NVC Filers - August 2014

[dilmera 124]

U will be together soon they are still scheduling fr sept I think. Who knows u might get super lucky and get cc today and interview in sept it's my second anniversary this January. Praying that I atleast make to this one

It's my second anniversary too in January and I was thinking since this process took so long to complete, why not enter US after two years of marriage to qualify for the 10-year green card. I am assuming we might get a November interview the way things are moving, that is if there's no checklist. So it would be better to wait two months and then enter US.

WOHO!!!!

FINALLY CASE COMPLETE!!! IT'S THE BEST NEWS FOR US IN 6 MONTHS!!! WE'RE SOO HAPPY!!!

Congratulations!

so after hanging on this thread for months and reading the wiki, you sent the tax returns WITHOUT the W2's & 1099's? The Sumner's got checklisted for W2's that didn't even exist....

If I were in your situation, I would have sent the W2's the second I realized I screwed up. Have you been sitting around all this time hoping you won't get a checklist? " so let's see what happens now"

Her husband didn't "listen" to her. My man is the same. During USCIS stage we got an RFE for the marriage record in native language. When I told him we should send the same to NVC, he was adamant it won't be needed. It took almost 4 months for the file to reach NVC and when the time finally came to send in IV package, I asked him to include the marriage record and he did, totally forgot he didn't want to include it, LOL.

I just saw your timeline, you had a prolonged NVC stage and that minor error cost you almost two months to case complete, sheesh!

*waves* Still here. Still hanging in there. Not much else to say that hasn't already been said but just felt like checking in!

KATIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I was worried about you.... I hope you're just waiting for a CC... GOOD VIBES FOR YOU !!!

Her husband didn't "listen" to her.

That's sad. My husband and I worked together. Way back in the I-130 stage, we got everything together and I kept it all here until we needed it for the NVC. All I had was time when we were waiting for the I-130. I am the USC and I spent hours reading about the process. I assume he could have read Saylin's WIKI at the very least. It is such a shame to lose time for "not listening"

Hi dilmera, so to be clear, my husband asked for his tax return from this website:Anyurl="http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript"]http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Get-Transcript[/url]

We can that without W2's and 1099's?

thank you so much for your help cause on their pdf to explain how to fill the form it is very confusing (at a point they say that w2 are not needed if we have IRS transcript, but at the end of the pdf they say to join W2s...

Hi, my husband printed out the transcripts and he didn't tell me about any instruction to attach the w2. We sent in the transcripts without the w2. Any knowledgeable member comment on this whether w2 still required if sending in transcripts.

I am posting this again in case y'all didn't see my last post. There has been a few posts about police certificates.

and just an FYI, the police certificate in Costa Rica says its valid for 3 months BUT the embassy says its only valid for 30 days. That is why ours wasn't needed at the NVC stage. My husband questioned the 3 month validity date and they told him its good for only 30 days. Call the embassy and ask about your police cert. Don't rely on what is printed on it

was just reading this on another forum......

Laurel Scott Chat Log 8/6/2014

Laurel: Good morning everyone.

Laurel: The big update at the moment is that the

NVC

is finally admitting that it is overwhelmed. The agency is now sending notices to everyone stating that their response time is 60 days from the date they receive any document, inquiry, or form. While this newly announced response time is frustrating, it hopefully indicates that the

NVC

will be more careful about reviewing files before sending requests for evidence (

RFE

). The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) is in the midst of putting together an assessment of attorney complaints regarding the

NVC

. The

NVC

has had a long history of sending RFEs for documents that were already submitting and do not describe what, if any, problem there was with the already-submitted documents, BUT recently the frequency with which this occurs has skyrocketted. AILA does not put together assessments of attorney complaints unless there is a spike in problems, so AILA's actions indicate unusual, widespread problems at the

NVC

.

Laurel: The best advice for people going through

NVC

processing is to expect for it to take several months and not to be surprised if you get an

RFE

for a document that was already submitted. In the past

NVC

processing would normally take one to three months. You should now expect for it to take three to seven months. This may present problems for people from countries that require a police certificate as it is possible that your police certificate will expire while your case is pending at the

NVC

and you will have to get another

My husband did not send his returns. Just his w 2 and 1099s for the last three years. I did tell him to get his returns online but he is too hardheaded and wont listen to me. I dont know if we are getting a checklist for that O really pray that we dont. I cant control that situation anymore

Another one who's got a hard headed husband. We should create a separate hard headed husbands thread and have fun during this wait for NVC.

it takes 3 seconds to print the transcripts from the website. If I were you, I'd send them with another AOS barcode coversheet. I would bet you're getting a checklist. You don't have to send W2's with the transcript HOWEVER, the embassy asked me to bring mine to the interview. But NVC didn't want it . and I only sent my 2013 tax transcript . I never provided 2012 /2011 income amounts not even on the AOS.

Lemme say that I finally decided to stop being a passive observer of this forum and create a VJ account because of you, Soloenta. You and some of the other members on here are so much fun that I just had to say something to you

Thank you all for making this very painful journey bearable.

My 60-day letter says documents were received on 25th June which is when the bulk of IV checklist response was mailed. However the Singapore Police certificate which took about 15days to complete was received on 18th July. Just keeping my fingers crossed that since they are still reviewing my earlier documents, they will include the Singapore report as well and not give it an additional 60days from 18th July.

Wish us all a happy ending to this immigration ordeal.

they review the mail as it comes in. They will not go look for a piece of mail to complete a file. Your last scan date is the date the police certificate was scanned. JULY 18TH.
