AOS is the affidavit of support line. When it disappears, that usually means the NVC has reviewed your file and approved.

To everyone who is under supervisor review,

 

please call them daily and try to show sad part of your story and ask them to forward your call to supervisor.

 

If supervisor is busy or in meeting then give them your number to call back.

 

If they call back or they forward your phone to supervisor then try to please them as well and show your sad part of your story and the main thing that only 1 or 2 documents needs a review and you already waited 10-11 months to get a checklist and file was under review as well.

 

Todd and Amanda are too good supervisors as per my experience. Amanda usually works in evening shift in NVC. and Todd in the morning shift. Mostly they have a meeting in morning so they won't come on call but they will call back in afternoon or evening. 

 

This is my personal experience as we went through checklist and requested for a supervisor review as they denied us expedite request. So supervisor helped us and she told we understand your situation and i will make a note for a supervisor review. Same supervisor came next week through a callback and she personally reviewed documents when my wife was on call. And in 1-hour status changed.

 

Hope this happens to all. But the main thing is to try and try to please them on call and to get a help from supervisor through by explaining your real sad story.

Thanks Cadtousa for writing this up.  I've known someone else who gave similar advice.. Since then, I always try to encourage those with a checklist to get in contact with a supervisor as it could help them decrease their processing time.. I've tagged the following. I hope they'll benefit from your advice.

Here is Cadtousa's story taken from her notes on the spreadsheet. 

 

I got a checklist in 10th week (June 09th) and then sent my proof of Canadian residency which they received on June 13th.After that we tried expedite but got rejected after 1 week saying we need to give fair chance to all applicants. My wife tried calling many times and spoke with supervisor and explained them our situation and checklist for just one document PR card. One nice lady (supervisor) told us she will send it for supervisor review. And we were able to get a callback from same lady after 4-5 days and she reviewed our document on phone and told us she will complete our case. detailed response can be found on June 2017 thread. also one more thing we used lawyer and she never helped us to get out of checklist.thank you all.

 

Good luck to you all. Hang in there folks.

#3, I am not sure with this one. #5, & #6 could be substituted with letters explaining how he is self employed (for each item they require). All he would need is to show that his income is enough and that he has a steady amount for the year (show his assets), so bank statements showing deposits etc for the past year or two would work, along with his tax transcripts and W2's.

I would like to add that in the letter written for #5, he could still list the points they ask for in the letter of employment, but still explain that he is self-employed.

For #6 bank statement seems more relevant to me ,but then #5 what can be the proof ?  ..  

 

Also I am more concerned for #3

as per NVC ,  I think I have to submit I-864A for including household member income to sponsor. still not sure

#3, since the NVC website says I-864A for joint sponsor I would have him fill that one out then.

 

As for #5, He would just explain that since he's self-employed, there's no one to write a letter of employment for him. (I think it's okay to be redundant and have two separate letters for missing items) In this letter he could list; how long he's been working for himself, it's a all-year job, and it's permanent. (and anything else that the NVC asks to be written in the letter of employment) That would be the "proof".
