CR-1/IR-1 Case at NVC - US Citizen Sponsoring a Spouse
My case is currently at NVC waiting for an interview date. We became documentarily qualified on 2/22/23. My PD is 12/6/21. My spouse is in India. Raised an inquiry with NVC & below is their response. Thought to share it. Anyone else is also waiting on NVC or have experience they'd like to share? #NVC #CR-1 #IR-1 #CR1/IR1 #Mumbai This case is documentarily complete, which means the NVC has all the documents we requested. Your application is waiting for an interview appointment, where a consular officer will adjudicate it. The U.S. Embassy or Consulate provides the National Visa Center (NVC) with a list of available appointment dates and times. We will schedule your case for an interview appointment when an appointment date is available. We schedule appointments on a first in, first out basis. After we schedule your appointment, we will forward your case to the U.S. Embassy or Consulate General in MUMBAI (BOMBAY) We cannot predict how long it will take to schedule your appointment, but we will notify the applicant, the petitioner, and your attorney (if applicable) when an appointment is scheduled. Your case will stay at NVC until that time.

NVC payment
I made AOS and IV payments in late May and my case status changed to Paid after 3 days. After a week, I received an email from NVC stating that my payment was rejected. I contacted pay.gov, who confirmed my payment went through and sent me payment receipts showing both payments were settled. I forwarded the payment receipts together with the bank statement to NVC. However, I still got the same standard reply "Thank you for your inquiry. Duplicate and rejected fee payments should be resolved by pay.gov within 30 days. If it has been more than 30 days and your bank account has not been credited for your duplicate or rejected payment, please contact pay.gov directly. If your fee payment status shows "rejected" in the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC), you will need to log back into CEAC to repay your fees." Even though I tried to pay again on the CEAC website, an error message pops up "there are one or more errors with your submission. please correct the areas indicated below. once completed, click the make payment button to continue: an error occurred while submitting your payment. please try again later." I am so frustrated and don't know what I could do. Would anyone please advise please. Thanks. #NVC #rejected payment

HELP ! "I submitted an expedite request to the NVC via email!"
I just submitted an expedite request trough email to the NVCExpedite@state.gov it should be highlighted that I submitted (I130 petition for alien relative ) on April 6 2023 because I find myself 26 weeks pregnant and Im alone with a lot of stress I have letters from my doctor and counselor so I need my husband here as soon as possible The thing is, when I sent the email requesting expedited processing to the NVC they sent me an email saying this,,, NVC Expedite To: Lejla D> o Whom it Concerns: Thank you for your inquiry. Our records do not show that we received your petition. It can take up to six weeks for an approved petition from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) to arrive at the National Visa Center (NVC). Once we receive it, we will enter your petition into the U.S. Department of State's database systems.

If anyone know why the NVC email said that, please let me know in the comment THANK YOU IN ADVANCE . !! #expediterequest #nvc #130

My Projection; What is your thought
This is my analysis and View:- Globally, IV applicants waiting for interview dates by April 30th, 2023 is 396,877 (source : https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/visas-backlog.html ) DQed IV applicants scheduled for May, 2023 interview equals 41,904 Eligible Number after May interview appointments equals 354,973 Going by this and assuming at least 41,904 applicants monthly - it means it will take 354973 divided by 41, 904 to know the number of months required to clear even the last DQed after May appointments schedule which is circa 8.5 months if you do the maths Meaning that even the last person DQed in 30th April’23 will be scheduled for interviewed after 8.5 months (and that is Jan’2024) So those DQed Jan 2023 should expect interview schedule by September, 2023 going by this global average. Nigeria case seem to match this average because In Jan 2023 (this year) they were handling Sept/Oct 2021 and by this April, they were already dealing with April as well. Meaning that they covered some 6 months in less than 4 months. Which equals those DQed this April will be scheduled in about 8 months instead of 12 months. Countries with less backlogs may happen earlier though. #Lagos #CR1 #IR1 #NVC

Request an expedite and they suggest for alternative visas that may be available
Hi everyone, In my request for an expedite, I strongly believe that my case deserves it, but NVC responded by sending me this email: "As there is no visa number currently available, we are unable to expedite the processing of this case. You may wish to contact the U.S. Embassy/Consulate General in Post or the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) regarding alternative visas that may be available. Please visit https://www.usembassy.gov to find the contact information for the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate General. The individual Embassy or Consulate General's website includes contact information for visa-related inquiries". Do you have any experience with this? Which alternative visa can I use for my case that is in the process of being processed for immigration? #NVC #expedite #f2b #visa #Alternative
