Subject: National Visa Center: TAI2022XXXXX
The National Visa Center (NVC) received all the requested documentation for
this immigrant visa case.  The applicant is now in the queue awaiting an
interview appointment overseas, where a consular officer will adjudicate the
applicant’s visa application.
The U.S. Embassy tells us what dates they are holding interviews, and NVC
fills these appointments as they become documentarily qualified.  However,
before applicants in a numerically limited (preference) visa category can
receive an appointment, their priority date must also be current.  This can
delay receipt of an appointment.

2022 Oct 2: second expedite request
2022 Oct 4: "We previously sent your request to the U.S. Embassy or
Consulate in TAIWAN. However, they cannot expedite this case."

2022 Oct 26 (morning): CEAC system:  "In Transit"
Your case is in transit to the Consular Section. Your interview date was
provided to you by the National Visa Center.
"YOUR CASE IS CURRENTLY AT: TAIPEI

2022 Oct 26 (evening): interview email with interview date at AIT
(weird, haven't seen "Document Qualified notice")

They put me into administrative processing and asked for more documents.
Submission via email only.

The notice from AIT：

Your visa application has been denied under Section 221(g) of the United
States Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) due to required additional
administrative processing.

So, my major is chemical engineering. It is very sensitive to naitonal security.
They usualy do adminidtrative processing on like F1 visa
or any other type of visa.
We, chemical engineering student, are familiar with AP...

I emailed the consulate for follow up once every two weeks and also use the app.

Next day, they see it is issued. Is it possible they would process
those inquiries firstly?

有幾個地方可以做得更好

一拿到繳費通知 Sept 1 我就應該馬上去繳費 傻傻等公司弄流程
加上後來遇到繳費網站故障 這就拖了我19天

另外不知道為什麼中間被加速了 之前看審核文件至少要兩個月三個月

但我很快就被審查完畢 立刻也被安排面試時間 而沒有document qualified的通知


此外有一個特別的點 CEAC網站也就是填寫DS260有要求繳交civil documents

CEAC內的地址跟 一般公眾可以查到的地址不一樣

當時我猶豫寄哪個 公司律師要我直接寄CEAC上面的地址

不知道是不是這個地址的收件量比較少 然後就比較快(?) (這無法查證 一切運氣)

--
請注意風險!
CEAC網頁上當時的地址,請注意每個人CEAC地址可能不相同.(這個無法驗證...)
請注意使用此地址的風險,
請以自己CEAC的網頁上地址為主.
請審慎評估地址風險.
請注意Attn的部分,每個人的case都不一樣,可能有不同的代碼

""
1. If your case is NOT processing electronically, please submit your
documents to:

National Visa Center
Attn: CMR/DR
31 Rochester Ave. Suite 100
Portsmouth, NH 03801-2914

不然以我的case應該要等兩個月文件審查 也就是Nov 19才會有通知

這是NVC上面公告的timeline


另外建議大家一回台灣就先去台安醫院(免預約)體檢 否則萬一確診之後還必須隔離幾天

才能出門體檢

Q: IVP的部分是自己辦嗎?
A:公司律師有幫忙看DS260的表單 我先填寫完後公司看
過程是自己處理細節沒有錯

Q: VC說
please contact NVC to remove us as the
attorney-of-record for your IV application and add yourself as the agent

A: 我當時沒有這個流程 所以不清楚

Q: 當時寄文件到NVC時,全部影本嗎?

A: 印象中應該是全部影本,到AIT的時候才會請申請者出示正本核對他們手上的影本

Q: cover sheet是不是如文中的?

A: 是的,但每年度的表格或許有變更,請參酌最新的表格及規定.
