about 2 weeks to respond to that e-mail and that is why they had taken off the payment option.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)IV Fee is not showing
Attached File  IV-Bill.JPG   50.59KB   15 downloadsHi,
My Wife (my agent of choice) has already paid AOS fee, it showed as "Paid". and the AOS I-864 form was sent by post.
Earlier, there was a check box available showing that we could pay the IV Bill but today when my wife logged in to pay the IV Bill, that option is not showing there anymore.
Any ideas what could have gone wrong?
