Congratulations! Since you just got your case generated recently, Are you able to see both fees from your payment summary- THE AOS FEE AND IV FEE- when you log into your account? 

This is what I see: IV fee is available but AOS fee is blank right now

Still waiting for nvc approval. We submitted our documents on 10/4. I called the nvc yesterday and hung up after an hour long wait. So frustrating...

Rather than going with 1040 form , pay stubs and W2's..... now it is preferred to send them IRS transcripts. That are considered more authentic now and you don't have to put too many documents...... May be some other can also put a suggestion on this.

Yes, call them! They assigned our case number on a Wednesday and we didn't find out about it until the following Tuesday when we called in. Good luck!

I am not a lawyer and nothing I say is or should be taken as legal advice.

We are having the same issue with CEAC and the fees so I filled out an ask query form using that ask nvc option on the website. I also just got off the phone with someone at NVC and was told to fill said query form (informed her that that was done prior to calling) and then she said they seem to be having issues on their end regarding the AOS fee link not showing so she put in a note for supervisor review but said it’s nothing they can fix as IT will have to go in and fix whatever is causing the issue. She also mentioned that it can take up to 6 weeks for this to be resolved but as the issue is on their end it hopefully shouldn’t 😒

🤞🏽Hopefully this review does not actually take 6 weeks

We got our case number today, the issue now is we were only able to pay the visa fees but nowhere to click to pay AOS fees. Please has anyone experienced this? Or are we suppose to pay that later?

Congrats on the case number. We are also facing same issue. We got our case number on the 29th and the system only shows Iv fee, No AOS fee payment options.
