Good luck Erika!!!! Today is the day you've been waiting for, yayyyyy

Hi Erika, our interview dates are literally one day apart Can you believe it? Almost there! Last hurdle, yeahhh! We're now debating whether we should book the plane ticket in advance, but everybody in the forum advises not to. The problem is also that we don't know how long it takes for them to issue the visa, hopefully it's not more than a week. Anyway how's the inte...

Hi! My papers haven't left the NVC,yet. My case was completed on the 1st of March, so I have been waiting 26 days now for them to schedule the interview date. As soon as that's set they'll mail the papers to the embassy in Athens. Unfortunately, I don't have any information as to whether the embassy is backed up, but hopefully it won't be long now. Good luck!

It was an email for us but I called and heard it from the operator to make sure that it's true, too Sooooo Congratulations!!!!!! Hopefully your interview will also be scheduled in April! Can you believe that it's been close to a year since we submitted our papers? Oh well what's done is done, and we can look forward to good times with our loved ones fr...

Yeah you guessed right! Case completed on the 1st of March, so now we're waiting for the NVC to schedule the interview appointment. But even that seems to be taking forever!!! Hopefully, we'll hear from then soon and if we're even luckier we might even get an interview in April How are things coming along for you? Hope you are well!!!

Hi Jane! Congratulations on your approval! I wanted to ask you how long it took to schedule your interview at the embassy once your case had been completed at the NVC. Our case was completed on March 1st and we're hoping that it won't take longer than 2 months to get the appointment, but every time I call they don't give me any estimates. Thanks for your help and I wish you ...

Hi Erika! How are your things coming along? We've sent both packages now, the AOS got accepted and now we're waiting for the IV to be accepted, too and get the coveted case complete status Hopefully, it will be done by the end of the week! How are you doing??? Hope things are progressing fast for you, too!!!

So we're hoping that by the 4th of March we'll have the case complete status We'll see...Anyway, I just can't believe that there are still early June filers that haven't received their NOA2 yet! It's so sad How can they be soooo backed up? I thought they re-directed most of their cases to field offices. I know we're one of the lucky ones, but I feel for the...

Yeah we're CR1, too. We got married last year February. When we filed our papers last June we were positive that we would be together by now to celebrate our anniversary together. Little did we know that we'd get stuck at Vermont! hahahahaha oh well, things are going better now, though still no AOS approval. We did submit the DS-260 online and I'm sending the IV package papers t...

Hi Erika! We just got two emails back to back, our DS-261 was approved and the IV bill invoice had been generated So first thing tomorrow i'll mail the IV package! Yayyyyyyy How are you guys doing? By the way I just noticed that the last thing I wrote to you I accidentally posted it on my wall! LOL I hope you saw it, cause it was meant for you

Yayyy! Awesome! We got our AOS PAID today also! I love how are things are going side by side You can submit your papers electronically? That's really good! It helps get through the process much faster AND cheaper I mailed all the papers yesterday, so I'm hoping in the next 5-10 business days they'll invoice the IV fee. I can almost see the moment I go and pick ...

Hi Erika! We got invoiced too yesterday So AOS was paid last night, I mailed the AOS package today, we filled in the DS-261 choice of agent today online and things are progressing super fast! Hopefully, we'll get the IV invoice by Monday so I can mail the rest of the papers Hihihihi I feel the VSC stage is well behind us!

Same here!!! Twelve months and counting since the last time we saw each other in person I'm hoping it won't be more than three more months till the day I go and pick him up from the airport! Woohoo

That's great! We don't have electronic processing in Greece, so we have to do things the "traditional" way But you are right, I feel much more calm now that we're out of the VSC stage I can see that the end of this long and painful journey is not far at all!

Awesome news! We also got both numbers, but our invoice fee hasn't been generated yet. I already tried to pay the fees through the online system. So we have to wait for that before we are able to send the papers. We did send the DS-3023 email, but haven't received a response on that either. What about you? Did you try to pay already?

Don't worry, yours will be assigned within the next week as well. We have a 7 day difference, so probably Wed or Thur you guys will have it, too The thing is that I've gathered all the documents, but they didn't give me an IIN to pay the fees and get things moving And they only asked for my email address, not my husbands...I guess I'll have to call them again until I get t...

Hi Erika, just got the NVC case number It was literally assigned yesterday, I guess they mean it when they say 15 business days! Lol Unfortunately they didn't give me an invoice identification number so i can't pay any fees yet and I'm not really sure what I can do in the mean time...Do you have any idea what we're supposed to do next?

Hi Erika, I called the NVC today and they told me that they received my case on the 14th of January and that they haven't put it in their system yet. They said it takes 10-15 business days on average. So I'll call again on Monday, which marks 11 business days Still I feel things are moving forward Last time I called they told me that they hadn't received my case yet. Any news ...

yeah we've got it all prepared, ready to be sent. I haven't received the tax returns from IRS yet, so if I don't have them by the time i get the case number I'll send the W2s and employer letter and the last 6 paystubs. It should be alright

Yeah hopefully! Though I'm reading at the NVC forum that there are December approvals that are still waiting for the coveted number! But you're right...I'm less stressed now that we have the NOA2 Do you have all the necessary paperwork ready?

Hey Erika! We're still waiting for our new case number We're getting impatient, too. Especially since we had to wait all this time for the NOA2 decision! Last time I called was last Friday, and they answered the same to us. I'll call again tomorrow hahahaha

Omg I know the feeling so well! When I opened the email from USCIS my heart literally skipped a beat! I wish your life is full of tears of joy and happiness

Yeahhhhhh Yeahhhh I knew it!!!! Congratulations!!! I'm really really happy for you And let me be the first one to welcome you to the NVC forum!!!!!

Hey Erica, any news? I'm waiting for the NVC case number assigned. Apparently NVC is also pretty backed-up! Is it just me or is everyone getting sick and tired of hearing this verb? Hang in there! I'm sure you'll get your approval by the end of this week

Congratulations!!!!! VSC is picking up!

Really happy for you
