I've been investigating a little bit on the NVC web and i saw that the confirmation number it's the same that the first time that i sent the 'Choice of Agent',
so it's nothing to worry about because anybody can make a mistake with the filling of the forms and we can modify until the day of the interview.
Otherwise, if they see any suspicious, maybe they can ask you to show more documents, but i got all the confirmations that i made, so like i said, it's
nothing to worry about!

Okay but, which clock can restart? I'm on the 30 day waiting for the NVC check the document that they asked me on the last checklist.
I didn't changed any information, i was thinking about and i think that this is like the 'last conexion online' from the WhatsApp, with the
resubmit of the choice of agent, they see if you made any change, and the form of the choice of agent are only a few questions that in
just hours they enable the first fee payment, so it doesn't have any sense, don't you think?

Hello to all again!
I'm writing because i have a question:
Today i was looking my case on the CEAC page, and I entered on the option 'Choice of Agent'. I've saw my information that I filled,
and after see that all was correct, I went back to the main page, and my curiosity is about what i saw. The status of the 'Choice of Agent'
changed to incompleted, when before do that, it was completed. For leave it correct, i had to resend the form, and after that, it return to completed.
Do you think that this is going to interrupt my 30 day waiting?
Thanks to all of you

Thanks for the info! I have to be patience...
-
When my case was completed, the letter from the NVC already had my interview date ready. It may be different depending on the consulate, but I believe they will schedule it for you.
Thanks for your reply!
And one more question, how much time you have to wait from the date that you get your case completed to the day you received the letter?

Hello to all!
I'm writing this post because i have a question on my mind i maybe you can help me to resolve it.
If my case gets complete, the time of waiting for the interview date is the same than other caterogies? I mean, my fathers inlaws had to
wait almost 2 months to get her interview date, and it was for the next month, so a total of 3 months of waiting. I'll have to wait the same
time? Because i have read that the IR-1 processings are more faster that the others.
Thanks to all for the attention.

Hello!
I was reading your posts and you said that the police clearance (or police records) are good for a year, and my question is because i received a checklist
on my case and the agent on the phone told me that was for that document. I was found the copy that i sent to NVC and saw that was issued on
January 9th. (So the expiring date was April 9th and the checklist i got on June 19th).
In Spain, i've readed that all the certificates have and expiring date of 3 months, so i think that was the reason of the checklist.
Do you think that maybe is not for that reason?
-
OMG, that's crazy.... Have you asked for a supervisor review?
OP, have you heard anything yet? My scan date is May 18th, so same as you but still haven't heard anything. Somehow, this wait is even worse than USCIS. Maybe because there seems to be such a high risk of a checklist at NVC.
Anyway, fingers crossed that both of us hear something this week.
Wow, so we have the same scan date! We hope to get any news about our case today or tomorrow night, so good luck to you too!
If i know something i will let you know by this post or a private message!
-
Yes! On day 29th
Thanks for the info! Have to be a little more patience until that day comes!
-
I'm right on the 23th day and it's just 7 more days till the 30th day. I hope to get any news about my case on this days but, if not, i will think that
i have to wait 12 more days (until the 42th day), as i read in this forums. Anyone get his case complete in the first 30 days?
-
So, if NVC told me that they received my documents on May 18th, probably next week i will get some news about my case, hope to be true
-
Hi there,I'm writing to all of you because on the past May 18th NVC received my civil documents that they told me that were missingand i want to know how much time it will take to make the review and get the case completed. Before sending the documents,the lady who spoke with me by the phone call told me that the documents were the last thing that i will need to complete my case,so i'm hoping to get it as soon as posible!Thanks to all for you attention!

Getting a checklist for the IV fee and DS-260 isn't a big deal. It's just a reminder that they don't have it and doesn't waste any time at all. It's getting the checklist for the AOS documentation or missing civil docs that you already sent that you want to avoid.
Your message was the one that i was looking for keep it calm until i get my case completed.
On April 10th I received a checklist from NVC asking me for the IV Fee that i haven't paid on that date. Right now, I paid the fee and
filled/sent the form DS260 on April 16th, and i'm just waiting for the final decision. Hope that happen soon, right now
I'm on the 44 day of 60. Maybe i have to count the days from the date that i received the checklist, or doesn't matter because,
like you said, it was just a remainder for make the payment.
-
I am planning on sending all my documents before they invoice me the IV Fee. Do I need to send the AOS and IV documents in just one package or two different packages?
Thanks
Yes, you have to send it separately, and be sure that you put in both the cover letter of the first form, the DS261,
it doesn't matter if you put the cover of one form or another, but be sure that you put it!
No, I didn't fill it out. I finally got a NVC rep that reviewed my DS-261 over the phone, and I was finally able to pay the IV fee today. Don't go back into the form! You will have to wait even longer that way.
I could be wrong, but I think these are "false checklists". It probably means that they've reviewed and accepted your documents.
I hope you're right, my friend. I can't stop refreshing the NVC page looking for my triple N/A!

