Submitted all the documents on May 30th. Still waiting for CC. I am tired of waiting! 😣😢

Just be patient. It's almost the end of the process. We have already waited for so long and soon we will just remember it like a bad dream or a nightmare for some of us😉

No idea as I'm still waiting for my cc! I would just call and ask them, but from what I've read others say I would assume you need to bring them to your interview and you should be automatically put in line for an interview and they should contact you when you get one. But again I would just call to confirm I'm happy for you!

Thank you so much for this information. Wish you a speedy CC! And best of luck in the further process!

Yes, on this tracker it shows At NVC. Is it really a CC?😀

Thank you very much. It's just that I haven't met my husband since 13 months now. It's so frustrating. I hope and pray that we all get to be with our spouses very soon. 😊

If it says 'at NVC' on this link, then your case is complete otherwise it always says 'at NVC' on CEAC website.

You should use this site: https://ceac.state.gov/ceacstattracker/status.aspx If it changes from "submit requested documents" to "at NVC" then that means a cc  It always says at NVC on the page where you submit documents for pivot cases.

Thanks for that link!

 

My case has been stuck, because they're requiring additional information!!! Nice to know that tidbit

 

I just forwarded your link to my immigration lawyer. Will let her figure it out.

Hello all,

 

Does the status on CEAC website change after uploading and submitting the documents online?

 

We submitted all NVC documents (AOS, DS, civil,...etc) online using CEAC website about 7 days ago. However, the CEAC status page still shows the status below (please see below).  I'm confused as there is conflicting information. Are we required to send the same package again via mail? The status below says they are expecting me to mail them a package (step number 5). But on https://nvc.state.gov/submit it said I can upload it online in my case. 

 

Here's the status I'm getting when checking on CEAC website:

No, it will continue to say that until you receive a case complete. Then it will read At NVC. Does all of your documents read submitted on CEAC? If so then you’re all good. And by all good I mean to wait for a case complete.
