Hi All,

I need to confirm the courier service to collect my passport later after the interview. I tried to log in on the website but bit confused. Should I choose the "Delivery Registration" or "All Immigrant" option? the thing that makes me confused is IF I chose "Delivery Registration", the confirmation page shows my DS160 number instead of my DS260. If I chose the "All Immigrant" option, at the end of the step I need to select a date for an interview although my interview is scheduled by NVC. 

So which option should I choose?

From memory .. i do not believe that an original “ wet” signature is needed of the I864 for interview .. a photocopy or printed emailed copy is ok  

ah ok, hopefully printed copy is fine. One more thing, how about the Case id is not found on CGI website ? any experience ?

Where there is a difference between the general information given on the NVC site and the information given by your Consulate, always follow the Consulate information 

Hi @Lil bear,

Thank you for your reply but the interview letter didn't really tell whether the copy of affidavit support is fine. 

Hi All,

I got interview letter from NVC (01/12/23). I'm trying to gather all things I need for the interview, but I have things that I'm sure, could anyone help me on this? thank you.

1. Do I need to bring original affidavit of support to the interview? or would it be enough just the copy. This makes me confused because I read two different thread said two different things. Meanwhile on NVC prep website they say this: "You do not need to bring your Affidavit of Support or financial evidence you submitted to NVC". any thought?
2. On the letter said, I need to bring all documents that I submitted on CEAC. What other document that I should bring?
3. They said, I need to register for courier / pick up passport. I tried to log in my CGI account, create a new application, enter my preference pick up / courier service and on the last step, it said The Case ID that you have entered cannot be found.  any idea how to solve this ?

Thank you, happy weekend

Omg…..never gonna get the approval….congrats to those around my 9/6/21 filing date I am so happy for y’all but more and more depressed by the day when I can’t get any information. I’m over this process. 

So sorry to hear that, have you submitted online inquiry to USCIS? 

3 hours ago, Sarah Ro said:

Thanks! Of course you may…

 

We submitted the I-864 form and 3 years of tax transcripts. 

They accepted them, however asked for my husband to submit a proof of employment. 
 

I think is because he started to work in US on summer this year. He is American, but had never work there as his parents moved to Spain when he was a teenager. 
 

Now we have submitted the job offer letter as well as pay-statements that proof he exceeds the HHS Poverty Guidelines. 
 

I hope this is good enough and we get DQ soon 🤞🏼

Ah ok, now I wonder if I need to submit the proof of employment too. Thanks.

I hope you get DQ soon and hope the rest of us get DQ soon too.

I guess this message comes when you upload the documents in the span of more than 10 days..   This is what I noticed.  If it says "DS-260 review note" - the will not review until all are submitted, then it looks like it is normal.  At least I say one case 2 months back like this.  But for me now I did not get any note and I started submitting from 19th and finally submitted all today.  I am going to see if I get anything tonight...   

I submit DS-260 the same day as I submit the other documents. It does say "DS-260 review note" - they will not review until all docs are submitted. Hopefully it's nothing to worry. Thank you for your reply

Hi Everyone!

 

We submitted all docs on the 13th of October. On the 26 of November we received an email of a case updated, they accepted all docs and requested more proofs of income from petitioner.

We resubmitted what the asked for on the same day (26th of November). 
 

I hope they don’t take over a month again to review the case. This process is very draining 😔

 

Best of luck to everyone 🤞🏼
 

I will keep you all posted!

Hi, good luck to you too!

may I know what proofs of income you submit in the first submission?  

thank you

We submitted everything today but 12 hours later, got message on CEAC said something like: they will not review until they received all required doc. Should I be worried? I'm pretty sure we submit all required docs and even add bunch of additional documents.

The light is at the end of the tunnel. It's hard but the day will come, and it looks like soon! I'm wishing you all still waiting the best of luck!

Congratulations!!!

Any recent approvals? Especially wondering how my fellow petitioners stuck at Potomac are doing. There are not so many recent approvals in the last 15 list and it's really discouraging.

 

We're waiting over 14 months now and it feels like it'll never end. I submitted an expedite request, and 30 days went by, never assigned to an officer. I'm not even going to bother with this stuff anymore, any effort to move things forward is futile. 

 

We are so mentally and emotionally exhausted. How do you feel?

We got approved last week on November 15 and yesterday we got a notification our case was sent to the department of state.

SC: Potomac

PD: 09/15/21
AR: 01/28/22
NOA2: 11/15/22

I can relate to you, it's so frustrating but it all shall pass.  I think your approval will be soon.

Did you check under the documents tab in your online account?

yes, but nothing there

Hello!

we just got email from no-reply@uscis.dhs.gov said "We have taken an action on your case" but nothing on myuscis. Is this a another glitch ?

There isn't a "clock" that they are going by, so being transferred doesn't affect the amount of time much. They're still reviewed in roughly the order of PD.

thank you for ur reply

Does anybody knows, if the case was transferred to different service center, when did the processing time clock start ? was it when we filed and received NoA1 or when it got to the new service center?

It said because it's still in normal processing time
