NVC Process Timeline
So I thought I share maybe someone will benefit from the information. Nov 24 2023 - received NVC Welcome Letter Nov 24 2023 - Paid all required fees Nov 28 2023 - Access on the CEAC portal was active. So I uploaded the Financial Documents which to my understanding are 1. I-864 signed form 2. Recent tax transcript - 2022 3. Under Additional Documents I added 3.1 Emploment Letter 3.2 Recent W2 form - 2022 3.3 4 recent Paystubs 3.4 Naturalization Certificate Nov 28 2023 - Completed and submitted DS-260 visa application Nov 28 2023 - Uploaded Civil Doucments which are again to my understanding 1. Beneficiary Passport Copy 2. Beneficiary Passport Photo 3. Beneficiary Birth Certificate with translation 4. Beneficiary Police Certificate with translation 5. Marriage Certificate with translation 6. Petitioner (Me) Divorce Decree 7. Petitioner Passport Copy 8. Petitioner Naturalization Certificate 9. Petitioner Birth Certificate with translation So hope I did it correctly and did not miss any documents. All I can do now is wait to see what comes next. Update: Dec 6 2023 - I received an email from NVC to login into the CEAC portal. - All documents have "Accepted" status - In the inbox had Case FE Review Note to submit the divorce decree of my first marriage which I did right away. Update: Dec 13 2023 - I received an email from NVC to login to the CEAC portal. - Uploaded missed document had "Accepted" status - In the inbox had Documentarily Qualified message. So NVC is done Update: Dec 26 2023 - I received an email from NVC - Interview scheduled for Feb 21 2024 for the IR1 Visa at the US Embassy in Beirut Hope this timeline helps others Good luck to everyone going through this

um chNov 29, 2023
@R B oh I thought they would want to see pictures. but I just saw your case is different. usually for i485 you should submit pictures of the couple together and with family/friends
Mr MCCNov 29, 2023
what about proof of bona-fide marriage. I can see u submitted no evidence
A
A NNov 29, 2023
@Martins Chima The proof of bona-fide marriage is required during the interview. Its not required by NVC. The only thing matters is that you submit the marriage certificate for them to view and verify the legitimacy of the marriage.. @R B You are going to get DQ in a week I suppose.. They are pretty fast these days with the applications if they find everything submitted is according to the standard
Mr MCCNov 29, 2023
@Ameesha Nand ok. just that for my country is advisable to upload both your evidence together to avoid hard interview
R
R B Nov 29, 2023
@Martins Chima, Ameesha is correct I submitted it to USCIS as part of the I-130 and my wife will take the proof to the interview when it happens. The NVC doesn't require it. @Ameesha Nand I like that hope you are right. One week sounds great
sally minesNov 29, 2023
same here, we submitted all thĂ© financial and civil documents last week waiting for response. fingers crossed đŸ€ž InnshaAllah

R B Dec 4, 2023
@sally mines did you get DQ'd as you applied the week before me.
sally minesDec 4, 2023
@R B we received an email on the 1st of December requesting me to login and check the message from NVC and when we checked everything all documents were approved and they requested for me to resend my passport biometric page because it wasn’t clearly scanned
R
R B Dec 4, 2023
@sally mines thank you for sharing, so your NVC after you provided all documents took a week to get the email. What US Embassy you will be interviewing at

R B Dec 6, 2023
@H 11 or anyone reading this did you get from NVC the "Case FE Review Note" though everything that was uploaded was Accepted. How much did it delay after you uploaded the document requested. And is that usually it or they can review more and ask for other things
H
H 11Dec 6, 2023
