Tonyt,

I'm assuming you are refering to the Choice of Agent form that you need to fill out af part of the CR1/IR1 visa is that correct?

If it is, than what the choice of agent is asking the beneficary to do is nominate someone who will act on the beneficary's behalf during the processing of your application at the NVC. The choice of agent can be the beneficary or the petitioner. Issentially who ever you assign as the choice of agent will get corrospendence from the NVC in terms of paying the Immigration Visa bill ($380) and then sending the DS230 application form itself.

I would highly recommend that the Choice of Agent be the petitioner who is residing in the states.. it'll save a lot of time since the NVC will be sending mail within the USA rather than to the UK.

Check out Jame's shortcuts that are pinned at the top of the NVC forum for more information.

The shortcuts apply only to the I130.

K1's generally pass through the NVC very very quickly, so there is no need to do anything to speed it up.

You can call the NVC (the number is in the pinned "NVC Timesavers" thread at the top of this forum). They will be able to tell you if your I129F has arrived and when it leaves for the appropriate embassy. Please note - you will have to try to speak to an operator because I129F's are not dealt with in the automated voice system. Be prepared for a long hold time, I've heard that calling at 11:30 pm eastern works best, but after 2 days of calling I got through around 2pm eastern.

Congrats on the approval smile.gif
