make an appointment now, we received an email from clinics, they are started accepting applicants who needs electronic medical report.

USCIS has authority over the petition only, while NVC just functions as document screener, not approver.  The consulate is the sole approving authority for visas.  So until you provide what the consulate requires, your mom will not get a visa.
 

From my understanding, this is not really a flat out denial. The officer just requires the above documents requested, before they can further process this case. Better to think of it like a temporarily denial, I guess.
 
1) Medical Report
2) PHIL (Philippines Police Certificate?)
3) SING PC (Singapore Police Certificate?)
4) Proof of Identity (and Name Change Document if she changed her names)
 
 

I emailed Consulate about the interview and it is confirmed.
 
No medical exam yet. 

Hey, I think the Singapore consulate has appointed a new panel clinic. Contact them for more info asap. 

thanks for sharing @bellez214
 
to summarize
7 days from DQ to get interview letter notification
48 days from DQ to interview (41 days from interview letter notification date)

I have a response from the Consulate and please help me to understand this. 
- We are amid transitioning to new panel clinics. Unfortunately, there are no panel clinics available currently. We will contact you once we have appointed our new panel clinics. We will still require applicants to have a clear medical examination before they come for their visa interview. We do not accept medical examinations performed by panel clinics outside Singapore.-
 
this part please help me to understand. 
 
“If your visa appointment has been scheduled and the medical report is not available on the Thursday before the visa appointment date, you may consider your appointment to be cancelled. Please contact us two weeks after you have completed your medical examination.”
Dear Sir / Madam,
 
We regret the inconvenience caused by the liquidation of Pivot Medical clinic.

I will, definitely. I am waiting for the response by the Consulate in Sing.

Because that was part of the I-130, which was approved.
 
She will need the originals of her documents submitted to the NVC under the IV section, plus copies of documents you submitted under the AOS section.

I went for an infopass
and good thing the IO changed it back to the name I want it to be on my citizenship certificate/ passport. It was a big relief. 

here I am counting....
12 days more to go before interview day!
God bless us all!

Doesn't matter whose information/signature is at the bottom, whether they're agent or not. Heck, there really doesn't even need to be that at the bottom since the cover letter in itself is completely optional. The important part of the cover letter (the whole point) is the list of what documents are being included. Everything else is just fluff really.

Yey! Congratulations! You deserved it!
Wish and pray that you will be having more blessings to come! ( including babies )

And thanks to all who wished me luck!! About an hour after my job interview this morning, I got a call from my recruiter saying the company wanted to hire me I of course accepted! I start Wednesday And being that it's a full-time job, I'll only be able to check VJ after work from then on

That's awesome! Congrats!

Haha, love it!

Yes they are working on it. We got this message last Saturday. Just keep checking on it. And today, Monday, AOS bill is now available to pay.

No..the conditions to use I-864EZ should be met, there are three conditions mentioned to be qualified not just because we do EP.
This is what USCIS says regarding I-864EZ:
Who may use form I-864EZ?
You may use Form I-864EZ IF ALL the following conditions apply: 1.You are the person who filed or is filing the Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, for a relative being sponsored; 2.The relative you are sponsoring is the only person listed on the Form I-130 petition; 3.The income you are using to qualify is based entirely on your salary or pension and is shown on one or more Forms W-2 provided by your employer(s) or former employer(s).
Since you have a joint sponsor you are not qualified, you did the right thing.
This is what USCIS says:
Who may not use Form I-864EZ?
You must complete Form I-864 (and not Form I-864EZ) if any of the following conditions apply:
1. The relative you are sponsoring is not the only person immigrating base upon the underlying visa petition;
2. You filed or are filing a Form I-140, Immigrant petition for Alien Worker, for the immigrant you are sponsoring;
3. You are a joint sponsor;

4, You are a substitute sponsor filing because the original I-130 petitioner is deceased.

Same thing happened to my husband. Tax preparers aren't necessarily the best trained people in the world. They aren't normally accountants (who can get it wrong too.) They know the software they're looking at and that's it. Several suggested to my husband that he file as single but when he called the IRS they told him he was not allowed to file as single. He though it sounded odd as well which is why he called the IRS.
I also did not file as single in Canada because they already knew I was married. I received more of a refund because my husband was out of country actually and hadn't earned that much that year as well. You have to tell the CRA you're married within 30 days of getting married or becoming common-law, and within 90 days of separation.
I know it;s a huge thing with all the "how do I file" tax threads but I will never understand why people feel it's okay to say "yeah i'm single" on a form to the government. And they wonder how people get things they're not supposed to from the government as well? I met someone once who hadn't filed taxes in 30 years, but boy was that audit going to hurt since they had caught up with him and he said so to me.
I even filed taxes when I was in college because I made a little bit of money each year working for the school or my mom. I still have unused tuition amounts that help me get a refund 13 years after I've graduated and I only went to school for 2 years! Why wouldn't you want that?!

Also just checking in...
Even though my wife's visa is approved, I still want to avail myself for others going through NVC & interview.

My comment was not ignorant at all. I simply asked the person what they honestly thought it meant. That others thought my comment was funny had no basis on my asking if the person could understand what was written. Not to mention everyone on here has a USC spouse as well. So the USC should be able to explain this sentence to their beneficiary. If neither person cannot understand that simple sentence, perhaps they need lawyer to help them with their paperwork.
My journey is done thank you until I have to ROC. So I stick around to help others and part of that help is encouraging them to think for themselves and help themselves whenever possible. In that I also need to determine how much help that person really will need or if they're just excited and randomly posting questions.
But thank you for making an awesome assumption on my genuine question based on the fact that someone laughed. Have a great day!

Congrats!
o_0 You're not supposed to submit original documents. My understanding is that you will need those during the next step of the process.

YES. me too. Sooooo hard to stay positive.
Ah well...another day...
