Hi everyone,

 

So my wife and I just got our case number over the phone and we are very excited but of course now looking for the next steps. We went to ceac and attempted to update the emails and it's not working. We want to pay the fees but we called our lawyer who told us they would email instructions. What I would like to know is do we have to wait a little before we can do any editing on ceac or can we just start with paying the fees?

Do you mind me asking what your approval date was. Our case was approved on September 23rd and The CEAC says they do not recognise the case. I called NVC and they said they haven’t received it. I was interested to know how long it takes to get from USCIS to NVC it’s very worrying in case it’s gone astray.

thanks

If the police report/documents are in the same language as an official language of the country the interview will take place in, no, no translation needed. If docs are in language different than official languages in interview country then yes

No. I submitted an online request because our PD is June 6 2018 so outside normal processing times. I got an email reply telling me it had been approved Sept 23rd and sent to NVC.

we didn’t get an Approval Notice, email or online case update from USCIS so we started to worry. I’ve spoken several times to USCIS who just keep saying it was sent to NVC on Sept 23rd. I spoke a couple of times with NVC who say they have no trace of our case. We are really worried.

Oh yeah USCIS told us the same thing that it was sent from July 31st but after pressing we found it it wasn't actually sent until September 27 after speaking to a tier 2. After that we started calling NVC who finally confirmed receiving it on Oct 15. So you might want to call back USCIS to confirm the exact day it was sent

Thanks so much. You have reassured me a little. I will definitely try and get through to a tier 2 officer tomorrow. Any tips on how to do this? I’ve had difficulty even getting through to a human who are obviously nothing more than call handlers. Yesterday I asked for a tier 1 and they called me back 8 hours later. The officer was unhelpful and couldn’t really be bothered. He said there was nothing he could do and told me to keep trying NVC then hung up on me. If I can get through to speak to someone do I need a special reason to get transferred to a tier 2 ? Sorry to bother you so much with all the questions

Good for you all! I guess I'm the only left waiting, I paid my IV fee last Wednesday 31st, it cleared from my bank account the following day. But it still shows in process. I've called them twice this week and I also submited an inquiry form. I'm so anxious now.

Thank you! Hang in there. Keep checking the site. I checked 5 times during the day before it actually switched over to paid.

Guys, does it matter if we fill out the AOS form on the computer rather than filling it with a pen? Other than the signature

Also if I've never filed taxes, where do I submit my written statement
