Alveoli

October 2019 filer here, finished my biometrics Nov last year (San Francisco office). When I checked my case, my estimate was suppose to be October but now it says, they are taking longer than expected to process. Keeping a positive thought here, hoping to hear back before end of the month. 🤞

Hi All,

I'd like to share the good news,we got our CR1 visa approved last March 10.

I can't thank everyone enough in this site for being so supportive.

Just waiting for our passport to be delivered this week. Again, thank you so much!

Hi All--

Does anyone know what "Ready" means in the CEAC website? Based on my readings, it should mean that the case is ready for interview and that the "actual" papers are already with the US embassy here in Manila. We also already received an email from NVC telling us of when the interview date is, however when we called US Embassy, I was told that our papers are not physically received yet by the US Embassy.

We called USEM to check if the papers are already there and if we can get an earlier schedule since Im already done with Medical exam and my papers are ready.. Is there a way to track as to where the actual papers are at the moment?

Thank you in advance!

Was able to get letter from US embassy today telling that they are done reviewing our papers. We were also able to get an earlier schedule date, from March 23, we are now scheduled next week March 10!!

Call NVC and them when did ypur case file physically leave for the Embassy.

The embassy may have scanned it in but it's not ready yet.

Like our receive date at NVC than about 2 weeks later we get case number and they can comment on case and such.

Your Case Status date is what?

I got the "ready" status in CEAC website last Feb 27.

Got our NVC Interview Letter.

Scan Date: Dec 28th

CC: Feb 4

Interview date: March 23

I see lots of CC today in this thread! Congrats and Good luck to all of us!!

congratulations

what is ur scan date,

Scan date is December 28.

Got CC on Feb 4 yet no email from NVC yet. I called them today to check on when will I receive it and was told that I am already set up for an interview on March 23, 730 AM MNL time.

Now that is a GOOD NEWS!!

Ohhhh I see.. Have you got your CC now?

Yes got my CC: Last Feb 4.

I'm so pissed right now. My husband mailed the documents on 28th Jan and I thought they'd received the documents and I called NVC today and they told me that they haven't received any documents yet .. The status for delivery post office also says pending.. So our documents are misplaced I guess cuz it's been 10 days. So we're planning to send through Fed-ex express now.

Is it okay if they receive the documents twice cuz there could be a possibility that that they receive it after some time. Please let me know guys. So upset

Same thing happened to us, NVC received two mails from us. One dated Dec 8, the other was dated Dec 28th. When we called NVC we were told that our scan date has reset to the later date which was Dec 28th rather than Dec 8...

IN THE NAME OF JESUS...IN NAME OF JESUS!

Scan date: 12/31/15

Case Complete: 2/4/16

Thank you to everyone that helped me and kept me encouraged. And thank Amy at the NVC for giving me the wonderful news.

Congrats!! See? we were hoping for Friday and you actually got it today!!

God is Great!

Alveoli, would you be so kind to ensure that your timeline is correct? Someone had a question regarding how your scan date and the date you mailed in your documents could be the same (12/28).

And although we've talked offline...you know that I couldn't be more any more happier for you! Congrats my friend???

Thanks

Yes I had it corrected already and added the NVC case completion date as well.

@alveoli. congratz.i am confused .your timeline says you send documents on 28 december.then how ur scan date can be same day?

I have to update the timeline details.

We sent our papers to NVC few days before the Holiday and NVC got it on the 28th of December.

Case completed today! saw the 3rd NA and called NVC to confirm.

A lady confirmed, that the case got completed today February 4!.

I am very happy! BTW my scan date was December 28.

Thank you and Good luck to all of us!! :* :*

omg i just talked to nvc and my case is completed.. wow i started crying. i sent everything thru the mail. no electronic filing.. wow... i am in shocked... I'm calling my wife to give her the amazing news!!!!!!

Congratulations!!!

Case complete, seen three na and called to confirm. Scan date 12/28

OMG!! Congrats!!

Same scan date as mine. I checked just now but nothing yet for me. but I am getting some more hope on this!

Congrats!

Sorry for asking this, whats the checklist for?

Thanks dwheels76. And Alveoli for the follow up. I still have a ways to go as my scan date is 12/31 (hopefully this week ??) but it makes me more aware of what to look for and expect. Haven't seen any CC's for 12/24, 12/28 or 12/30 so....I'm close. Was hoping that last week's activity would filter over to this week...

We are kind of on the same boat shsl73, mine is Dec 28th. I have a friend from here (same scan date as mine) who got her CC last Jan 28th, so I freaked out a little. haha

But this conversation is really helping me out. I have not seen any other CCs for your mentioned dates either. I miss my husband so much and I'm really hoping to get updates this week as well. Good luck to all of us!

No not automatically. Case Complete email comes 7 days later. That's why we watch the NA's then call to verify.

Gotcha! Thanks

..and just to add to shsl73's question, do you automatically receive an email confirmation once the system is updated to 3 N/As?

It can be anywhere from 30 to 45 days. Really look at Business days to get a realistic timeline. Could be less could be more.

The cases are assigned to varies reps in the center everyone doesn't work at the same pace. Also the person in from of you could have had a 1000 page case file. Who knows you are almost there. I am seeing 12/28 getting CC's so just keep your eyes on our status for the 3 NA's

Thanks Dwheels76! I am closely watching for the 3 N/As hopefully this week.

Thanks again!

Thank You. I already have our case number and invoice ID, I was referring to case completion at NVC. Or is there a different case number/Invoice ID that I need to get? We were told to wait for feedback to see if we can have our interview schedule with immigration office here in the Philippines which will happen once our case with NVC gets completed.

Hi All--

I just wanted to reach out to anyone who has the same or close to our NVC scan date. We received an email from NVC saying that they received our papers last December 28th and that we need to wait for 30 days. I know a few from this site who has same scan date and their case has already been complete, yet to this date we haven't received any feedback for our case (aside from the generic response from NVC hotline that our process is under review already... )

we were also told that process may take 30-45 days rather than just 30 days.

I guess, I just want to know if there are also people out there who shares the same experience..

Thank you in advance!

Hi All--

First, I am amazed by how much information and support I can see from this site. Thank you for creating this forum.

Second, I am not sure if its okay to post my concern here as the subject title says February and my scan date is Dec 28, so I apologize if I'm messing up the convo here.

Thanks All.

Was able to call NVC. It turned out there was no issue with our papers. My dear Husband is just too excited to see me that he panicked and got confused with the information given to him.

Jan 30th will be the 30th day of our papers in NVC, hopefully we got all the things they need to avoid further delays. Hopefully we will be able to close our case at NVC by first week of Feb.

Again, thank you for the help!
