this is interesting to me, you or who has a typographical error in the firm?in my case the signature was typed whit the computer, I do not sign with Pen.I need to know if someone done this and have rejected or not?
if u call after 8 pm central time. u do not have to wait for long time...
Hi,
in ur signature, u wrote TYPO. what it mean? just wondering?????
In the letter template we didn't change beneficiary's day of birth, we left it as it was - 1st. Everything else was fine. We sent it via email.
-
They are always busy whenever I call
what is the right time to call nvc??? Pakistani time!!
Every time I call, I have to wait around 15-20 minutes. Thanks to Skype it's possible.
-
I think I did - but lets say I didn't - where in the instructions did they say that you have to have a signature ???
Thats why I am frustrated
Well, the only reference I've found, is http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-864instr.pdf page 2 part How to file the form, item 2. They don't specify explanation letter explicitly, which makes it hard to guess, really.
I guess, it's better to sign every letter you address them.
-
Call them - get the exact wording from them - I got a stupid checklist just cause my wording wasn't right - lucky for me I had also went ahead and submitted an empty tax return b/c i had no income last year - so I'm just going to send the IRS return transcript to them - when I had sent my AOS the IRS didn't even have my return at that time b/c I submitted it later.
So call them tell them your friend had this checklist sent and you don't want to be in the same 4 week delayed situation 4 wks later so tell me exactly what to write on it. After that is up to you and your luck I guess
Hi shabbera, I am sorry to hear that ((((
I also wrote them explanation letter. They gave me checklist, but for other thing. I understand your frustration.
Did you put your handwritten signature on the explanation letter?
-
Just keep in mind that you don't have to file income tax return if your income is <$3,000 for filing married separately. Or if your single, you don't have to file if your income is <$9000. Just write a letter of explanation that per IRS, that "if you earned below the minimum income for your filing status, you may not be required to file a Federal Tax Return"
It also depends if a person is self-employed. Self-employed must file if earned over $400. Yep! Page 5 Self-Employed Persons: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p17.pdf

Oh okay. Thank you!
Actually, you should hear something earlier on your AOS package, probably next week. I just looked at your timeline
I thought you sent AOS and IV together.
-
I don't understand I called NVC awhile ago and the csr told me that my case is not yet reviewed and call back on sept. 6.
It's normal, don't worry. We should hear something from them sometime from 26th to 30th Aug. It might take a bit longer, but I hope not.
-
It depends on how NVC operates. If they already know what the cut off date will be, then they have sufficient knowledge to determine which petitions will have their PD still current after the cut off date is established and can therefore schedule an interview for them and not schedule an interview for those petitions with a PD after the cut off date.
If they dont know what the cut off date will be, then they should continue with business as usual and continue processing all petitions and forms they receive and continue completing cases and scheduling interviews regardless of whether a visa number will be avialable by the time the interview takes place.
By the way...what does AP stand for? What does IL stand for?
AP=Administrative Process, IL=Interview letter.
-
I think what it means is that if your petition is at NVC, then they will continue to process it and possibly complete your case, but if by the time they schedule your interview, your PD is no longer current, then you wont be scheduled an interview until your PD becomes current again. Or maybe you complete your case and an interview is scheduled for some date in Oct...if there is retrogression in Oct, and your PD is no longer current, even if you go to the interview and get approved, you still wouldn't get the visa because you would have to wait until a visa number is available for you, which means waiting for your PD to become current again. Hopefully that wont be the case, and we can all get our cases completed, get our interviews scheduled and finally our visas...but it seems to me that is wishful thinking. We will all have to wait a month, when the bulletin prediction for Oct is released.
I don't see why would they schedule an interview if visa is not available. I think the issue with visa is not available after interview might happen only if person goes through AP or reschedules interview him/herself.
-
They could have just frozen the PD at OCT 8, 2011 instead of putting CURRENT. Now, tourist visa holders using it to adjust status is just annoying, jumping ahead of those who are helplessly waiting.
Retrogression won't be that bad anyway and besides it will put everyone in their right places as processing will be according to priority dates again (as it should be).
Sorry, I didn't get your point. If they froze on OCT 8, 2011 then many case complete people wouldn't be able to get their interviews scheduled.
Wouldn't you take advantage of adjustment of status? I'm happy for those who can reunite soon and, of course, a bit jealous
I would predict the cut-off date to be end of 2012/beginning of 2013. If they say that it likely won't harm filers who already started the action, let's believe them and keep our finger crossed!
-
Wonder why they have such delay. Maybe today we will finally see September bulletin?
-
Ooops, sorry, I was confused by picture )) I was saying your sister, but she is your wife's sister. My apologies!
-
1. Guys are absolutely right. Your sister falls under F4 category if you petition her, waiting time is 12 years now. If your father petitions her, she falls under F2B category and waiting time is 8 years. Your dad can obtain citizenship and then she will fall under F1 category, you could save 1 year. However, as already said, she should remain single all these years if father is the petitioner. Also, a lot might change and these numbers are valid only now. You can always check here: http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/bulletin/bulletin_1360.html
2. I don't think she can, Travel visa doesn't allow immigrant intend.
3. Same here. My husband was denied Visitors visa, because of pending immigrant petition. But since she already has one... Well, I can't tell for sure, but this might raise a red flag and question if she obtained her visa without fraud.
Good luck!

