Helllo NVC filers,

I received my NOA confirmation on 5/28.

Hope NVC moves faster than USCIS did!

It's funny, you wait less time here but it seems like twice the wait. Or after USCIS we are just totally crazy hahaha :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Welcome to the gang. :)(F)(L)(F)

America, Give Me My Spouse/Fiancé !

I agree and I'm about to need one very soon, I'm worried because he was following my timeline we are just a couple of days apart and he never came back. So I'm a bit worried why he didn't come back. :( Praying all is well. (F)(L)(F)

Austin's on vacation and taking a break from the stress. Don't worry :)

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.

I remember when I first started in the NVC March thread there was so much positivity because they were moving quicker, with no backlog. And now it feels like the opposite.

But with the working "overtime", hopefully they will clear things up and everyone will start moving at a quicker pace again in no time.

how long was it taking in march to review mail?

how long was it taking in march to review mail?

Generally around 14-16 days. Anecdotally, both my packages took two weeks to approve from when they were scanned in.

Hi Saylin

Just wanted to say a big thank you for everything you do.

We are the family that instigated the NYTimes article which hopefully did a little good in highlighting the situation.

Yay! Good for you!

And hello to all on our 3rd NVC monthly thread... I'm not holding out too much hope on it being our last, after the screwup with our DS261 and no IV fee invoiced yet, and now this stupid backlog catching up with us again...

But with a great deal of luck, we may get through it pretty soon!

Good luck to all and congrats on all the case completes and interview dates that we got last night! So happy for all of you!

Hi nightingalejules

I have been alongside you this whole ride.

Also waiting for our IV invoice. Been waiting since 8th May. Hopefully get it this week.

By the way love your photo from your wedding day.

June 20th will be my husband and I's 17th wedding anniversary. Looks like I will be celebrating with the kids while he is on his own in US
