National Visa Center (Dept of State)RFE usually arrives - in how many days?

<!--quoteo(post=2835108:date=Apr 13 2009, 06:05 PM:name=oceansea1)--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (oceansea1 @ Apr 13 2009, 06:05 PM) <a href="index.php?act=findpost&pid=2835108"><{POST_SNAPBACK}></a></div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->i got one on friday, now just waiting for the hard copy so that i can mail it back to them with the requested info...but not sure how long it takes...<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Mine was mailed out on April 2nd, but I have not received it up to this day. What you do is reprint the cover sheet for either AOS or DS230, and mail the missing document with that.

Today is April 13th and I still have not received a hardcopy of the RFE. My case was completed last week.

Bottom line - don't wait for hardcopy. Just find out what the RFE is for and mail it with the barcode cover letter.

Good luck!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)NVC sais USCIS typo-error
hi Crazy888.. just want to ask coz we also got a typo error.. we already got the NOA2 and was calling NVC..unfortunately my fiance's mom wrote the wrong month of my birthdate on the I-129 form.. we sent them a letter of correction and corrected copy of the form including my passport copy. The question is DO WE NEED TO INCLUDE THE USCIS RECEIPT NO? The mail was already sent and only the both of our date of birth are indicated in the letter.. Is this okay? Also the service agent said only said that we only need to send them a copy of my passport. Please help me on this...

National Visa Center (Dept of State)NVC sais USCIS typo-error

same thing with ours, we emailed them asking our case number after a few days they replied containing our case number but a wrong middle name of the petitioner , we called NVC to confirm if it was a typo error or its really in the system we found out it was really wrong , so the operator asked us the same papers together with the request letter for change .. after we mailed it out we called NVC for confirmation if they receive the request the operator advice us to call after 20 working days but good thing is after 2 weeks we got a letter from NVC containing same case number and a right middle name ..after you mailed out the papers needed take time to wait for their response for you to know if things are all ok..goodluck..

National Visa Center (Dept of State)CORRECTION OF DOB
Also, they would not give the case number because it does not match the date of birth on their file to the DOB that we were telling them, thats why they asked for a copy of my passport so they can correct it on their system.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Mistake made on I-129F. Will This Cause a Delay?
sir we got our noa2, my fiance called nvc and she could not match my date of birth.unfortunately, my fiance's mom made a mistake in filing up I129 form, there was a typo error. So the agent told us that us to send a leter of correction and my passport copy to nvc. Letter has been sent but we did not include the uscis receipt no. I also sent them an email regarding the correction but i included the reciept no. Do u think that wil cause a delay in the processing? How many days should we wait to call again?

http://www.uscis.gov...form/i-864p.pdf

Here is a link to the embassy letter with their requirements (and links): http://photos.state....3__rtf2_005.pdf


Most who have went the co-sponsor route with USEM have also used the I-864

Philippinescheap tickets/animal travel

BT-TravelStore has the cheapest rates I have seen on the web;. Usually saves $50 plus from what I have gone through. Delta seems to offer decent flights from Manila as does American Airlines. AA goes through China and Delta through Japan. Having a pet is no fun. I did this while on assignment. You will need to make sure all your documents, shots etc are pre-approved. I actually hired a pet transporter and it still was a pain as I could not take my cat on board with me. She flew separate due to Cathay Pacific rules at that time.
Double check the airline requirements prior to booking your ticket. Each one has their own set of rules. Also check your layover countries to ensure all your documents for your animal are okay there. It all can be done. I am just trying to keep you from having your pet quaranteened.

PhilippinesCFO Pre Departure Oruentation

The entire situation is a little confusing due to changes in CFO process. Mikey and Lizzie I think you should call CFO to find out from them directly - that way you are sure where to go. My fiance wasted days going to the wrong place and also not going early enough to get 1 of the 12 spots available each day.


OK BUT DO THEY ONLY ACCEPT A FEW SLOTS A DAY?

PhilippinesCFO Pre Departure Oruentation

She does not need the PDOS, she needs the Guidance & Counseling Seminar. There is a difference and make sure she tells them the right one.


WHICH ONE IS WHICH.. I PLAN TO TAKE CFO IN KATIPUNAN, QC BECAUSE ITS NEAR MY PLACE .. IS IT STILL OPEN?

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAbout I 184/I 134

The U.S. Embassy accepts joint sponsors on a case-by-case basis. It's a 50/50 gamble whether they will accept your joint sponsor.

If I were in your shoes, I would submit the petitioner's I-134 and the joint sponsor's I-864.

Also, the petitioner should attend the interview.


Hi thanks for the reply... what if the petitioner is not present, would it be a problem?
