Congrats on case complete! kicking.gif

Remember though, you won't be getting any case complete email. Only those doing EP get them. Your next, and last, email from NVC will be of your interview date, which I hope you get soon!

And please, don't listen to the operators when they say so-and-so month is full. It's just another lie like they only schedule during the second week of each month. Unless they actually take the time and CHECK whether that month is full, I wouldn't believe them. As you continue to call each day, you'll notice they're just reading from a script.

Thank you, Saylin! Yeah I noticed the script reading already. I'm hoping for an early October or late September interview.

I've called them 3 times today and each time, a similar response to include the famous "slots open on 2nd week of each month for the following month."

I'll keep calling NVC daily. Next week, I'll be calling the USEM Manila :bonk: I figured they'll have my paperwork :rofl:

Hello Kim,

I hope I'm interpreting your question correctly. All I did was follow the instruction here... http://www.visajourney.com/consulates/index.php?ctry=Philippines&cty=Manila. Since my case was complete with NVC, I assumed USEM Manila have visibility of our NVC case number and NVC case completion. When I called, they did ask a lot of questions about the "visa applicant (w/c is my husband)" and hardly any info about me (the petitioner). The rep presented me with available interview dates in August, September and October.

Hope this helps and good luck on your journey! :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs:

Your bills will probably appear as PAID sometime next week. Make sure you have both packages ready to go asap when this happens.

But does it say 'PAID' on the payment portal?

And don't wait for NVC to send you things. That could take awhile. Just read the guides here on VJ for what you need for both packages.

Okay, I have a stupid question. I just got what for most people is the 'false' RFE, for the DS260 and supporting documents. However, since I /haven't/ sent it in (and don't plan to till November).. would I send in both the barcoded receipt page and barcoded RFE page?

I assume I would, but you know what they say about assuming. ;)

Holding my nose and jumping off the cliff.. hope I don't hit any rocks in the water.
