NVC requesting correction on AOS

 Share

Recommended Posts

So our 60 day NVC waiting period came to an end today so I called to inquire about the status of our case. I was told that there was one correction needed on our AOS and that a notice was sent out 2 days ago. Apparently our attorney put the wrong dollar amount in Part 6 item 10. They also said that we didn't include the Police Clearance Certificate which we actually did.

I spoke with my lawyer and he checked the AOS and admitted that he did in fact make a mistake on part 6 line 10. Now I'm wondering how long it will take for the NVC to review our case again. Will it take another additional 60 days? I haven't been more upset about the way this whole process works than I am right now.

The idea that we might have to wait another 60 days is torture. On top of that the fact that we might have to get another Police Clearance Certificate is just adding insult to injury.

I really hope that this doesn't delay us even further, what a nightmare.

More than likely will be 60 days from the time they receive the corrected documents. Happened to me and my wife because I missed 1 block of information on the I-864 form and my wifes passport for Colombia was going to expire in 4 months and they wanted at least 1 year remaining on that so we had to re-do the form with the correct info filled out and get her a new Colombian passport. This simple mistake tacked on probably 2.5 months to our wait for her interview...really sucks but what can you do when the fault is your own?

Yeah, it sucks! For the most part our lawyer has been pretty good, I can't believe he messed up like this... at least he admitted to it. But that doesn't make the situation any better.

We r going thru the same process, we had a mistake on our AOS too. They said we hve to wait another 60 days for a review, we r 21 days in, feels like 21years. It's hard being away from each other it hurts like hell but I guess we don't hve a choice, yes its like torture. Next month will b our one year wedding anniversary, and it will also b one year since I physically saw my husband :'( . I Hope we all hear something soon from NVC.

So sorry, kselman100. You aren't alone. I was also given a checklist for an AOS error. Responded the very same day by email with a corrected form. Got a receipt from NVC three weeks later, saying that they will need 6o days to review it. Called NVC to ask whether the 60 days could start from the day they actually received it (date stamp of email), rather than when they opened it. Nope. Bureaucratic nightmare? Yes.

Hi Canadian Tired, did you file electronically or send through snail mail? Just asking because I had to resend tax transcripts and I am using EP. I received a response within a couple of weeks saying they had received the transcripts and to wait at least 60 days from that date stated in the email. See below.

Dear Sir/Madam,

The National Visa Center (NVC) received your documents on 20-OCT-14.

We are currently receiving an increased number of approved petitions from U.S. Citizenship and

Immigration Services. As a result, we are experiencing increased review times for documents

received.

We expect it will be at least 60 days from the date we received your mail before we complete the

review of your documents. We will notify you when we review your documents.

We are working to reduce these processing times and we appreciate your patience.

Sounds like they have changed the process yet again?

Hi Dualie,

Yes, filing EP through Montreal. Our checklist was dated Oct 8. NVC replied on Oct 29, stating that our email response was "received" Oct 28 (it was actually emailed to NVC on Oct 8).

I am not sure whether they have changed any processes... is there an organization to all of this? Saw your timeline... seems like they sent you a receipt for documents they had already said they received...?

Yes, they have sent me a couple of duplicate emails with different dates. This was right around the time they began requesting everyone send their AOS and IV in one packet. I am thinking the logjam is building there, and they still aren't completely sorted out with the new process yet. The wait times seem to be increasing, as I have read a few posters who mention being told that the wait time could reach upward of 90 days. I guess we just have to wait and see..
