I will be calling NVC later tonight but do you think it's fake?

They said I didn't provide the Police Record or Photographs(passport style) when I did. It was in the pdf I sent them. I just checked it and it was there.... Either it's fake or they're daft..

Thank you!

Likely they're telling you that you have to provide those at the interview. At least with the photographs it should say something about they don't accept scanned photos.

As for the police record, I would double check on that!

Hmm, figured that. It kind of sucks, I have to wait to call because I can't get through their line right now.

Haha, I even provided the envelope it came in with the police's address and stuff. I'm not sure what's wrong with it. It looks fine in the pdf, it's right after the birth certificate's translation... If anything I thought they'd say something about the birth certificate being in French.

Well who knows, maybe they have some new hires that can't seem to get their brain around things? The NVC seems to be making more mistakes lately.

Okay, it wasn't fake. They're just utterly stupid. *sigh* I have to RESEND it again. At least we're EP but still.... Do you have any idea how long it takes for a case complete after RFE?

Up to 20 days again after you send the checklist. sad.png

Yay. :/ Sent it last night. Do I need to scan the back of it too? It's just blank paper...

The guy I talked to on the phone said he marked it as recieved and would have someone look into it but I don't think the customer reps have that power...

Everything is just so frustrating with immigration. My husband's last EI check is next week. After that we're stuck sucking off our small savings account. He's tried to find work for over six months after being layed off but no one will hire him. He even went to the Employment service that the government has to help people find jobs and they told him to get lost. I want to work but with my permit status, it's illegal to work in Canada at this point.

I just hope life gets better soon! Getting tired of everything back firing.

The AOS documents were accepted the 7th, the person on the phone told me to email asking the original sent date to be honored but told me not to go to a supervisor....

SO, I just emailed to Supervisor Sue about the situation and how it causes over 20 days of delay. I hope that she honors the date the document was originally sent.

Update: A month later and still no news. I sent the supervisor request but no one responded nor was there any auto-response so I sent three more copies with different head lines until finally I received an auto response - after taking a special character out of the title. I received an email last Friday stating our expedite request was being reviewed, so far no news on that either and the email it was for was one of the emails that had no auto-response - so I'm pretty much just done with all of NVC's #######. Is there something we can do about this whole- "it takes 20 days to look at one piece of paper that we already looked at" thing??? Because if not- NVC is just going to get worse.

It's insulating how ridiculous this delay is and when I try to explain to my parent-in-laws why we're staying longer than we're supposed to of, they don't understand anything. Even my parents in the US are demanding me to tell them when we're moving back. :/ All I can tell them is it's looking like November.

Tell your family it's the government. It happens when it happens. What do they not understand about this not being under your control? /facepalm

The NVC will always tell you "20 business days" They're very slow right now and seem to be wanting all of that time. At least the interview, when it happens, is really painless.

Haha! Tried that. It's hilarious because they think the government is supposed to be licked-split. I like how they act offended and mad when they aren't even the ones waiting. I think the only one close to understanding anything is my oldest brother and that's just because he's a deputy so he has police and immigration knowledge.

I hope so! Knowing our luck, we'll lose a document or two on the subway ride over there. What is good to bring the stuff in? I have a giant envelop but it won't fit everything. I read somewhere not to bring any bags but I'm not sure how valid that is...

As for this whole thing- I think I'm going to break down and call them tonight instead of waiting for an email.