On April 10th, NVC sent me a checklist for 'Fee Payments', it's because i didn't paid the IV Fee, but now we already made it and
we hope to don't have to wait 60 days more. When we received the checklist, it was the day 27 of 60 of the total waiting.
-
I'm following along.... got the "give us money" checklist too... so I'm eager to see what happens in your cases...
Best wishes!!!
Well, we have to think that it's a checklist that don't requires 60 days of wait, I think that is a max. of 30 days. We'll stay in contact if some of us have
any news of the case. Right now i can't stop refreshing the NVC page seeing if my case changes to completed!
-
I dont know what id going on with the IV fees : / It's been 2 weeks since my agent form was reviewed, and they still havent generated IV fee... I think I noticed that is happening to other VJ members also...
I was on the same situation, i had to wait 30 days as much, and then call they saying to review my form on that call (thats what people from this
site recommend me to do) and after a few tries, they accept to do it and on the next day i get my iv fee activated. Don't worry and be patiente!
-
We still waiting for that case to be completed, hope to be soon, we can't wait longer!
-
I made the payment on April 14th and filled the DS260 yesterday, hope to get any news as soon as posible!
-
Well all that happening in your 60 day package review. So usually by the time your review is done the fee and DS-260 (not DS-230 that is dead) is compete and you are just waiting.
Check the DS-260 it should also be ready to submit pay and submit that and by tour 60 days or maybe sooner you should have case complete. I been hearing some are done by 45 days.
So in short 45 to 60 days is case complete if no issues.
It's been my mistake, it's the DS260!
So you are saying that i don't have to wait 60 days more, i just have to wait the days that remain on the 60 day waiting that i'm already having?
Actually, I started the 60 day count-down on March, 13th, tomorrow it's going to be the 30th day of 60, so i have to be patient and wait a little bit
more because i'm always done on this terrible waiting.
Thanks to all for your support and your kind messages.

Hello to all,
I'm writing this because last friday i received a checklist by email from NVC saying thatI have to pay the IV Fee that i haven't yet paid, (I will pay it tomorrow) andI'm just asking to all of you that you passed throught this, that if this checklist has goingto be 2 months more of waiting or, if i pay it tomorrow and in a few days I fill and sendthe DS-230, it's gonna turn in a CC early.In other words, dow much time do you think it's gonna take to get the case complete now?Thanks for the help and atention.David J. -
It sounds as though you have submitted the AOS and IV supporting documents already. The 60 day time frame is typically what you will hear from the phone representative in regards to those packets.
Call them. They will veryify who you are, and then they will usually give you a brief summary of what events have happened (" we received your files on date xx/xx/2015"). Once they finish they will ask what they can do for you, say this exactly:
"I was hoping that you would be able to review the DS 261 over the phone today."
This is a "soft" way of asking for something. You are not making a demand, yet you are gently reminding them that they can, if possible, review the DS 261 over the phone.
If they can, they typically will. If they can not, they will say something like "I am sorry the file is currently locked." If the file is locked, that usually means it is the process of adding information to the file (perhaps your AOS and IV packet information). Once that is done the file will unlock and the phone representative will be able to review the DS 261 over the phone.
I hope this helps.
Your phrase was perfect and they accept to review my form over the phone!!
So thank you so much for all your advices, now i have to wait for make the payment
and just wait for the Case Completed! THANKS!!

yes but it is the waiting time for the review of your documents that counts. The NVC states it takes 60 days from receiving the documents that is the scan date that is the important date. My was Feb 10th. Right now they are reviewing a lot of cases in about 40 days.
If you have not send in your Aos and IV packets and your AOS fee shows paid you can submit both packets, using the AOS document cover sheet. You will have time to pay the IV fee and fill out the DS260 while you are waiting for them to review your documents
Of course, actually it's what i've done with the documents, when we paid the AOS fee, on the next days we
sent both packets of AOS and IV, and the scan date it was on March 13th, (if i'm not misunderstanding, the scan
date is the date that the NVC received the documents, right?), so we hope that my case to be completed
in about 40 days and not 60 like they told us.
Actually we're on the day 14 of 60, it's too early for have any good news.
The only thing that we are waiting for now it's the DS260 to be activated for complete it and pay the last fee!
-
yes you can send both packets in, before you pay the IV fee and fill out the DS-26 form. You can use the AOS document cover sheet for both packet just print two of them from the payment portal. also include the NVC document check list. If you look at my signature or timeline you will see that is how I did it. My case was completed. I save a lot of time doing it this way
Wow, you've been so lucky, you paid your IV fee Bill on Feb, 6th and you get your CC on Feb, 20th!
Seeing this makes me be more relaxed, i hope that my case be just as fast as yours.

Any of you that changed the status from Completed to Incompleted, did you notice that your case restart the waiting?
I'm on the same problem, i entered to check my form and when i came back to the main page, it changed to Incomplete, when
i filled 4 months ago, i had to resend it and now it shows Completed again. Any to worry about, guys?
