Thank you for understanding us not many can or are willing.

In part 6, items 13.a 13.b and 13.c write the exact amount that appears on your transcript or 1040 form, which I assume is 0$ because you put it as foreign income.
But in current individual annual income (part 6, items 5 and 10) write the amount you are currently earning, which has to be above 125% of the poverty level for your household. Use the bank accounts as evidence for this current income, and preferably include a document that verifies that you own the company/business (Like a business license or certificate of status)
The numbers that have to match exactly are those in items 13.a 13.b and 13.c, which have to match total income if you filed a 1040 (or 1040A) or adjusted gross income if you filed a 1040EZ
Hope that helps!

I feel for so many of you separated from your spouses. I am not, so my antsiness is more about wanting to leave his country NOW, but for hose of you separated from your spouse, I am sorry for the extra hardship you endure. To go through that and finish with your sanity in tact is no small thing!

God willing ColGil, God willing.

It's paralegal's mistake, but the lawyer should have double-checked paralegal's email.
So it's the lawyer's fault because the lawyer hired the incompetent paralegal.

Our situation was more simple... spouse earns more than 125% poverty threshold so we filed the EZ form. From reading other people's experience though I'd say 100% a cover letter. The worst it will do is delay a few hours while they read it.

Sorry for the Sound of Music reference, but saw this and thought of the NVC!

There are loads of them: http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys-star-wars.php
But I do prefer the doctor who ones, #HugeFan: http://gopher65.com/images/drwho/drwhosmilies.html
But since you were referred to as Yoda the other day, this one is just for you...

Congratulations and I'm thrilled for you and ty for the hang in there.

Holy cow your my new HERO! Good for you finally more people not letting others uses them as door mats!

The voice when you're on hold with the NVC.. that goes:

"All our representatives are still busy assisting other callers...Please remain on the line as the next representative will be with you shortly, your patience is greatly appreciated"
Do you think it's a man or a woman? I think it's a woman, but my wife says it's a man.

I see the use of non-VJ emoticons has significantly gone up today

Haha! No news is good news, maybe? Well, at least we read fewer postings of people receiving a checklist.
Actually, it's probably because it takes more time for NVC to issue a checklist now. In that case, it's not good news.

Dear GOD, we are complete after so many months, done, whew, hubby just called and he got grumpy Arthur, that guy was really an as****e on my hubby i was listening to them and my hubby put him down with:
"YES, CASE COMPLETED? OK! That's what I needed to hear"
Guys, thanks for all advices and just - try to hang in there even if very tough.
Yes our case changed today from PAID into N/A.

i'm 20th too.
was told this morning to call again around July 2nd, 3rd i know that they are working on 20th now, 2 people got their cases complete.

Hi IlonaLannon, for my docs it took them approx 1 week from delivery date to the date they show as received on the system. It's currently taking 3-4 weeks from the date they show as received on their system to be reviewed, so about 4-5 weeks in total from the date of delivery.
They don't issue any emails or letters to confirm this. The only way to find out if it's been allocated to your case yet is to call them directly.
You might find it useful to join the NVC thread, it's all people in the same situation, but at different stages so you will find a wealth of useful information in there. The wiki which dwheels referred to is linked in the very first post. The thread closed each month and a new one open so it's currently called NVC filers june 2014. It will be a bit overwhelming at first because there are almost 300 pages just now, it's for this reason it the thread changes each month, but you wouldn't have to read every post, definitely the first post by Saylin, then just pick up on the last 2 or 3 pages for now. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/498764-nvc-filers-june-2014/

Thank you Soloenta for your kind words.
I must admit, I do skirt over the questions I don't know the answers to, but I remember what I was like at the start of this process and many of those who were at the stage we are at now were answering my questions but have now moved into the interview forums. This forum has hit a quiet patch and would hate for someone to be stuck, delayed or checklisted. We are all in this together!

I couldn't agree more! Slow down, read and re-read the instructions. I think people are making this harder than it needs to be.
The ONLY thing that contradicts the instructions is the whole 'blank vs N/A' thing, but that's been explained to death on here. Take an extra day to to review the AOS before sending it out. Lots of people are getting preventable check lists (unless you have a lawyer, in which case raise some holy hell!). Breeeeeathe :-D
