Asia: SouthOriginal Birth Certificate
I sent my Original Birth Certificate which was issued by City District Government Lahore Pakistan. It shows my father's name, my mother's name, grandfather's name, age of my mother at the time of delivery, place of birth, date of birth and my permanent address. It is the only one I had, was accepted for Singapore immigration with no problems at all.
Received RFE / e-mail from NVC today that they require the Original / Certified copy of Birth Certificate.

I have no clue what else to send? I had my wife call them immediately and she told the operator I have sent the original one and a photocopy of it so the operator told her that he has marked it in system and has recommended it for another review which shall take another 10-12 days :(

Any advice from Pakistani member who went through this? If the birth certificate from City District Government Lahore Pakistan is not acceptable by them then from which authority do they require the birth certificate or which one did you send? Thanks.

Asia: SouthPolice record question for pakistan?

Yes i think its require, as my fiance did that....

All the sent civil documents were accepted by the NVC (without attestation from Ministry of Foreign Affairs) so I suppose it is not a requirement but just an optional thing to do.
I only had problem with the Birth Certificate which I have sent and now waiting.

Asia: SouthPolice record question for pakistan?

yes, he will need to get police certificate from all the places where he lived for more than six months and i would recommend you to get them attested from Foreign Affairs if possible because Pakistanis are usually put in AP for verification of documents.

I sent the Original Police Clearance Certificate and a notarized copy of it but did not get any of my documents attested by Foreign Affairs. Same was the case with the documents when I sent to USCIS. Would it be a problem?

Asia: SouthPolice record question for pakistan?

do you have to present the police your documents from the embassy for them to give your fiance the police certificate? Or can you get the police certificate by just asking for it?

1. Go to SP office and get the application form (English and Urdu).
2. If you have lived at more than one places in same city, get more Urdu forms accordingly, if not then just one will do.
3. Fill in the details on all forms.
4. Attach 3 passport photos, 2 copies of your National ID card and 1 copy of your passport biographical data page (first 2 pages of your passport) with English form.
5. Attach 1 passport size photo and 1 copy of your ID card with Urdu form.
6. Submit it back to the office and wait 7 days. You shall be given a receipt to receive the PCC on given date.
7. Go to office on given date, bring your original passport and ID card with you. You shall receive your PCC.

Note: You might be called to some Police Station for verification purpose. I was called and the guy simply asked me to show him my National ID card, what I did for a living and that was it.

Asia: SouthWaiting for NVC to schedule interview
My case has been completed at the NVC as of January 17, 2013.
When I called today, they say they are preparing to schedule the interview but cannot tell me how long it will take.

Any Pakistani applicants having experience with this?

1. How long it usually takes for them to schedule an interview or send the documents to U.S. Embassy in Islamabad?
2. Do they notify the petitioner/beneficiary through e-mail or snail mail ... and is packet 4 included in that email? (since Pakistan is not on the electronic processing list).
3. After the notification, how many days approximately do we have till interview?
4. How many days before the interview date the medical should be done and how many days the medical clinic / hospital usually takes to bring the report back to you?

Thanking you in anticipation.

Asia: East and PacificNeed help obtaining the Singaporean Police Certificate

Hi 

 

Got confirmation from NVC representatives twice within this week that Singapore police clearance is not required anymore by NVC for Non-Singaporeans. 

 

any others faced such reply? Please reply.

 

Thank you

Singapore Police Force does not issue COC to Singapore Permanent Residents or non-Singaporeans any more. You shall not need to provide any COC, NVC and the embassy do understand it. Still, You can take a printout of the attachment and send to them / bring with you at the time of interview. I was afraid for the same thing, the delay and NVC would not give me any letter. I contacted SPF and got this notification. I sent it to NVC along with other require documents and that was all. I was not asked for any COC from Singapore after that at any stage. However, I did have to provide them one from my native country.

The birth certificate for the household member has spelling mistakes like the mothers name spelling and missing letter in the last name.
please advise if that would be an issue or shall i try to collect another birth certificate which can cause a waiting delay of atleast 1 week. im confused

what country are you from. since diffrent countries have different thing. if you submit all your info in case complete only take about 2 weeks. if your embassy is not appoinment post it would take you about 3-5 months for interview after case complete. if it appoinment then it will be faster.


The beneficiary is in Pakistan!!!


Hi Ali786,

My husband is the beneficiary from Pakistan, so same country as yours. Our case was completed on May 20th and I called NVC and was told that they would schedule us an interview date the 2nd week in June,( NVC lady told me they schedule every 2nd week of the month for interviews, depending on when your case is complete) but the interview itself would be for July.

So, Pakistan is an Appointment Post, NVC will set up the interview date and send you and the Benef. the interview letter.
Hope this helps.

Aisha


Hi' Aisha,

Thanks for your reply. Thats nice to know that your case has been completed. I am just waiting for my employment letter and I am starting a new job next week so I can send my Affidavit Of Support. I already have sent my DS230 and they sent me a check list of missing documents for my I-864. Hopefully, this Friday I will send everything.
So you are saying that they are taking three weeks before they can schedule your interview date. I hope my wife gets an interview in July as well.
I wish you best of luck.

The US consulate will assign the interview date.

Fill in your timeline, visa type, and country details. So that VJers can better respond to your questions. Those who are going through the same consulate will be able to give you the best estimation of your interview data.


My Ds-230 was sent and received and all I have to submit is the I-864 by the end of this month. I was wondering after i send in the I-864 how long will it take at NVC since they have all other documents. As i have read on other people's post the NVC assigns the interview date with the consulate and send it to the consulate. Please advise

Hey All!!!
I was wondering if anyone can give me some sort of clue regarding the NVC timeline. How long does it take for NVC to approve after they receive all required documents. I think two weeks, please correct me if i am wrong.

Also, does NVC assigns the interview date or the US Consulate in the beneficiary's country. Say for example my case completes at NVC on 15th of June, so approximately when would be my interview date.
I would be grateful for any advise. thank you all and wish you all best of luck.

We just sent our DS-230 papers to the NVC--they arrived there yesterday. We´re about a week from being done. Then last night, I got an e-mail saying that our I-129f has been approved! What will most likely happen? We originally wanted the K-3, but when it didn´t get approved together we decided to pursue the CR-1. In the long run, it didn´t take much longer and it will be better afterward. But what will they do with our I-129f now?


Hi' i just read your post and have read similar one before as well. According to my understanding from all post on this site, you do not have to do anything and let it run as it is. Do not bother calling and trying to cancel it at this point otherwise it will cause confusions and may cause delays. You I-130 will be approved and will be given a interview from it. I hope I answered your question. I wish you all the best

You have to talk to the operator, or wait for your letter to arrive at your door. The AVR will only mention when your case is complete and when it has been forwarded to the embassy.


Ok thanks, i was asking since few people mentioned that we should call the NVC after 2 weeks of the case been completed to check for the interview date.
So i was just thinking do i have to wait two weeks or i can call now.

I am sorry to hear about your situation. I believe thats the way the system works though. USCIS was simply a call center and thus they could not give you any info. NVC was just a bus stop....now the DOS. Because of how sensitive the situation is, I believe they do not feel obligated to give out any information. Simply because bear in mind, this whole process is to make sure we are not terrorists...and for this reason they go along with 'guilty till proven innocent' and do not share their secrets with us.

Fair?

I don't think so. But who said life is?
