Congratulation! I have the same log-in failure of 11/10, and case complete officially per the AVR on 11/12 but I can not get the operator to tell me anything other than the usual script prepared for them.... Good Luck to all!

The nice NVC operator just told me December 15, 2009 at 8AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Fin,

congratulations!..I'm wondering when you got the case completed...I've seen some..the case completed was like late Oct..and..wanna know when it's gonna be me..

G'luck for u and everyone who got the good news today

Cheers

Thanks! My log-in failure was 11/10, and case complete officially per the AVR on 11/12.

congratulations!

hi natt..

just checked my case now... SIGN in FAILED!!!

KTF.....my friend Keep The Faith...You are meant to be happy!

Looks like I wasn't in the group that got sent to Abu Dhabi... I'm going to try calling them on Sunday to see what's going on over there. I don't understand why they're suddenly so busy. There's still a chance I can get an interview scheduled, but the chances are looking more and more grim that it will be in December/January.

VJ,

Well got a RFE for not sending an original certified copy of my Wedding certificate. called the NVC and spoke to an operator who informed me of the same, I requested to speak to a supervisor and explained to her that when I got the certified copy of the certificate the civil registry where only stamping the certificate with one official stamp on the front and that they started stamping the back the certificate six months ago, all she to me was "we need you to send in the original with the certify stamp on both side"

I called the U.S. Consulate in the DR to get a Point Of Contact for the supervisor at the NVC, who I latter called and gave her the all the POC information so she can verify the information about the marriage certificate..... But she reply once again with : Sir, we need you to send in the original with the certify stamp on both side"

Afte that all it came into my mind was a bumper sticker that I once saw " Never argue with an idiot, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience"

Good luck to everyone!

Google it! = IRS local office "your City and States"

Regards,

Do you have a local IRS office? If you do, go to your local IRS office and have them give you a print out of your taxes for the last three years, that what I did... it may work for you...

Regards,

I have a question for everybody.

How long does the IRS take to send the tax transcripts? My co sponsor ordered it like 3 times (once through fax), and hasn't received it yet. I am just really worried, because I have everything except for that part. This is holding me back from sending my AOS documents. I already sent my DS 230.

I also had ordered my tax transcripts about 3 and half weeks ago and haven't received them. For me it's not a problem because I have my tax return copy and all that from 2008 but my co sponsor doesn't and we cannot do anything until that is taken care of.

Has this happened to anybody else or you all just received it in a matter of few weeks?

Thanks for replying. How do I find out if I have a local IRS office? I know I must be asking a stupid question, it might be somewhere online.

I just called NVC and talked to an operator and explained the situation to her, she told me that the DS-230 is not in the system as yet... to give it a few days since they only received yesterday.... False RFE!

Well, they received my package yesterday (10/13/09) also....I have the same problem you have.....

Yes i see ur time line. they receive my package 10/13/09. I will try call them again, what does it mean

Please let me know if ever U will call them

Regards,

I have recived an e-mail answer from NVC today they have answered on my e-mail Choice of Agent DS3032 that is wierd cos they already accepted my DS3032 hard copy wich I had been mailed the same day as my e-mail , so conclusion is NVC faster process mail than e-mail DS3032

Yes, do not count anyone twice! Here is what I typed on the conver letter:

Good Luck!

I searched hte forum but didn't found what exactly I was looking for. So Question 16: Your household size

part a already has 2 there, for me and my spouse who I am sponsoring in this form but than again part b says your spouse, should I enter 1 again here? I will keep the total count to 2 at the end but should I still enter the number here? Jsut confused.

Thanks

Well we received instruction for the DS-230...finally posted the bill as PAID!

Thanks the both of you for your answers....

2 for the DS230, 2 for medical.

NVC does NOT schedule the medical. You do.

NVC does not schedule the medical, but SOME consulates do, others your schedule your own... Each consulate is DEFFERENT.... For example, Italy consulate schedules your medical...

I looked up the DR information on VJ and here is what it stated regarding medical checks;

http://www.consultoriosdevisa.com/english.html (list of doctors)

Avenida Independencia 202, Santo Domingo, Dom. Rep.

Tel : (809)682-3951 Fax : (809)686-3047

E-mail : info@consultoriosdevisa.com

Dr. Jordi Brossa, Dr. Angel R. Contreras, Dr. Alfonso Brossa and Dr. Angel B. Contreras

To pick-up your results you should return to the Consultorios de Visa at 2:00 p.m. of the day BEFORE your consular section appointment. YOU MUST BRING YOUR PASSPORT IN ORDER FOR US TO GIVE YOU THE RESULTS OF YOUR EXAMINATION. In some cases Consultorios de Visa will send your results directly to the consular section.

However, you might want to go to the regional forum for DR and ask DR members who have gone through the process and see what they have done....

Maybe someone that has already gone through the NVC process can answer the following questions:

1. Do we suppose to send 4 photos with the DS-230, Two for the DS-230 and two for the medical exam?

2. Does the NVC schedule the medical exam?

TIA

Yes, I was able to download the form print it and sent the AOS to NVC, I also receive the IV bill today and paid it.

Thanks and good luck to everyone!

Did it work for you yet? I was able to print the document properly today, possibly a glitch on NVC site.

Another Question, the AOS payment it is now showing as "PAID" but the document sheet was poorly scanned into the system and I can not make any sense of the instructions.

Do I download the I-864 EZ and the cover sheet and mail it to the address provided ?

Or do I call and talk to an operator before I send it in?

Here what the cover sheet looks like:

DOCUMENT COVER SHEET

After printing this cover sheet, the next immigration process is for the Petitioner to

Failure to do this may result in a delay in processing. attach this page to the front of the documents

Hello:

Quick question, the IV bill shows paid now! However the document cover sheet is not displaying correctly. The bardcode at the bottom of the page is half cut off and even the cover sheet is missing words as in instead of displaying, "Failure to return this cover sheet with the documents...." it displays, "Failur to return this cover sheet with the docu delay in processing".

Should I send it in "as is"? I tried accessing from different browsers and even saved and tried to open with different PDF programs but it doesnt display properly.

Any suggestions?

HMMMM strange... Have you tried to save it, then go to print preview and reduce the size to like 75% ??? Just a suggestion.... Or without saving it, when you click on print this page, try to see if you can reduce it?

Congratulations!

Finally my DS-3032 is accepted after 14 days , and IV bill generated

wow congrats.. Finally... I am still waiting for my Ds3032.. Grrr.. almost 7 days :-)

So now you are ready to pay 400$ .. good luck...

Hi all, just recieved my DS3032 and AOS fee bill. Will pay the bill right away never mind its the weekend and will also send the DS3032 vial email and snail mail.

Congratulation!

I also received the DS – 3032 via e-mail today, I paid the AOS fee and e-mailed the DS – 3032 using my wife e-mail account.

My wife has already signed a hard copy of the DS – 3032 which we downloaded in anticipation of the NVC procedures, I will send in a hardcopy to the address provided by the NVC, just in case.

Does anybody know if I can cut off the barcode off the DS – 3032 and glue or tape it to the form I downloaded?

Good luck to all!

I got that DS3032/AOS email today too! Just paid AOS fee online, but my husband is very sick and can't e-mail the DS3032 just yet. But I have the e-mail all ready to go just need him to copy and paste it once he's feeling better...

I'm thinking maybe I should just ask for his password and send it for him...but he's so sick and he has a sore throat that he doesn't even want to talk now...

but I guess since we are hoping for a later interview date---hopefully January/february, we don't have to hurry as much anyway...

Good luck every one!
