I am starting a new thread to track cases from NVC - embassy to GC.
The best news for RN in China, Phillippines and India has been great and informative thread, but I think it is more appropriate and convenient if we start a new thread.
Also with the rapid scheduling of interviews for most of us, I am looking beyond the CP and anticipating the GC!
The August interview schedules are out already in India, and recently in the Philippines and hopefully in China.
Here is my case details
Category : EX Schedule A
USCIS receipt : April 2004
Processing Center : Vermont
I-140 approved : October 2004
NVC case number : MNL2004813XXX
NVC forwarded packet 3 : April 5, 2005
Packet 3 sent back to NVC : May 3, 2005
NVC case completed : May 16, 2005
Consular Interview : August 29, 2005
Visa received : ???
Date of entry in the US :???
GC receive : ????
I hope you can also post here your details interview experience.
hi, gracie08! thank you!! i called nvc twice today..and the first representative told me my ds230 forms was sent to my lawyer..but the second representative said i should wait 10-15 days because they are updating the system since the visa has become current.
i was comtemplating on getting my police clearances and my other certificates in case they needed it again. such a hassle really.
hi leis23!
can you please clarify the phrase "since the visa has become current". my heart skipped a beat when i read this. did the operator really say it? now i'm really looking forward to the next visa bulletin! :roll
yes. i believe both representatives said that to me. my visa is current! :-) i emailed NVC a few mins ago. let's wait what their response will be. at first, i thought my documents expired or something..so, i had to re-send all my documents again. but according to gracie08, it seems like they are having problems with their voice automated response system. i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Congratulations are in order then? When is the PD date, the I-140 RECEIPT notice or is it the I-140 approval? Maybe it is time for me to give NVC a call....I don't think I can sleep well tonight unless I do so...:monkeydance:
ahhmm..i think it's still premature. i'll be really happy and excited when i have my passport with a visa stamped in it on my hands. :-) hehehe my PD or I-140 receipt notice is Dec 8, 2005.

does the DS230 form expire? do i have to re-send another DS-230 form again if i passed it last Sept 2006? My case has been completed according to the automated voice response system of NVC last year.

Hi Leis23! what i know is, you are required to submit another DS230 form at the time of interview for any updates in your personal information..other than that, if your case is already completed, there's no need to submit another copy. Just like the NVC representative said, our petition are now eligible for further processing so lets just wait for 10-15 working days for our case to be updated. Don't bother sending another DS230 form because as you said your case was already completed. Good luck to all of us! :)

please inform us what ever info you will receive from nvc regarding your case.if they state that your visa is current although your pd is after june 2005 this only mean that they are moving the vb to a date that includes yours. if your pd is 12/2005 the next vb may show a later date than that. hope that this is true, my pd is march 2006 and hoping that vb will move forward. :monkeydance:
