National Visa Center (Dept of State)	NVC scheduling Interview @ Embassy for IR1/CR1 visa	Is there any one on VJ that interview was actually scheduled by the NVC. This process is only for the IR1/CR1 visa applicants. I would like to understand the process. Once your case was completed at the NVC how soon was the automatic system updated to indicate that an interview had been scheduled? Did it list the date of the interview? Was the interview for the next month or was it a couple of months out. Did the NVC rep ever tell you that an interview date was scheduled or did you have to wait until you got a letter in the mail? Any insight that you can provide is greatly appreciated! For Jamaica the process of the NVC scheduling interviews was just implemented in June. I know there are other countries where the NVC was already scheduling interviews. Per the NVC interview are schedule the 2nd week each month for the next month. My case was completed Jun 25. I did not get a date in July. The NVC is not very helpful. And I can not seem to locate anyone who has been through this process Jenice Very good topic to start Jenice. I am curious as to this new process, because when I file at in November, I will be going through this new process. It would be enlightening to know the process and what to expect from the new change. I think this should be pinned in the Yardies thread. Proud a yu girl. Claire	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2007-08-13 15:32:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	NVC Holidays	Hello all that are at the NVC stage; Now that we have three major holidays coming up (thanksgiving, christmas and new years), does anyone know how NVC operates during this period. Does things slow down? Do they close down for a whole week or only on the holiday day itself? Just a thought that came into my mind on my drive home from work tonight, day dreaming about going home to Mike. As you can see by my timeline in my signature, his visa is being processed and the next two months are optimal times for him. Even though his is a relative, it follows the same path as the CR-1 visa petition. Any ideas or thoughts to share?

National Visa Center (Dept of State)	IV fee	Thanks for the suggestions. I went ahead and e-mailed them last night, but I will also include a letter with the IV fee when I return it this week.	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2007-11-19 10:54:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	IV fee	Hey you guys, thanks for the response. Due to my utter excitement and being overwhelmed, I did not read the cover letter and each bill in its entirety. It states on each of the bill:-- "If this fee bill is not for the principal applicant and you are listed on the petition but not travelling with the principal applicant, you must provide that information to the NVC immediately. Do not pay this fee." I think that this means I only have to pay for the principal immigrant seeing that he is the only one travelling. YAH What do you think is the best way to notify the NVC of this change? Letter or e-mail or phone call? I know it is a pain to get through to an operator, but I think I will e-mail them and try calling them in the meantime. I plan on sending the IV bill this Friday, because I will be working Mon-Wed from 7am to 7pm and will not be able to get to the bank or USPS until they reopen on Friday. Last Friday, I got out of work at 12n and thought about getting the MO, but shrugged off because I wanted to be 100% sure about the fees and not having the MO too long. Not that I don't trust the advice and info I read on VJ but I am always skeptical.	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2007-11-18 18:39:00

National Visa Center (Dept of State)	IV fee	Hello all I need some I received the IV fee bill today in the mail. When Mike's dad had filed for him back in 2000, he was filed for as married and added his three children to the application. He is now separated and one of the children lives in Canada with his mom and the other two will not be accompanying him when he comes. He wants them to follow him after he comes here. I was appointed as the agent and got the IV fee bill today. I was surprised to see four bills in the envelope. Seeing that the children will not be accompanying him, do we only pay his visa fee bill, or do we need to pay them all now? Thanks in advance for your help in advance, you guys are great.	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2007-11-17 22:51:00

Hey Wanda; I recently received and submitted what I think is packet #3. Since you are a CR-1/IR-1, all your docs will need to be submitted to the NVC being that Kingston is now an appointment post. They will send you a letter directing you to the DOS site and you will need to download the DS-230 (if you have not already done so) and submit a copy with only the second page signed, along with originals of beneficiary's birth cert, police cert, marriage cert. and biographic page of passport (page with his pic). I think that was all. Please make sure your SO signs the police cert. I think I might be getting a RFE for the unsigned one I sent in. I had called the NVC and was told it does not say anywhere that it has to be signed. Good luck girl	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2008-01-28 12:13:00

I got what sounded like a RFE fmessage from the automated line and when I called NVC I was told that Questoin #20 is missing info. I looked at my copy and found the error. I neglected to write in the to info on the address line. I should have written in "present" because that could not be entered on the computer being that section only accepts numbers. I am asking because I would go ahead and mail it to my SO before I get the actual letter from the NVC. Now I M HEring about needing to submit pictures. HUH??? I am trying to do this ASAP considering the mail turnaround time to and from Ja. Although they stated they mailed the RFE on 1/25, I highly doubt it. Even though it was generated that day it doesn't necessarily mean it was mailed. We all know they wait for a crate to become full before they mail anything out. Hi, No need to worry about the pictures, unless they also send you an RFE for those. To answer your first question, yes, the original you first sent to NVC is returned to you for correction, they will also have stamped the first page with a number (I don't think this is really significant). If I remember correctly they only sent back part 1 - which is where the error is. Anyway, no reason not to send your SO the corrected copy now, send her/him parts 1 and 2 just in case they return the whole form. Good luck! Well Trailmix; I got the letter yesterday and they did not return the original. They just sent a letter stating that question #20 is incomplete. The letter did not mention anything about pictures, but something about police certificate. I called NVC last night to make sure they have the certificate and the operator said "we now have a new requirement that 2 passport pics be submitted with the DS-230." I was like "I found that out" and she laughed. I asked her at that poit if anything else was needed and she said that that was all. They slay me. It just means that if someone had not mentioned it in another thread I would not have known to ask Mike to send it to me. When I called him this am to let him know that I got the letter, he already mailed the newly signed form along with the pictures as I had discussed with him over the weekend. It just simply means that I would have gotten another RFE for missing docs/info. Claire Edited by clairern, 05 February 2008 - 06:41 AM.	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2008-02-05 06:39:00

Sorry about all the questions, but I geting very anxious and nervoius, although I triple checked the forms before I sent them out express mail yesterday. Thanks in advance for all your help	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2008-02-21 19:43:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)	Automated Phone Service Not Updated?	QUOTE (AtlantiCat @ Feb 22 2008, 07:44 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I received my approval/NOA2 on January 30th, and I've been calling the NVC for a week and a half trying to see if they've received my paperwork from CSC. Today in the mail I received a letter from NVC dated February 19th, saying they'd received the petition and where they would be forwarding it (within a week, they say), plus my USCIS case number and my new NVC case number. However, when I call the automated phone system and input either number, the pleasantly bland white male voice tells me there's no record of my case. Has anybody else had this experience? What's the point of having an automated phone system that doesn't work? I didn't notice another topic on the subject so forgive me if somebody else has asked this question all ready. From what I have been reading here on VJ, K-1's do not stay at the NVC long enough to get into their automated system. The letter you got gives you the info you would probably hear on their automated system.	clairern	Female	Jamaica	2008-02-22 20:11:00
