Apparently we have 2 options for turning in the I-864. Should I mail them to the NVC, or give them to my husband for when he has his interview at which point he will turn them in? Does it really matter or can doing one make a difference?

Thanks!!!

What did the packet 3 instructions say?

How did you get an option on where to turn in the I-864?

DCF cases do not (to my knowledge) use the NVC at all---that's a main part of the point of filing overseas.

I sent the financial document to Claudeth for the interview.

Which was not a DCF, Immigrant Visa or I-864, right?

Sorry so long to write back - my computer fried last week

We were told by the embassy that we could either send the I864 to the NVC or that my husband could turn it in at the interview..... However, we have been told numerous things by the embassy in Guayaquil and then the opposite from the embassy in Quito - so I never know.
I have been planning for my husband to turn everything in at his interview, but I just wasnt sure if it would be better to turn it in to the NVC or not.
Have you never heard of having this option before? Could be that the person we spoke to gave us the wrong information?
I think to be on the safe side I will have my husband turn it in.
Thanks!

good plan NVC has not been dealing with your case as you are filing directly with the embassy...unlike those doing CR-1 who have to go through NVC. Ultimately its the same visa, just a different process.
