All requested files successfully "Uploaded" but site says "Not Submitted"

[Martin M 2]

Hi, it's my first post.

 

I'm applying for an IR-1 visa. I'm German, living in France and my wife (Petitioner) is an American citizen. I'm at the stage where I have to upload my civil documents. I'm also uploading my wife's Affidavit of Support (AOS), her tax return, and 1099s.

 

Problem with the website

 

Uploading works, since their tech issues were resolved early May, 2020. The documents show up as "Uploaded" 🙂

 

 

But here's the problem: On the main page it says (for a week now) "Not Submitted" 😮

 

 

Under supplemental documents I had uploaded additional 1099s. But as required documents they had only requested the tax return and the AOS (form I-864) so in theory nothing should have been missing. The more detailed message reads "At least one required document has not been uploaded to your case and/or has not been submitted for review."

 

 

Can somebody on this forum enlighten me as to why I'm seeing "Not Submitted" here?  

 

Thanks in advance,

Martin

Hi Martin,

 

May I ask you how did you do to upload the 2018 IRS file under the required AOS documentation? I'm not being able to upload the file there but I could do it under the "additional documentation".

Please disregard my questions. We tried with a different computer and we were able to upload the file.

 

Thanks and good luck with your process!

I assume you have only uploaded, not submitted. After you upload all the documents you want to send to NVC you have to click a button that says "submit" or something. You should find it on the page that your first picture is from. Make sure only to submit after all documents have been uploaded

Thank you @julianni. This makes sense. I had overlooked the red buttons:

 

After clicking on those, this is what comes up:

 

 

 

And the status has changed to "Submitted"

 

 

Thanks again,
Martin
