Hi .. i have called USCIS many times .. and they always have a different issue at the beginning of July they said the process for my NOA2 was 5 month.. and now its turns out that .. this office is working on the cases from January 20, 2014...This is starting to get me worry ... :crying::cry:

don't sweat the public-relations speech

dont sweat the timelines unless you are over 6 months....

If you click the TimeLine link for me, I detail everything in our case and as you can; see they basically said the same thing to me also. It is just standard.

I know .. but it starts to get frustrating. .. i hate the goodbyes every single time i have to leave my husband.... my lifetime bestfriend behind... hopefully i will receive it soon .. after all hope is the last thing to loose...

Hi guys

My wife paid the AOS fee but has not submitted the I-864 form yet as she is waiting for 2014 IRS tax transcript. I somehow thought that the IV application processing fee would become available for payment but it has not. The instructions said to submit he AOS form + IV application together.

When is the IV Application Processing Fee going to become available?

Do we have to submit the i-864 form ( with attached required documents such as proof of income, tax transcripts) first, before the IV fee becomes available ? Or can we send the AOS i-864 + IV DS-261? but I can not get to the DS-261 unless the fee is paid. Am I missing something?

Thanks for your replies.

Congratulations Kaka26, I found a link somewhere in visajourney which walks you through all the steps. Take a look at the following:

http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/LingChe_NVC_ShortCut#4._Getting_your_NVC_number

I can provide you summary based on my understanding because I just went through all this like a month and half ago.

NVC will take about 15 to 20 days to receive your case and record it in their system. They will than assign NVC case number and Invoice ID number. Afterwards they will send you a letter.

The total amount of time it took for me to actuall receive the letter after USCIS had sent the case to NVC was 1 month and 14 days.

What I could recommend is, call NVC after 20 days and try to get your case number and invoice ID number. Because for some reason, NVC takes long time to actually mail out the letter with instructions.

After you receive the NVC case number and invoice ID number, you should proceed to www.ceac.gov website and complete DS-261 form, Pay AOS fees and submit Affidavit of support documents.

This is where my case is at right now and I am working on the documents.

Thanks
