He also passed the road test, and got his drive's license today.

yay ! more movement ! my wife got her license about 8 weeks ago, many chinese trainers here.

Thank you so much for helping us.

yay ! I'm so happy for you guys !! Excelsior !!!! If you have some time, please write up where you stayed, accomodations, something about the medical exam, something about the interview, in a new topic in the CHINA sub-forum !

I just call DOS, she said he needs to do DS-260 form online.

ok - so is paradigm shift? or anomoly? regardless, now you know, and you must do. good luck !

thank you.

this will show up via postal mail. you can call DoS Hotline, they will tell you about the interview date. However, you can email GUZ IV via their webform email page, and ask that the interview letter be emailed.

Ours is paper case. Dos won't know the interview date. They said.

Yoyo, have you registered on ustraveldocs website yet? If you haven't you should do that now. I think the Consulate got my email through ustraveldocs.

that's good ! call DoS Hotline for status. IMO, casefile has been received and maybe even opened.

I will. Thank you.

how long was taken your mom's case to arrived to Guangzhou.

I was told left NVC on May 29 2013. A few months later I found out from DHL that it was shipped on 5/30/2013. It took about 3 months to arrive in Guangzhou, 7/29/2013. Case status changed on 8/24/2013 to Administrative Processing. 9/9/2013 received interview instruction sheet. I am not sure about this, but I am hoping yours will be a little faster since you are CR1 visa category.

Thank you very much.

there is no phone # to contact. can only email via the GUZ IV webform. However, keep calling DoS Hotline, once a week, till you hear 'casefile opened' as status. After that - expect a P4 sent out via postal mail about 2 weeks later.

It will take how long to get "casefile opened" from now? papercase

Is hard to determine. I say, keep calling DoS Hotline, asking for status.

Call DoS once a week till you hear of 'casefile opened' for status. Yes, he will receive a P4, maybe. Maybe not. make an account at ustraveldocs and try to self-schedule after hearing 'casefile opened' status at DoS Hotline. # at bottom of my profile page.

as to 'when get a P4' - maybe by the end of the year. maybe.

Thank you very much. If I understand right, it means "casefile opened" by calling DoS hotline to find out, right? After "Case complete" at NVC.

Thank You again.

Yikes - that bites. sorry you guys missed that form, it's required for all casefiles (paper or EP) heading to GUZ IV.

yay ! I am about a week behind you for getting stuff done. I filed the current I-864 - lots of folk are having problems if they file the NEW I-864 version, NVC is suspending processing on those casefiles with the NEW I-864.

Good luck.

I am waiting my husband's IV Documents.

BTW, good luck for your case.

not doing EP ? aiyo. Paper cases take longer. OK... Even after visa approval, he'll have 6 months to come into the USA, so keep that in mind if you change your mind about EP.

Ok. Thank you so much!

cool. send off the OPT IN email la. and good luck !

Yes, send the email now.

NO. You should study about EP, instead. Prepare an OPT IN EMAIL, now. do not SEND OPT IN email until petitioner receives AOS FEE BILL in email inbox.
