US citizen filed I-130 for wife in India April 2010

Nvc

called NVC yesterday and today again!! They did have a number assigned to my case yesterday, and I had the email added to my account yesterday. I called today and mentioned tht few people who received their USCIS approval jst 2 dys before me had received their choice of agent form, and I'm still waiting.. the response is "you have to wait for another 4-6 weeks..." anwys, jst wanted to keep u guys posted of this..and seriously guys, once we'r done with this process I'm gonna call NVC and USCIS jst to get my frustration out
 
What can I say Thakdha, it's one wait after another... so frustrating. sigh. :(

And I guess I never updated you guys on my status - My case with the Grace of God got approved on the 8th of October (Friday) :) We got informed through an e-mail that was sent to my husband by USCIS.
Now, we're on the waiting list for the Approval Letter by post as well like most of us here!! REALLY hope all goes well and we can all be with our respective spouses soooooooon!
 
Okey @ Thakhda...Dude..i understand ur frustration but do not worry about (4-6 period) cuz no matter when u call em..thz dere fixed dialogue for everything. I does not take 4-6 weeks. You should receive email from them within dis week or latest monday bout ds-3032 and affidavit of support.
 
And for Hypoesse...Follow this:
First thing to do as soon as the case number is assigned...call em n update them with ur email id and let em knw u wnna get everything done thru emails. Then dey'l send u de ds3032 (choice of agent) and --i864 invoice thru email. As soon as you receive ds3032..tell ur spouse to fill it out n scan it and send it in as attachment thru email. Also, pay the Free for Affidavit of Support. It takes bout 3-4 business days to clear the payment. As soon as payment clears..it will show as paid and that's when you print the cover letter and send it in with urI-834 package.
Required documents from the petitioner for I-864 Affidavit of Support Package

1. Last 3 years IRS Tax Transcripts (otherwise, last 3 years 1040 and W-2/1099)
2. Original Employment Letter
3. All of the above from any joint sponsors
Read the Guidelines of I-864 to make sure you have enough income.

Guys, are any of you from Pakistan? Need help with my civil documents here... Want to get done before time for us to submit them comes.

I will need to send my spouse the following documents as required by NVC: Original/Certified Birth certificate, Original/Certified Marriage Certificate, Photocopy of biographic page from Passport, and Police Certificate.

I am extremely confused as to what I can do about this?? I have the originals for each lying at home with me right now... There isn;t even an issue with the transaltions bit. HOWEVER, I don't want to send my originals to my spouse to dispatch to the NVC.
SO, WHAT EXACTLY is a "certified copy"?
- Like they're asking for a certified copy of my marriage certificate - Will getting a photocopy of my nikkah nama along with attestation from Notary Club (in Gizri, Karachi) do??
Am i doing it right? PLEASE ADVISE! :s
 
To: Noorilove.
Don't you worry because i think your case should be approved within couple of days, INSHALLAH everything will b fine. i have seen 1 of the case approved after 6 month and few days. So, don't worry, may b u get approved this coming MONDAY INSHALLAH. PRAY FOR ME TOO. my case is going to be now 5 month on 19th October and haven't met my wife for more than 1year and 2months.
 
guys, nothing frm NVC yet!! it's been 3 weeks since the petition was approved frm CIS and no answer frm NVC. Whoever said it takes 6-8 months for CR1/IR1 was definitely wrong cuz it's been almost 7 mnths for most of us, and we're all still hanging somewhere or the other..
 
@ Thakdha, don't worry friend, it takes complete 8 months for everything to be completed. Good Luck
 
Thnx Syed! I received an email last night frm NVC. Paid the $88 fee for AOS, sending the hard copy of S 3032 today.

Jazzy, it was exactly 15 business days since the CIS approval for me.

Noorilove, what's the update on ur case? If you still haven't heard anything back frm CIS, you should make an apt at a local CIS center to find out what's going on? Here is a link to find the closest center to you.

as far as I know, No. I had them email me the receipt for $88 payment. Cover sheet with a barcode is available after the payment clears I think...

"If your petitioner pays the Affidavit of Support fee online, your petitioner will gain access to the Affidavit of Support Document Cover Sheet. The Document Cover Sheet will provide access to the Affidavit of Support Instructions." found at this link: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3178.html#fee

Guys..For only DS3032...you don't hve to send the hard copy. You can email the ds3032. Scan and send the ds3032 form.
