If you check the guides, there is a list there that tells you exactly what you need to do after you receive your NOA2. Now that you have your NOA2, your case will be forwarded to NVC, hopefully quickly. I would call NVC every now and then to see if they have rec'd your case, you should also get a letter from NVC stating they have rec'd your case with a new case # on it. Once they are done processing your case it will then be forwared to the Consulate for further processing....but it is very important to check the guides, because the guides have a wealth of information concerning what documents the USC has to send the Beneficiary once NOA2 is received. As for the beneficiary, he or she should be looking into the police reports for each place he or she has lived for 6 months or more, and his or her country of nationality, also start looking into the medical. I would check and see if your consulate has a website, they may have some information regarding the process that could be helpful to you. Hope this helps you

First, congrats on your NOA2!!!

In addition to what Stacey gave you above (Excellent guide Stacey)
This is what available to you in the GUIDES section Kimi:
1. A copy of the entire I-129f package (that you made when you sent the petition in) and a copy of information that you sent back due to an RFE (if you received one).
2. Send all originals of the documentary proof that you submitted for the I-129F to your fiance(e) for their interview at the embassy.
3. Send an original letter affirming your desire to marry your fiance(e) and your continued support of the K-1 Visa. Sign and date the form. This will be similar to the letter you provided with the I-129F, but dated much closer to the interview (it will have most likely been several months since you submitted your I-129F).
4. I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is notarized (by a public notary), with all required supporting evidence. Some consulates may require a different form. Some require an I-864. If yours does, send that instead. You can call or email the consulate to check. Additionally, the consulate will notify your fiance(e) via mail correspondence which they prefer. Begin collecting the required information ahead of time, as it can often take several weeks to collect it all.
5. You will likely need at a minimum (for the above form) two to three of your most recent pay stubs and a signed letter from your employer listing you job title, start date, your salary, and the status (full-time) of your position. Begin collecting these asap after your NOA2 arrives. You will also probably want to include other evidence such as your banking information and other assets as required by the I-134/I-864. Specifically you will need at least 2 of the 4 options mentioned in Section II-Supporting Evidence of the I-134.
6. A copy of the NOA2 that you received in the mail.

Note: this is the GENERAL guides for generic case. HCMC is a bit more difficult with its requirement for Visa approval as you may find out by now from reading others' responses from VN. my thoughts to you,
1. Collect 3 years of ITR (income tax return) with complete W-2's (original and copied) for your Aff-Supp, 2. Collect phonebills or evidence that show you two are constantly communicate before and after your ENGAGEMENT (assumed you did get engaged). We may go into more details about this "Communication proof" later on if you have more question.
3. Collect pictures of you two together to show a continuous relationship (proof of your visits)
4. Continue writing hand-writen mails, holiday cards for each other and from families to each other (proof of family's involvement and approval of this future marriage and build a strong relationship foundation for your case)
5. Proof of Employment: paystubs, letter of employment from your employer (no need to get it just yet, just let your HR Dept know you will need one in the next few months when your fiance is ready for her interview date)
6. If you were previously married, need to show them you are no longer... I don't know what you have to prove that but Divorce decreed and childsupport payment records would be great!
7. Bank statements
8. Credit card statement where it shows you paid for your own tickets when travel to VN (or some kind of financial record showing you were the one who paid for the ticket)
9. Get her ready for the interview early. Search for "Interview Questions" from HCMC.
I can't think of anything else now, but if you have questions just shoot ok!
Keep this in mind: BIG PICTURE - You are collecting and preparing all available documents to prove your relationship is REAL and your fiance deserve her VISA to come here with you. Do not sidetrack or hang up on ONE or a few things I mention above which you may or may not have. HCMC does not ONLY look at or weight one evidence more than the others. They look at the whole "package" (you and her) and go by their experience and they are the one who make the final decision to approve or not. So, stay cool and stay focus... you are in a long haul.
Good luck,
Kimi

Thank you Stacy/Chuck and Kim, your input likes a checlist for us and almost things be done.

For PC (Police Certificate), if she lives in Saigon, she can go to "Sở Tư Pháp" to apply for one. They should know exactly what you need if you tell them it is for HCM consulate Visa. If not, your honey can check in with the local police in her town/village.
"Giấy Chứng Nhận Không Phạm Pháp" is what it calls.
Your case can be tracked here via www.uscis.gov website, sign up an account with the case #. They will email your the status of your case HERE in the US.
Your case number can be used to communicate with HCMC once your physical files are sent to VN from NVC.
Hope this helps!
