Thank you, That was helpful. Couple of further doubts that I do have:

1. I 134 is for my fiance (petitioner living in US) as this is proof of support?

2. Do I need to prepare any of other set of documents other than PCC in the meantime?

3. My case was registered by NVC on Oct 13th, so any idea generally how long does it take to push them the case to embassy?

Thanks again ..

Yes, the I-134 is for the petitioner. Your fiance will have to send all the supporting documents to you.

Just the PCC and any other documents that you may want to show as proof of your relationship.

It normally takes 3-7 days for the NVC to send out your file to the embassy. I would say give it till about the end of October to hear from the embassy. It generally takes about 2-3 weeks from once you have your NVC case number. Keep tracking your case on the CEAC website.

When you have the appointment letter from the embassy - you can go ahead and schedule the medical and fill out the DS 160 and pay the visa fee.

In some cases if the embassy takes long to send out your appointment letter you can call them 3-4 days after the CEAC website says your case is ready and see if they have sent out the letter. In any case you can always ask them to email the letter to you as well.

Hey folks, I have just received my case number and Invoice number from NVC, can somebody please help me with the next step.

I see all the discussions happened above are things to do after case is "Ready" but when I check the status in CEAC, it says In NVC

Thanks in advance..

Hey

It must have not left the NVC yet. Once it leaves the embassy and is on its way to your consulate the CEAC website status will say "In Transit". Once it gets to your consulate it will say ready. In the mean time you should start gathering all your documents mainly PCC, I-134 documents, and anything else you may need. You will have to wait for the consulate to send you a letter to schedule the medical. Hope this helps.

They asked me to bring 8000 rupees! But since I had already taken all the vaccinations I only had to pay 5000.

Thanks for responding. I set up an appointment with them today and they asked me to bring 20000 for the exam and the tests.

Hey,

Call 91-120-4844644 they will ask for your case number, also there is no packet 3, only instructions list!

They will mail you the instructions list which tells you what to do next all the best!

I know!

But all the best you guys, hang in there!

Question - How much did you pay for your medical exam?

-Also, I had an extra question, Our status on vfs site reads "READY" to set up an interview, what does this mean?

- I am not sure if I am suppose to book the interview, the site says I have to wait for a letter asking me to book an interview, is this correct?

-My fiance just received NVC letter stating our case number in it, I am guessing they have already sent our case to the Mumbai Embassy but I have not received any Packet 3 or 4 according to my understanding (after reading on vj) I will not get a Packet 3 from them, probably will get an email. Am I suppose to send these documents somewhere if yes, then Where and when should I send the documents mentioned on the Packet 3?

I called the customer service today and she said she sent an email on my behalf requesting for packet 3 and packet 4. I am going to call them again tomorrow, but is there anyone over here who have gone through this mess and came out successfully lol?!

Thank you so much, really appreciate all the responses!

Hey

Our case status reads "READY" as well. I was wondering what number did you call for customer service to request for Packet 3 and 4. Have you received those packets yet?

This is all so confusing and i'm so glad everyone on VJ is so helpful!

Thanks

Had a question about setting up the medical in mumbai. The NVC tracker says the case is ready, so I head over to the consulate site to see the next steps. They list setting up the medical appointment before filling out the ustraveldoc site and getting an appointment. The instructions for medical however want you to bring along the appointment letter. Can anyone who has been through this help clear the confusion ?

Hey question - how did you schedule your medical in Mumbay? Is there a list, for hospitals and clinics that we can choose from?

Thanks

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo we got approved just now! We're so happy we finally got it!

So do we wait for the hard copy then call the NVC or can we do that before? So exciting!

Yay!! We got approved today too!!!

We got approved today too!! So happy and excited. Wishing everyone luck on their journey

What should I be preparing for now?

My nao1 is 24th June and I am waiting for my nao2. Called to ask and the guy who we spoke to didn't have a clue what he was talking about. I asked what decides which service Center your app goes to. He said hang on I will ask someone and then he came back and said I don't know. It's stressful waiting.

I guess its just luck at the end of the day. Fingers crossed we'll get it in a week or two. Its really stressful and its making me anxious as well.

Damn...what could be wrong? NOA1 June 2, and still have not received any decision???

Hang in there - NOA1 June 29 although a while after your NOA1 but still waiting. Its frustrating and hard to think about but have faith it will come through.

So, while we wait for our NOA2 we're prefiling the I-134 and we stumbled upon this:

"I have on deposit in savings banks in the United States" So what do we specify? Just the savings accounts or do we sum everything (checking account, 401k, etc)?

Waiting for our NOA2 as well we received our NOA 1 June 29th

Any June filers still waiting for their NOA2's?

NOA 1 - June 29th

No sign of the NOA2, its making me anxious and sad.
