Received a RFE in the mail today.... for missing or addidtion information. I'm not sure if this is a what really a RFE or not but the sheet is called a Missing Doucument List.


The letter was dated Sep 16, 2006
IT says -
"The NVC has received the requested Affidavit of Support form (I-864) for this case. However, we are still waiting for the Immigration Visa Application (DS-230). Please submit the form according to instructions."

I pulled out my copies of my DS-230 package that I sent on Aug 17, 2006. I tracked my USPS confirmation # and it says the package was received at Portsmouth NH, 30801 on Aug 21, 2006.

I tried to call the NVC call center and of course could not get through to a real person and kept getting looped back to the automated system. I thought I'd give it a try to see what it says on there. I put in my case # and the automated system tells me that my case was approved Sept 20, 2006.

So my question is that is it safe to assume that somewhere between them sending out the RFE on Sept 16th and Sept 20th they found my DS-230 and my case is now approved???

I would definitely keep trying to reach a live person at NVC to verify all is true. With the federal government, it's rarely "safe to assume" anything biggrin.gif

Don't worry about the automated system mesage and the mail that you received. NVC sends out this mail once they finish reviewing the I-864. Just ignore it.

Hello First of all congratulations for the completion of your case on NVC, Ignore the mail, that happened a lot as simple male said that after reviewing your I-864 and there no problem found their computer will automatically ask for DS230 and an RFE will be issued. Same thing with me i received a RFE asking for DS230 but my case was completed.

Hi,

I received that same exact letter except mine was dated 15 Sep 06. I called them yesterday and was told to disregard the letter and that my case was completed and will be sent to the the Embassy. It's odd that they would let these letters go out when a DS-230 was received which is only going to cause confusion on both ends.
