    Posted

    Hi VJ fam,

    My mom had her interview earlier and the lady told her and give her a letter stating that she need to submit a new NBI with her 3 names on it since that we have different surname. (We are both married) my concern is, how long it will take for her to get her visa after submitting the said document? Is anyone here have the same case? Any advice?

    Thank you in advance

    CFO Seminar in Manila Philippines

    She can attend the CFO seminar whenever it is convenient for her. If she goes before her interview, she will receive a certificate of completion but she has to return after she receives her visa to get the sticker placed in her passport. However, if she goes after she receives her visa, she can get both her certificate and sticker in one day. Just make sure you reserve her spot online because they do not accept walk-ins :)

    Thank you so much ?

    RFE from NVC

    Hi vj,

    I'm petitioning for my mom. I got a RFE from

    NVC June 10 looking for a divorce paper of my mom to my dad. I sent it to them June 11 and NVC got it June 16. My question is, do I have to wait another 30-45 days again to get a result on my case? Most probably how many days I have to wait to have an interview schedule on MNLA embassy after case completed? I just can't wait to see my mom??

    I'm also an April filer, sent to the Chicago lockbox on 4/7 and assigned to NSC. They received it April 11th and I got an email and text but also received a letter in the mail about a week later. It was one page of exactly the same info in the email, so I agree, you're good as long as you have the receipt number!

    Cessa, was your I-130 approved in one month?? Congrats!! Were you filing AOS?

    Did you also call the service center, and what did you ask? I feel like it's just waiting and assuming they are working on it, but let us know if you have any tips! ;)

    Yes, I was surprised and blessed they approve it so fast. I didn't actually call Nebraska service center, I just keep on checking my case status online. I'm done with my AOS and IV. Now, I'm waiting for cc and interview date. Hope I'll get schedule soon.

    Tip: once your case approved, call NVC at least twice a week to get case number so you could start even without the actual approve letter. ??

    God bless us all?

    Hi my visajourney family,

    I petition my mother and she'll be here mid July or August. My questions are, can she file a petition for my sister and brother as soon as she gets here or should wait for her green card? I know green card will take upto 120 days to received. My sister will turn 18 this June and my brother just turn 16. I hope they are qualify as f2a. How long it usually take to process f2a?

    Thanks in advance vj fam!

    Try to check the status of your case at least twice a week. it'll take upto 5mons to get approve. It's okay even you didn't get NOA1 for as long as you have the receipt number your fine.

    I got mine approved for 1 month and 1day after uscis received my case.

    Hi visajourney family!

    How's your case at NVC? My case was sent to NVC may 5 and received may 7 and until now still in the process of reviewing it. I know it'll take a while. I just can't wait to have a case complete.

    Not sure if I should start to get her schedule for medical at st. Luke's or should I wait till I got the interview date? How long it will take to have a schedule for interview at Manila embassy after case completed at NVC?

    Thanks in advance visajourney family ?

    IR-5 petition for Alien relative (petitioning my mother)

    hi I just have a question pls. so my AOS is showing paid already. WHat should be the next step? file for the affidavit of support? or wait for the IV to be paid?

    Thank you

    Hi mhaze,

    What I could suggest is to fill out the i864 affidavit of support and start collecting all the documents that you needed while waiting for IV fee to be available. Also you have to send those documents in one envelop but separate them using clips.

    Third time calling NVC. i just like to call every week lol!. this time I called 2pm and a nice agent answer. I told him my aos showing not paid and I already paid it Dec 21, he said it's rejected either I put the wrong info or I have to call my bank. I also ask if he can unlock the IV fee so I can pay it together. He said yes I can review your ds-261 over the phone now. (in my mind I was thinking wow finally got a nice agent that willing to review my ds-261). He just ask me what is your birthdate and who is the agent. He told me it will take about 7 days for them to send me the IV fee Bill before I can pay. I ask him another question if I can submit the aos and IV document together. He said yes but I have to separate them with rubber band. ( in my mind huh rubber band. I'm going to rolled them up :rofl: lol!.) But I'm not going to follow what he said about rubber band I just going to put a paper clip or folder for aos and iv document so it look more presentable and nice then send them in one envelope. Done paying AOS fee. Then after 2days the IV fee become available I didnt have to wait 7 days like the agent said. Done paying IVF just waiting for the website to show paid. After I pay IVF It took 8days before my IVF showed paid,

    I went online fill up the ds-260 form while answering the form I'm on the Skype with my mom and I have kids in the house my baby and her classmates that sleep over 4kids distracting me while answering the form. then one is watching YouTube kids toys can you buy me this? look my little pony toys watch it and me say yes. After that come back again with another can you buy me this and the other one can I have this. Can I have candy can we watch Elsa etc can we have popcorn I'm almost done on the form. my daughter decided get up in the kitchen counter. I'm almost done just signing the form last part she start yelling mama help and the her classmate running she's in the counter she can't get down. And my daughter mama help I can't get down. So I click on the form no the last part question if someone help you answering the form the best of your knowledge etc.. I click no then submit then run in the kitchen before my daughter fall help them with popcorn and movie. I was hurrying answer the form so I can help my daughter so I click no then submit then print then run in the kitchen. I was Thinking just comeback edit after I I fix the movie and popcorn etc then I come back try to edit it. I can't after you submit it become lock. So the next day I call the nvc I ask if she can unlock the ds-260 because I make a mistake. She ask me what kind of mistake I did. I told her I click no on the last part if somebody help you. I click no but I help my mom. She told me no we can't unlock it. you can fix it in the interview day. I said 2 more question how much is the medical fee and can my mom have a accompany at her medical?. She said I dont know depends on the embassy. I thank her and appreciate her. all the nvc agent I talk for me they're all nice and very helpful. After talk on the phone I just shake my head for my mistake arggg. Well I can't do nothing right now just wait for interview day to fix the ds-260. now just waiting for my mom to send me the document I need to send for NVC. (note: don't forger to print the immigration visa and alien registration application confirmation. Your parent print it or you then send to your parent. Your parent need to bring the confirmation for the interview proof that you submit the ds-260).

    I've been waiting for my mom to send me her police clearance and passport picture etc.. I need so I can submit the aos and IV document. Finally after 16 days waiting for her to send it to me Now my aos and IV document ready to submit to nvc. I make my own document list I dont want to use the document cover sheet that just check what you send that I got from email. So I make my own letter document list so I know exactly what I send I won't forget. then I print the document cover sheet at ceac website.

    I also post my document list at visa journey Facebook other said you shouldn't send original take it out you send to much paper doesn't need. Other said also i never send original to nvc unless they ask. The reason why I send original because this is what I want. I know they will send it back if doesn't need it like they did to my papers before and I know they will ask it in interview day. I just make it easier for my mom so they already have it and won't ask it and she doesnt need to carry to much paper. And all my batch mate in visa journey back in 2008 who petition their parent did the same I just follow their advice also. For me better to send that you think they may ask the document than to have a RFE heheheh Now just wait for NVC review my papers :D

    Hi my dear! Just wondering if it's really take 30 days to get an update after submitting all the documents. Is your mom here already? I submitted my docs may 7, and I called today the agent said they're still reviewing it. Hope everything is fine and I have no missing docs.
