NVC paperwork after I130 paperwork question

[draga 14]

We have been accepted by the NVC and are going to start compiling the paperwork to send in. My question is one that has likely been answered, but I wasn't able to find the answer after searching for a bit. Probably the keywords are too simple.

Anyway. When we sent our I130 papers we sent a stack of papers that were easily an inch thick in the end. It included copies of basically every single thing the NVC is now asking for. Am I going to have to reprint and resend the exact same thing to them? All I have right now is a checklist from them, I guess.

I guess I assumed when they sent our case to the NVC, all our papers would go with it and we wouldn't need to do yet another certified copy of our birth certificates, marriage certificate, passport photos, etc... you know, the stuff that costs money to get. Plus just the waste of paper and ink to reprint the dozens of pages of "proof" and such.

So am I wrong here, or should I start reprinting and collecting everything I already sent in? Or, do they have it and will send me a different checklist that is less generic once they've looked through it all?

i Must Ask !

Did you send originals? For USCIS, photocopies only...

I sent originals of a few things. I'll have to look through my copies to see which those were. It seemed like in the tutorial some things needed to be original and some just copies. Though technically the "originals" are just "certified copies" that you buy from the government.

i cannot think of any original document needed, or even a certified copy needed,

per the instructions.

I never study any video tutorial, sorry.

Must have just read it wrong then. So I will indeed need to send the same large package of papers to the NVC. I was hoping there was paperwork reduction and they just forwarded the package on with the case.

if yes, and you have 'view signatures' enabled in yer user profile -

HEY ! Click the link below - it's the BIBLE for NVC Doc Intake, and it's ALWAYS CURRENT !

Right, I read all of that. Though this is all so much information, I may not be understanding correctly.

Currently I am waiting to be able to pay my AOS fee.

hmmm. civil docs, now photocopy accepted.

But certified copies or originals are needed for interview. Anything you sent to the USCIS that was an original or certified copy, you will need to obtain again.

So I will need 2 more copies? One for the NVC package and one for the interview?

Just the interview, the NVC only requires photocopies.

OK thanks.
