I reckon my IV fee will arrive at the NVC on Thursday morning ...

Is it possible they might generate next Monday night ?

anyone seen em generate in that sort of time frame ?

thanks

alan (poised with DS-230 in hand !)

Does the nvc person confirm the check has arrived and they are sitting on it instead of generating the form ?

I'll be calling them after work to find out if they did receive the money order I sent them for the IV bill. The USPS tracking thingy says they received it on 6/23 but who knows what NVC shows in their system.

Absolutely - I have seen posts on here where people had their check processed and the IV firm generated in a week or so - thats why i posted and asked if half a week was possible -

hum yes I hope the officer confirms your check is received at least - surely the form won't be later than next monday night- think i will scale down my hopes to 2 weeks from today - earliest ...

Ok, I just called the NVC and the lady told me that they did receive the IV bill payment and that the DS-230 will be generated some time this week. Which I translate to... next Monday. Uaaa, uaaaaaaa, uaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. wacko.gif

Well I bet you feel better as it's the 'not knowing' that hurts worst.

It's still a bind being delayed a week or so but at least you know where you stand.

You will be all go next Tuesday morning I bet.

I will not be - I am fairly confident that I can put mine on ice until a week on Tuesday at least..

The NVC is a frustrating thing but at least we can talk to them and get details - not like the USCIS ...

oh well - I will take Carolyn to the safari park near Bath this weekend and see if we can do something else to make the time go more quickly

Good luck for Tuesday - I reckon it's a cert !

Just noticed Erica's fee was entered into the system June7 and the DS-230 was generated june11 - 4 days later..

There is a teeny weeney tiny chance mine too might be generated monday night if it arrives at NVC today --- about 5% chance I rate it...

but Mono - me and Erica say yours WILL and we are NEVER wrong !

ok onwards and upwards !

Good and bad! Good that you know it got processed. Bad that you also know it will have to wait for the following Monday! At least it's a sure thing the DS 230 will be ready and you can mail it out next Tuesday!

I called in this morning as well and my AoS Bill payment was not entered into the system yet. Hopefully later this week it will be processed. It was delivered last Thursday July 5th. I'm also hoping to hear back on the DS-3032 email soon.

Saywhat is 100% right in not knowing is the worst. Hang in there! You're on the last leg for NVC process.

Usually, they generate DS 230 within 3-7 days of taking care of the IV Bill.

Alan, we did send the IV bill overnight on May 31st though. So, it arrived on June 1st and then it took them 6 days to enter it into the system, and then to the next monday to generate the DS-230.
So, if yours arrives today in St.Louis it might take until next wednesday to process it.
Not that I wanna deprive you of your 5% hope, pet!

As for the 'we are NEVER' wrong ... truer words have never been spoken wink.gif

I sure hope so. The main thing is that they recorded the payment in the system, I really didn't want to have to pay another $380, you know? Bad thing is I thought based on other people's timelines that we would have a case complete by now and have an August interview. At the rate we're going it will probably be late September. Augh.

Hang in there everybody. rolleyes.gif

ah right ! once I read it right I am never wrong (we)

So it's the 'getting it entered into the system' thats the trick - after that, the following monday is a racing certainty..

ok well i am hoping its there today - tomorrow latest - so a week on Tuesday fingers crossed

however, I am off to my pal's house in Harrogate monday night to pick up the three date versions of the IV cover sheet with nice blue logos on - just to be picky - so if I lose hope for Tuesday then I have no excuse for a pint on Monday over there...

Yes its a week on Tuesday come on !

Fedex say if i call em before 1pm they guarantee it in new hampshire by 10am next day ! that's incredible from the UK..so i will do that...

Then I will be plotting how to con the medical people into giving me a date before I get packet 3...

It's all scheming !

I am going to fill my time reading the florida motorcycle driving test guide... I already have my wisconsin car license which is a straight swap - plenty to do

then i need a nation wide bank with free checking.... I have my SS number so i might convince em to open an account now...

yes its all plotting !
