My husbands case just updated to “ready to be scheduled for an interview”. Is anyone else waiting in this status and how long have you been waiting?

AOS filed on 05/17/2018. Interview is now scheduled. It took 15 months. 

You mean AOS filed in 2017 if it took 15 months?

What was your RFIE for?

Not sending in the affidavit of support so I sent that in with all the supporting docs

my husband  got an RFIE on 7/10( app updated stating RFIE was mailed), had his bio appt on 7/16 then on 7/19 status changed to “fingerprints were reviewed.” Has anyone else had this? I thought RFIE paused the review processed. They just received our response today.

Did you not send a I-864 with your AOS applications? It is one of the requirements, since they want proof of income of 125% of the poverty line. In k-1 is only 100% of the poverty line

No, I didn’t. I read some posts online by attorneys saying it’s not required so I went with that but easy enough fix at least. 

We just got a RFIE for the I864, affidavit of support, I read that wasn’t required since we completed that at the K1 stage so I didn’t include it. Did others include it or not include it?

hey, i send my package on June 14, 2018 and till now i haven't received any notification from USCIS

When was it delivered? Mine was delivered on the 14th and still no notification or cash checked. 

I just sent in my husbands AOS application and it was received on 6/14. I realized I incorrectly put a6 instead of c9 on the EAD application. We haven’t received the notice of receipt yet, I’ve read that I should send a letter requesting the change from a6 to c9 to be made with a copy of the receipt notice. I wanted to see if anyone had any additional suggestions and/or expierence with this? I really don’t want us to get denied for EAD and then have to wait another 3 months !

Hey good Marchies!

I come from the September forum to join you guys here! We were approved 22. March

I have a question regarding the DS-160, I think I've seen it on here but I can't seem to find it now. 

I'm wondering about the question "Has anyone ever filed an immigrant petition on your behalf with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services? "

Am I meant to put "Yes" and then as explanation just write our WACno. or something, or should I leave it blank?

When i filled it out for my fiancee, i put no. The way i read the question, it excludes the current application/process we're going through. They know we're filing the petition now so i think they want to know if there were any other prior times.

My case status just changed to ready but when i try to create the application to schedule the interview it states it's not ready for an interview. Has anyone else experience this?

Visa/Interview fee paid, interview booked for 4/9, and flight booked for 4/6!!!

My case status just changed to ready but when i try to create the application to schedule the interview it states it's not ready for an interview. Has anyone else experience this?

To my fellow group 5 people, how long did it take to go from in transit to at embassy?

Received the NVC case number today (Called today). Based on the number they gave it was assiged on Friday 03/23/2018 (Still at NVC) NOA2 was 03/09/2018

Were you option 5 or 7 group when calling?

For people in group 5 when calling NVC, how long did it take for it to go from at NVC to in transit?

Where do you see the group 5? Thanks.

Once NVC has your case, if you're in the electronic group, they'll tell you to call back and dial option 5 instead of 7.

Is this random or is everyone gonna be in this "electronic group"?

It's based on how the embassy wants to receive cases. So embassy decides if they want electronic or paper copy. The ones in group 5, the embassy chose to receive cases electronically and set up a process for it.

Just now, Trinab80 said:

If you don't mind me asking....what do you mean by the "electronic group"?

When you call NVC, once they have your case they'll tell you if you need to call back and press option 5. This means you're in the electronic group and it's embassy based and means they will send your case to the embassy electronically and they will have it same day. It does take longer for this group to get a case number so at this point I'd rather be in the regular group.

NOA2 March 2

 

I just called, still no case number... it's been 23 days. This feels personal. Anyone else in my shoes? 

Me. NOA2 2/27, NVC received 3/16 and still no case number. I haven't seen anyone in the electronic group take over 7 days. I did see some people get their case number on the 8th day so the 6th business day from NVC receive date and I'm on the 6th business day. If I don't have it today I'm going to ask to speak to someone who can tell me what's going on with my case, if it's even been touched. It's going to be a month since NOA2 tomorrow!

Got my case number today, but not sure how to track it's progress to the Embassy.

Were you on the option 5 or option 7 when you called NVC? Go to the CEAC website and input your case # under immigrant visa.

so how long do cases typically spend at the NVC before getting sent off? Thank you.

Depends on if you’re in the option 5 or option 7 group. I’ve seen some spend 10-14 days at NVC but others get sent in one day

No, I was told this by a visa blogger, that's what the NVC does. Could Administrative Processing mean scanning petitions to go abroad?

They don’t do this to Fiancè visas.. I’ve read that 1% get told they’re in AP for a Fiancè visa and that may be because uscis didn’t process something correctly. Whoever told you that was most likely talking about CR1 visas which is the marriage visa.. NVC is a much bigger stage for them than for us. They scan every case to send to embassy and that’s not referred to as AP.

Me too LarissaXoX. I figured I will wait till next Friday March 31st to make my first call to NVC.

Ohhh I see your NOA2 date is 3/16. I'm talking about NVC receiving the case on 3/16. My NOA2 date is 2/27.

People have gotten their case numbers within a week of them being received by NVC. I would def. suggest calling today. Let me know what they say if you do call!

Just now, marinapoli said:

me..

Let me know when you call again today what they say! It seems from what I've read they assign case #s in the morning. I haven't seen anyone say they got theirs in the afternoon but I haven't asked too many people haha
