still stuck at NVC

[Ellie-and-David 38]

Yes! Come over to the darkside.

We are all on AP over there, complaining about our petitions being held hostage.

38 days so far for me. Only another 12 or so to go :):)

Please follow uscanduals advice and come over and say hi on the above linked thread. We are a very supportive bunch and understand exactly how frustrated you are.

39 days at NVC for AP…. And counting the other thread is great and the link to that spread sheet gave me hope… Everyone should visit that Stuck @ NVC thread and the attached spread sheet…

called today, NVC says still in Additional processing stage. 23 days already, too frustrating

you're not alone 'mikef', me and my fiance now very depressed after we knew that its still on AP(Additional Process) let's pray it will get out from NVC soon.

As suggested you really should check out the 'official' stuck AP@NVC thread... http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=165644

there are a lot of people who are (or were) in this situation, and you can keep tabs on it by staying in touch with the "support group". You can also follow the link in my signature to see where you stand .. it's sort of like Igor's List for the AP@NVC situation. Both mikef and tÖm©êm are on the list at this point....

Good luck!

Free at last, Free at last, thank God almighty I am Free at last

We just got notice by email that our petition has been sent. We got a letter in March saying "will be sent within a week" but that was a lie. It took three weeks to find out that we were stuck at NVC in admin processing, as they continued to lie until reached by telephone.

Our total wait in AP = 43 days (March 18-April 30)

I have a feeling that NVC imposes an AP deadline on themselves that allows the consulate to get the file, send the Packet 3, and schedule an interview within the 4 month period for which the USCIS approval is good. Like, right at the very end of that 4 month period, and assuming the petitioner and beneficiary send stuff back quickly.

We had the consular case number, and we downloaded the Packet 3 stuff from the consular website and went and got the medical exam, police certificate, etc., while waiting for AP to finish. Now we expect to get Packet 3 around May 15 and send everything in the next day.

First off, congrats that you are out of AP at the NVC. I am currently at day 39. So you actually received an email from the NVC saying your case had been sent on to the foreign consulate? That's the first I have heard that they have done that. Most people have to call every week and ask but never get any notification.

Good luck on the rest of your Journey.

Oh, it would also be very helpful if you would fill-in your time line. We are now even tracking time stuck at NVC and your data is valuable.
