When did you submit your documents?

In August and those files were accepted in September. I had one resubmit some other files and it’s like the joint sponsor part has disappeared.

WARNING POINTLESS RANT BELOW!:
 
So I am on my fourth submission (first one in April) and this time I have waited 7 whole weeks... and today still nothing
 
Two days ago they were reviewing Oct 21st and mine is Oct 23rd, and people who submitted on the 22nd have been getting DQ since Monday!!!!
 
They shut down the system for 10 bloody days because apparently it's undergoing maintenance, but that's obviously a lie, and no organisation around the world would have their systems down for more than a day.
 
So they had 10 whole days of no submissions, and that still does not ease their workload apparently....
 
I am so over this BS
 
10 months at the USCIS and now 9  months and counting at the NVC
 
I just want this endless nightmare to be over  
 
 

Just got off with NVC. I submitted all my stepdaughter's papers on 11/07/2019 and then on 11/14/2019 I submitted another copy of her BC because I noticed the bottom was cut off. The agent informed me that the submission date they are using is the 14th not the 7th.  She gave the same song and dance about how they are working on October submissions.  I asked why is it that someone I know of submitted on 11/11/2019 and they were approved today.  She said she has no idea.  Basically, I have to keep reminding myself everything will be complete when it's complete

Congrats! Ours is 11/14, I’m crossing my fingers 🤞🏻

just keep trying. Email they are behind right now. But keep calling everyday and wait at least 30 minutes to one hour or more if you can. 

Try calling at either 7am EST or after 8pm EST.

Thanks!  No, I started 2 weeks before the final submit day.

We got DQ notice in our emails this morning!  Submitted 11/11.  Exactly 1 month.  So excited!!

Hi, folks!
Second submission on 10/25.
Waiting in God some good news this week! 🙏🏻

We still have 2 more weeks before 12/24, so let’s hope for the good one

Just got our DQ email from NVC for docs submitted on October 22!

Fingers crossed man! It’s a long wait...

Yes finger crossed 

Hi guys,
 
after many months of waiting like you all, we had our interview in London today and were in, approved and back out in 45 mins!!!
 
really nice experience and as everyone says, absolutely nothing to be nervous about if you PREPARE,PREPARE and PREPARE again! 
 
Just 3 or 4 simple Random questions after the paperwork had been checked, with a very nice professional American lady ... it really is a conversational interview 
 
will have our visas back in 5-7 days then it’s new year, new start in the US!
 
 
this forum has been a source of great help and hope over the last few months and I will always be very grateful 
 
 
good luck to you all 🇺🇸
 
 

Mine the same date on 11/07.and same proirity date 09/26/2018. Hopfully we will get DQ next week 

That is excellent news! Thank you for sharing  

It was Oct 11th - 21st. They will be working on any backlog created by the maintenance issue now since yesterday they were working on the 21st so the processing time posted on the 16th will give us a better idea of when people who submitted after the outage will hear back. 

Issue was in mid November not September, as many visa journey members complained about having problem to upload their documents.
 
Wish for a speedy process for all.

I worked with CEAC for two weeks from Nov 3rd-15th with no issues. I think that shutdown was the prior month or maybe even late September from memory.

I submitted my documents on Nov 1, still waiting for a response from them. I'm thinking to believe its would be next week since there was Thanksgiving break and couple of snow days that could make it to 7 weeks instead of 6 weeks. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed and praying that I get DQ from them by the end of this week!

NVC had system shut down in second week of November for 10 days, many people around the world unable to upload their documents during that time. Can't say for sure in this week, but coming week definitely be ours. Fingers crossed.🤞🤞

I submitted my documents Nov 4th as well.. No DQ email yet 

let’s hope so, plus they had probably a week in break to from thanksgiving. So if we do find out will it be end of this week correct? If not end of next week?

I submitted my documents to NVC on 4th November, didn't get back from them so far. NVC normally takes 4-6 weeks to review the documents. Let's hope for the best to come in this week and keep update.
