We had 3 early Sep case completes today which is not too bad samreen 23..... At least something to smile...

Yes finally! I might actually hear something this week inshAllah!! Praying.....

Hi everyone,

The tears have finally stopped falling, I have spoken and screamed at my husband in frustration and have now settled down. Am drinking a Coke Zero and will regale my horrific morning.

Dropped children to school, rushed back to call NVC and hopefully hear some good news.

Spoke to an operator and finally they put me through to a Supervisor - Ike. He was OK but there is nothing he can do.

My Singapore Police Certificate was scanned in on 29th August. I emailed NVC back in early August to see if I might take the Certificate to the Interview. I didn't hear back from them and so Andy and I decided we would Fed Ex it to NVC and get the clock ticking. They emailed me back on September 17th to say that my email had insufficient information. I had left off Andy's birth date. They then wrote to me on 24th September saying they received my documents of the 17th September which was, in fact, their email to me.

Turns out my last scan date is NOT August 29th but now September 17th. They opened up my file a few days ago but didn't look at the Police Certificate because they saw that there is another piece of mail waiting to be reviewed from September 17th even though it was their own email. Really!!!!!

I cried on the phone - it did not good. He went really quiet for a long period and I had to ask him if he was still there. There is NOTHING they will/can do. I just have to wait until they get to September 17th scan date.

Any idea anymore where they are up to. In reality it is only a couple of weeks away but looks like we will miss the December interview and home for Christmas.

I am dreading telling the children this afternoon that they won't be back with Dad for Christmas. I am SO sad for them.

I will be around a while longer. Looks like we are 'scan buddies' samreen although I think (and will be happy) you will get yours before me although I should only be a few days behind you.

If I get a January interview I will email the Sydney Consulate and see if they can bring it forward. That is the best I can hope for at this point.

Am numb - don't know what to say.

Love to you all.

Omg msc I m soooo sorry to hear this!!! It's sooo heartbreaking. Omg I can't believe they keep doing this to ppl and playing with their lives. I can totally imagine how it feels to keep watching the dates go by and finally wait for ur turn and then pushed back again. I think we may and June 2013 filers are really cursed I m praying for ur cc this month! Our scan dates are not that far away just a week's difference. I m praying u still get a dec interview if hopefully ur embassy works in the second part of dec. We have to stay strong!

I'm not sure how the visa we are applying for factors in with you all in this Topic.

Our application was a i130 and is for what i think is a CR2 visa for my aged under 21 Son.

We are currently in the 60 day wait after submitting AOS and IV.

I have no idea where the discussions are on these forums for CR2, but we are being dealt with by the NVC.

Filed October/November 2013

Our last scan date was Sept 3rd for AOS and IV packages (sent both together)

Got home from work this Evening and the AOS paid has changed to N/A

Don't know if this means CC or a checklist.

Oh thank God finally they touched sept! Did u confirm ur cc?

Yours was one of the first names I looked for NVC is unbelievable. No one from 2013 should be waiting anymore, let alone from so early in the year. This system is a disgrace

Yes it's disgusting. The bright part is I have been thru the worst so hopefully in max two weeks they HAVE to give me an answer and not their 60 day BS. Just really really praying for dec interview at this point.

I called and spoke to Olivia and got an official CC, also with a scan date of either August 29 or Sept 2 (have heard both) and also with a case complete on Saturday Oct 25. I do not think they work Saturdays, but I do think the system updates whenever it updates and that's the date that it's "complete."

So I still don't understand the scheduling interview part. Doesn't it depend on the embassy? So does NVC only call them to schedule at those times? I read the first page of the interview thread, I just think it's crazy. I guess I'm not surprised though, since this is the NVC.

msc13, Samreen and dear sweet Soloenta, all of my thoughts and positive energy are going towards you guys to be done with this BS as soon as possible.

Thankyou Molly! Yes I m hoping to see msc cc today and mine miraculously by the end of week

Hey gang! Work has been nasty for me the past couple of weeks but it finally let up long enough for me to check in here. Looks like NVC is still an absolute pit, I was hoping to see more veterans around here with CCs and interview dates I'm keeping you all in my thoughts.

Yup. Still here :cry:

Nothing we can do but pray to Allah and hope for the best. I was expecting a Dec interview as well looks like with the change of processing its looking more like January. Going to be missing our anniversary and wife's bday. Extremely frustrating,... i hate the feeling of not being able to do anything whatsoever. Cant even contact my congressman/woman because they are just going to say well that's within normal processing time.

Yup. I was also hoping for a dec interview and am still hoping for it what's ur scan date? Mine is sept 10th. I hope I don't have to deal with Nvc in the end of the month when they are actually on holidays.

NVC is getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year. Don't expect much work. People tend to be lazy around the holidays, I myself are guilty of it.

Then they should realize that their 'laziness' is what's stopping families to be united together on the same holidays. Their jobs don't involve machines, it involves human beings. They don't have the right to be lazy. Specially after what they have put us through

Hello Guys,

Whats the current scan date for case complete @ NVC ?

Regards

Leo

I guess aug 29 is the last one that got cc. Sept 2 onwards hopefully from today inshAllah

Hahahaha your so sweet hehehee, I can just see you walking up to them hahahaa I bet (for some reason) your tiny , love you never change!!!

Praying this week belongs to you Samreen and MSC.

Then I am truly blessed by God.

Hahahaha nooo soloenta I m in no way tiny. I m 5'5' and normal build but I don't look tiny from any angle I can see my husband rolling his eyes and shaking his head if he reads this

There is a good chance that NVC will start scheduling Dec interviews from the 28th, 29th, 30th, or 31st (if not, early next month).

If you get a CC tomorrow or Tuesday, you'll be just in time for Dec interview scheduling. Fingers crossed!