Is your sister over 21? Is she married?
-
They told me they received my AOS package on aug.1 and the IV package on Aug. 7 and entered it on Their system on Aug. 8. but When I asked them when should I start counting the 20 business days they said I should start counting by Aug. 1 then call again on Aug. 29 if my case is complete or just wait for their email.
Thanks!
-
They still haven't reviewed either of our packages
You should hear some good news this coming week!
It took exactly 3 weeks for them to review my package from the day it was delivered. And looking on timelines - it's the same for many folks.
-
Try to call them. They received my IV docs last Aug.7 and when I called them last night they said they just entered my case into their system and wait for 20 business days for their review
Did they just say they received the package or they specified it's under review? I'm sorry to double-ask, but I am confused: both my packages were delivered to NVC on Aug 5th, but they said they received one on Aug 6th and other on Aug 8th. They are in the system, but not under review yet.

this is what i just did .
but in answer for ayour question is my so sponsor only send his front side of his green card .
any way i will send it again (both side)
my another question is, these are ( i mean [X] parts ) only missing or incompleted documents.
i mean if i send these item to NVC my process is going to be case complete ?
i used new form of i 864
this is what they say :
[x] The Affidavit of Support is an important legal contract between you and the U.S. government. During our review,
we identified one or more sections that were either incomplete or contained incorrect information. Please review the
additional instructions below then complete and submit a new Affidavit of Support. You can download the I-864
form and instructions at http://www.uscis.gov/i-864.
In Part 3, Information on the Immigrant(s) You are sponsoring, please correct the following...
[x] Item 7. The total number of immigrants listed in Item 7 must equal the number of immigrants listed in Part 3, Items
1 through 6.f. In addition, you must also verify that the total number of immigrants listed in Item 7 matches the
number you entered in Part 5 Item1
[x] Proof of U.S. citizenship, nationality, or Lawful Permanent Resident status (examples: a copy of your birth
certificate, certificate of naturalization, certificate of citizenship, consular report of birth abroad to citizen
parents, or a copy of the biographic data page of your U.S. passport).
If your IV package had been reviewed and everything is ok there, so yes, you should be case complete after they review your response to this checklist and everything is right in it as well. However, you'll have to wait additional 3 weeks while they review your response.
Good luck!
-
finally.. after all this long, all I want to hear is CASE COMPLETED!
Mourad81 how long do u get IL after your case completed?
Congratulations!!!
Happy for you!!!!

guys please help i got checklist for my AOS unfortunately
it says these items,
let me know what i have to do . my sponsor already submited proof of lawful permanent card but they said me he's not present proof of that
please help please soon .
Did you send copy of both back and front of joint sponsor's green card?
Maybe you could call them and make sure they didn't overlook proof that you've sent?
It would also be helpful if you could post exactly what they asked as on checklist (part that starts with [X]) and what forms did you use.

My response to AOS checklist was delivered on Aug 5th, nothing yet. I'm expecting the waiting time to be 3 weeks.
