Moosker, did you speak to a customer service representative to hear that your DS-3032 / AOS Bill had been generated or did the automated system tell you?

Moosker, did you speak to a customer service representative to hear that your DS-3032 / AOS Bill had been generated or did the automated system tell you?

I think Moosker called to listen to automated system on Saturday to see if anything has changed and she found out they already generated DS-3032/AOS fee bill.

Hi everyone,

I just called NVC and listened to the AVR system and found out that my DS-3032 and IV bill was generated and mailed on Jan 16.

I wanted to know that if you only Email the DS-3032, do you get the acceptance reply through Email or by Mail?

and If you only Mail the DS-3032, how do they let the petitioner or beneficiary know that the DS-3032 was accepted?

Thank you in advance, and Good luck to all.

Bigblue.

Hey all!

I called Friday to ask about it, and the lady told me it had NOT been generated. Saturday I thought I'd give it a shot and listened to the AVR (it's like my daily routine!) and turns out it had been generated Friday! Emailed out the form yesterday, will try to mail it out as well today :)

Hey Bigblue,

Now that it's generated, it would be good to email AND mail the form out. That's what the Wiki guide for NVC recommends, I'm doing that as well! I believe you will get an acceptance via email, and then hopefully the AVR will be updated.

From what I've read if you let everything happen through snail-mail then it'll take months! As SOON as something is generated or accepted, boom, you go to the next step. That's what allows you to fly through the NVC process.

Good luck! :)

I recommend and say mail a hard copy of DS-3032 as well. Use express/overnight, more secure. The hard copy was accepted well before the email for our case. The email was processed for us when I was going to mail out the DS-230 and AOS.

Hello fellas, I am new to this awesome site. Just found this site yesterday. My case was recently forwarded to NVC. I just mailed out my DS3032 and already paid my AOS fee online and it shows paid. I mailed out the paid AOS receipt and DS3032 on friday. Do you think I should also send an email of the DS3032?

I have my AOS and DS230 ready. As my case already shows AOS paid, should I send out the AOS, or wait for them to generate an AOS?

Thanks for help guys.
