Re: Official I-601A Thread

We haven’t heard from the NVC in a little over a month. I sent an email a few days ago. How quickly do they respond? Also, when do we file I-485 after the 601A?

The shutdown might have affected their response times. BTW you're not filing I-485 because that's AOS form. I don't remember the forms we filed now but I think the
DS-260 is one of them. Once NVC responds you'll be able to file that then they will get you an appointment date with your "home" consular office.

They're sometimes very quick and sometimes very slow, but I believe you're supposed to wait 8 weeks before you contact them.

Since you're going through consular proceedings, you will not be filing an I-485. Instead, once your 601a has been approved, the NVC will ask you to submit your DS-260 application (online).

See below:

You're currently at the "Begin National Visa Center (NVC) Processing" step of the visa process.

So, the NVC finally gave us a case number. Do I file the 601A simultaneously when I pay for the fees and such to the NVC?

You have to pay the fee for DS-260 before you file I-601A.

Last updated date on my case status changed, so I guess things are getting pretty serious.

You have a year if they don’t hear anything. Chill.

When you file that 601a, USCIS notifies NVC of waiver filing.

Do it within a year and you don’t have to do anything for now with NVC.

Just pay visa fees when filing waiver.
