NVC case completed people :)

we did it in 19 days without an RFE...i thought it took longer, i guess they were in a holiday mode and celebrating with the new president...oh well, i hope our interview clears with flying colors...

for those of you waiting...keep your paperwork ready while you are waiting for USCIS..we collected our paperwork and that helped a lot.

special thanks to LingLing's guide and Loto for their guides. it helped a lot....if not for these two very very important resources, i would still be waiting for DS-3032 to be cleared.

Great man! congrats! I hope to hear good by end of this week hopefully.

When I called to ask when the interview was going to be scheduled, they said the second week of February. Is that true? Do they schedule CR-1 interviews before second week of the month?

Maria - thats what i was told without even asking. the operator told me without asking, that the interviews are scheduled in the 2nd week of every month, conditions apply on a first approved, first served basis. the embassy/consulate can only accomodate so many interviews in a month. which kind of makes sense. so my advise to all waiting is not to delay by a single day as it might just cost you a whole month of waiting.

congrats cmnb!! very exciting. the NVC received my documents on the same day as yours, so i am hoping to be approved this week as well. an operator just told me that they were doing their "final review." i feel like they give out the same standard answers when they don't have any tangible update. we'll see.

good luck to everyone!

if all is well with your file and you sent in all the documents without any errors, (what the trend has been in the past few days) it should on average take about 3-4 days or so get a case complete. hopefully your case will be done by either friday or early next week. good luck! rest assured they are way faster than USCIS. i guess in part because, they are not actually reviewing the documents...they are just making sure that all forms have been correctly filled out and all the supporting documents are attached.

Within three days after I sent AOS and DS-230 our case was complete. Hopefully you hear some good news by the end of this week.

I just sent my DS230 packet today by UPS express mail. It took me a long time to send it since we did not have police certificates. Hopefully my case will be complete by next week. It has been very disappointing to wait so long.

Please help me on this.

I received this email from NVC, regarding to my choice of agent that I emailed to them. Is this mean they accept my Choice of agent already?

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Good Afternoon,

Your inquiry has been received at the National Visa Center (NVC).

The NVC has received the Agent of Choice selection. The Immigrant Visa

Application (DS 230) processing fee bill will be sent to the designated

agent on the case. The fee must be paid according to the instructions

before the instruction packet will be sent.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Also one more question, we paid AOS fee bill online yesterday, today IV fee bill seems to be able to pay online as well, should we pay it now or wait until AVR say that our IV fee bill is already generate? I talked to an operator, she said that they just finished reviewing our choice of agent today, she also said that IV fee bill will be sent out within a week or two.