If they start early next month I might be able to squeeze in as well! Praying......

Do you think. Please please let me get it this week. I will call tomorrow.

InshAllah

Msc u should call them today. U r the only aug filer left I think :|

First we were screwed by USCIS for 10 long months and now by NVC for 8 long months... This nightmare over the last 18 months has just withered down most of us completely.

At this moment I can only hope for some miracle to save us, and I just wish and sincerely pray that no other new IR1/CR1 visa filer should ever have to experience what we've been through.

NVC please have some mercy!!!

Yes! I can't believe we r still stuck at this stage. First two years of marriage people are the happiest and it was the opposite for us I m praying this week brings some good news! Please Nvc!

P.S. We should take this convo to the ranting thread!

Like you, just waiting for my AOS checklist to get reviewed. Scan date Sep 29.

With these random Sep and Oct case completes, I think it's going to take for ever to reach Sep end.

Yes. We are so unfortunate in this process it's unbelievable mine is sept 10 or 11th though ( both dates given by representatives) so the max they can drag me is 2 weeks more. Then I can officially yell at them but I was praying for dec interview which seems not very likely due to Nvc suddenly getting slow. God it keeps happening to us.

Me toooooooooooooooooooooooo.......................................................

What's ur scan date Anuspras?

I think your plan makes sense. It will be nice to compare as many timelines as possible so just one would be great. I guess on the November thread start letting people know the plan to phase out (I know you've said that, but make it very clear) then hopefully more people will join! I never really look at the other one anymore.

By the way, my AOS changed to n/a yesterday. Last scan date is debatable. I was told they scanned my IV package on Sept 2, but they received it on Aug 29, and I've been told both dates as my "scan date" by different reps. I'll put in for an update after I get an official confirmation by calling in the AM. If it's true then I made it through with no checklists and literally could not have done it without you Saylin, and the rest of the VJ family. I really don't know how people do it without this community. The NVC should contract with you to create new instructions and save themselves a lot of time and energy! Can you imagine if the instructions for these forms ACTUALLY worked to fill them out correctly? It would be a miracle!

Thanks again for all the help and support.

I hope it's sept 2 I want to believe they have finally reached sept

Yes thank God for Skype don't know what I would do without it. It does make things easier, I think I would have died without it. Love the free part hahahaa.

Aww thank you my friend, said my prayers at Mass you and Samreen were first on my list praying you both get your CC's this coming week. Both of you are so close I just can't wait.

Your in my thoughts all the time and your children and your the inspiration not me but I thank you so much for the compliment. Thank you so much and I am here for you and whom ever needs me. Love you girl!

Yes you are but the difference is you, Austin and the others are not just anybody or just someone on the Interview thread you are part of my family so never put yourself with the others.

True they can't but the Embassy can, so now you know how paranoid I am hahaha God it never ends. Thank you so very much for your prayers, what a gift thank you so much I don't have words to show you how much I appreciate this. I said one for you at Mass also. Much love and hugs.

STOP being so nice!!! :bonk: u r too angelic and it hurts even more to see what those SOBs are doing to u! I want ur cc next month

Please forgive me my friend but when was that? My mind is mush I can't remember when you got the checklist. Wasn't it a month or so ago? Sweet heart your very close!

Yup almost 2 months ago. Scanned on 10 sept. The bright side is 2 weeks is the max they can drag us. After that I can call them and demand answers! God I hope it's over soon!

I have to ask, when was the last time your husband or you called NVC and what did they say. It seems all your waiting for is for the Demons to review your AOS or am I missing something? SOB's, I really hate them, I hope they burn in h e l l!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes! Just becasue of one tiny damn box they made us wait 60 days. I feel soo depressed Whenver I think that another new year's is gonna go without him. We called them thrice this week and always the same reply. I m so so tired. Why r they torturing us so much I don't understand. U r at an even worst position and I feel ur pain from deep inside my heart. We can just pray. But I feel like even God has stopped listening to my prayers now

Checklist!? Sorry to hear that. NVC shows no mercy to us!

I also hit every speed bump that I could think of at the NVC stage.

I had to wait for 42 days for the IV fee invoice for no reason.

Guess what? Now they're invoicing it with the AOS fee!

What was the reason why they had to make us wait to pay the IV fee invoice again?

I m totally depressed :cry:

I'll be saying a prayer for you at Mass this Sunday along with the others on my list. God willing you will get your CC by Monday along with Samereen, MSC and the rest of the gang.

I have lost all hope Sylvia. I don't think anything good can happen to us. We just keep getting at the back of line again and again.

It seems like it's taking exactly 60 calender days according to Facebook.

NVC is now reviewing two packages together so it's taking more time for people who sent a checklist document alone, unfortunately.

It keeps happening to me again and again and again. Delay at every damn process it's so frustrating now.

They r still stuck on august I can't believe it

Going to sleep now. Praying that I wake up to magical n/a

I feel the same way Samreen, I want to be happy for them but just can't. I know it's horrible of me, I'm happy for those that are lucky like this but at the same time are respectful of hose like us who have been left to suffer this endless h e l l. All I and we can do is continue to pray. (L)

Awwwwwwwwwwww how sweet and amazing at the same time, how smart she is and what empathy. I think instead of a bad thing it can be taken in a positive way. She has learned lessons and learned to appreciate her parents while adults still have to learn the hard way. (L) This one is for your little one.

Yes soloenta. I have no patience left in me. Neither can I be happy for anyone now. I want my cc becasue I know I deserve it more than a lot here and so do u. My marriage is going down the drain really. And all because of this f**** up process. We have gone through this millions of times before that we r stuck waiting and people come and go by. I can't take it anymore.
