All, I have a question, I paid the IV fee online and its paid for now! I have the option to generate the Coversheet right on the page. Do I send the DS-230 now or wait for the appropriate NVC automated message to send the DS-230 forms? Thanks.

You may want to read James Short cuts here for guidance: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Jame%27s_Shortcut

Also you are not doing K-3, so profile should say "filed for: CR-1/IR-1" http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...rCP&CODE=01

Yes Chittu and Piya, you can mail IV package with online barcode coversheet, DS-230 and all other documents

Your timeline in NVC is really good and fast. I am following your path

I think NVC is a cake walk in 1.5 months time because of the online payment system I am taking 2 weeks vacation to India starting from May 15th. So I believe, I would be able to mail DS-230 and all docs before that, based on your timeline

Good luck Chittu and Piya and hopefully, your beneficiary and mine would be in July 2008 Chennai U.S consulate list. They publish the interview list on every 15th of the month for the next month's interview. So, watch out on June 15th for July list.

Fire, your NVC timeline is also similar to ours, wow, 3 Chennai NVC filers

hey dont forget me LOTO!!! even my husband wil be going thru CHENNAII hopefuly with yalls spouse too..

Yeah I started off doing K3 and then was switched to the CR1 route. Well I prefer this much better anyways!



yes I think so also...I am glad that the State Department is more competent than the USCIS. Also State department is more technologically advanced!!!

Lotofpatience, I generated my I-864 cover sheet online after the PAID status and it went through my bank already, But I checked the phone system just now and it still hasn't changed, can I send my I-864 package today or not? I am confused about that part because the phone system hasn't chagned... I dont want my I-864 to be rejected because I send it in too soon, and since the phone system doesn't say that the I-864 was generated.

Nita

Sorry Hyd to miss you out

Yes, now we 4 are there at the same time in Chennai U.S consulate:
1) Chittu and Piya
2) Fire
3) Hyd
4) Your loto

NVC is more technologically advanced than USCIS Must have been outsourced

Yes Nita, you can mail it today. Phone system is NOT TECHNOLOGICALLY advanced. There is a delay of 1 to 2 days

You are all set to mail AOS, my dear

What is the status of your K3. Mine was sent to the consulate on April 23. I am hoping to convert the K3 interview to CR1 interview if CR1 gets closed at NVC soon enough.

Fire, our I-129F is still pending. That's good one way

You mean, your I-129F approved and already at Chennai. That's great ! I bet CR1 would be the best option for you right now since NVC will close your case in a month or so. But it is up to you

Did you write a letter to U.S Consulate officer at Chennai to hold K-3 interview ???

Not yet. I thought we'll do that after we get an interview date. I paid the AOS bill yesterday and the status shows paid. Do you know how long before the IV bill will be available online?

Did they accept your DS-3032 ? If yes, IV Fee bill should be generated in around a week after DS-3032 acceptance, based on other timelines.

AOS online barcode cover sheet can be printed out now and you can mail AOS package to NVC right now, though it is a separate track

Hey Guys,

Wish you all the best. Actually I needed your guidance as I just checked my NVC message and it says that the "...NVC has received the DS3032, Choice of Agent and Address form on______. and will send further instructions within the next few weeks..."

Please advise what should I do now. Should I send the I-864 documents now. Also, how to pay the IV bill and when to pay.

I would be grateful for your help. Thank You

Also Can you guys tell me whats a AOS package, meaning what is the IV package as LOTOFPATIENCE meant. and how can i pay the online IV bill without the ITN number. I asked the operator but they said to wait till you get the bill.

Hi,

Yes you can go ahead print the cover sheet online and send in the documentation for DS-230. You do not have to wait for the message to change.

Hey another Chennai guy ! Scatluri, your timeline is pretty impressive Good luck to your upcoming interview soon
