Is it better to wait until after case complete and before interview date to request case to be expedited? Anyone have experience with expedite?

@jayisis -

The notice of intent to deny basically said it is requesting for us to send in a bunch of additional documents (original marriage cert, Evidence of Citizenship etc.) giving me 30 days to send them the documents, otherwise they will deny the I129f which my lawyer says shouldnt matter anymore since my I130 is already approved but I am still not exactly sure if that is right. the AOS/IV package is the one they havent received yet, atleast i havent gotten an email for it yet and have not tried calling NVC today. And Yes really hoping it doesnt effect anything else going forward...

I got an RFE for i129f after my i130 was approved and sent to NVC, and I made sure I responded to the i129f RFE and then it was also approved. You have an option to write a signed letter to the service center asking to close or cancel the i129f case if you do not wish to proceed with it. That case would not be related to what is going on with your immigrant case at NVC.

When did the postal service deliver your AOS/IV package ?

I completed the DS-261 & paid the AOS fee on August 31, 2015.

The AOS fee is still showing "In Process" after 5 business days and the payment went thru my bank several days ago.

The IV fee has not been opened so I can pay.

I know it is nearly impossible to get through to NVC but should I be calling? If not, how long should I wait?

Thank you,

The IV fee will not be available until your AOS fee shows PAID & 261 is reviewed by agent over phone. You could call later tonight when nvc is not busy and ask what they can do about your AOS fee and review.

Has anyone bound for Mumbai consulate considered sending a request to expedite? Anyone successful at getting interview date recently by expediting?

Thanks in advance

Hey guys, so on friday i received a notice of intent to deny for the i129f that my lawyer had submitted with my i130, i am hoping to speak with him sometime this week about it, Im pretty sure not responding to the NOID will cause a problem in the long run even though the i130 is already approved and at NVC from what i've heard on these forums atleast... anyways it really put a damper on my long weekend :/ ...And still no response from NVC that they've received our packet - think these 2 are related?

What is the notice of intent to deny? I also did the I129f with the i130, but I don't anticipate any issues with i129f interfering with immigrant case.

Which package haven't they received?

Hello everyone, my husband called NVC today

twice.

The first rep requested we wait till 17th of

September that the checklist email doesn't

matter.

The second rep checked the system and said

they didn't receive any other documents

apart from the Police Report that was sent

and request we resend the documents.

What do we do now?

Hubby is already complaining of having to fill the AOS form all over.

So you got a checklist for police clearance certificate? And you sent that with the document cover sheet? If so, when did the checklist package arrive to nvc? You may have to wait a couple days for them to scan it and then call to verify that they received it.

My question about the IV package is the passport photos of my husband. I sent one with the USCIS. But Seeing that they request two, I have asked hubby to send me two more, which means he has to mail them to me. So how important are the passport photos if he is also going to bring them to Interview? My passport photos are not required right? I have not been able to get thru to NVC today, their phone lines are busy!

NVC does not require beneficiary's passport photos. The embassy will require it during the interview. If you are already at nvc stage, I would advise to just wait until the interview to submit the (2) passport photos.

No it shows as in process since friday.

You might want to alert them and let them know your documents are already scanned and you need to submit 260 so that you don't get a checklist.

Morning Everyone,

Still waiting on the DS 260 to become available to fill out- this waiting is very irritating.

Does IV bill shows paid? Either way, let nvc know that you wish to fill out 260 today.

Hi,please did u submit original birth certificate and marriage certificate to NVC or just photocopies?

Only copies of birth certificate & marriage certificate should be sent to NVC.

Was wondering how long the NVC Process is.

From case# to when your fees appear to viewing documents?

Are they faster now than 60 days they use to do?

Just curious while I wait.

From time that case # is assigned to case complete, it can be done from 30-40 days if you execute all the steps correctly and stay persistent throughout. Good luck!

SC Date: August 18, 2015

In that case, Congratulations! lol 20 days is most likely a case complete!

Hi everybody!

So I loged in to CEAC... as always to check... and OMG!!! 3 N/A. Wanted to call NVC to confirme but they are closed today

Can you get a checklist after seeing 3 N/A?? Has anybody heard of such a thing happening?

Thank you!

When was your scan date?

So I received one email from NVC on Sep 5 and another today on Sep 7 stating the same thing that they have received my documents on Sep 3...is it my scan date?

Also, why did I get two emails stating the same thing?

That is interesting that you got an email today.... hmmm wonder if anyone is working overtime..I guess the system can still generate emails today

Sept 3rd is your scan date. Multiple emails for one thing is not necessarily a bad thing.

the post was removed, thanks for letting me know my friend!

I just thought that eveidence that i sent to USCIS before, NVC will not send it to the Embassy and thought that the CO will have a desicion even before the interview, I am not having much to send anyway, dident meet my wife since a year now and cant send new pics, if i send i can send only lease of house, fb and skp msgs.

You're welcome!

If you think the lease of your house will help to convince them of financial stability or even relationship, it doesn't hurt to send it. However, don't expect that it will automatically get forwarded to embassy for you. From my understanding, they don't need to see that at nvc, not sure that it is bad to include it ahead of interview

I am sending everything together aos and Iv, is it good to send some new ongoing relationship proofs with the IV?

I don't think nvc will care about the extra documents. If anything, they might forward additional info to consulate. Either way you should bring any supporting documents to show relationship to the interview.

WHY I CANT EDIT MY POST?

After a while, that capability disappears. Ask a moderator to edit your post if you wish..

Are you sending the rest of the documents separately? marriage certifcate, passport biographic pages, etc. Send it All together if possible

Are u sure you wanted to share the beneficiary name and case number with everyone? If not, you can edit the post

I have a strange situation (I think).

So, our I-130 got approved in late July, and now we are in the middle of NVC proceedings.

Just last week, our I-129F (K-3) application also got approved at USCIS, and is now in transit to NVC.

My understanding was that USCIS would have administratively closed this I-129F instead of processing and sending to NVC.

Do I need to take any action on this?

Would the I-129F getting processed at NVC mess up/delay the I-130 timelines for us?

Thanks!

USCIS will just forward to NVC. NVC will most likely close i129f when they see your case number for i130 in the system. I have not called to confirm that they closed my i129f, not really worried about it.

Hi guys, what did you sent in the IV packet, an orginal or a copy of your marriage certificate with english translation, i sent the packet to my wife and we dident send it to nvc yet, many people told me they got a request for the original marriage certificate with a translation from nvc after they send their packets, am confused!

Copy of birth certificate. Certified copies of translation if necessary.

My husband finally got the welcome letter in the mail. I called nvc about my DS-261 but they didn't review it :-( how did you guys got them to review it over the phone? We're so anxious to pay the IV and summit the required documents

I waited on the line until someone picked up. Now the option is 7 i believe, to speak to a knowledgeable rep who did not seem to be reading a script.

Call back until you get someone who will help you. Good luck!

Did anyone send their AOS before their Iv? Or did you'll summit both at the same time?

If you can avoid sending it separately, that would be wise, since nvc recommends sending as one package to avoid delays.

BRlove,

On my summary page it looks like yours with 3 N/As, but my husband insisted that it's an error cause on the fee page both AOS and IV are still paid. Confused right now and it's almost 1 AM in Indonesia now lol

Lol i think it is case complete. ..just enjoy it! It's about time

BRlove,

I just checked CEAC too and it's N/A under AOS fee for me. I should ask my husband to call NVC after work.

:)
