I-130 Progress list

[sachinky 464]

Pay attention, non-EP NVC noobs. Here's Christeen's time tested formula to get you through NVC in one piece alive:

Petitioner: Get NVC # + give operator your email IDs + receive AOS fee bill + pay 70$ online + wait to show paid + print cover sheet + send I-864 AOS with all documents and case # written on each page.

Beneficiary: Get NVC# + receive DS3032 + send DS3032+ DS3032 accepted + IV fee bill available to be paid + pay & wait to show paid + print IV cover sheet + mail DS230 package with all original/certified documents

= wait for case complete + wait for interview to be scheduled.

Suggestions:

1) Have the beneficiary mail SIGNED extra DS230s to you so that you have them handy in case something goes wrong. Or you get hit by a dreaded RFE.

2) If you just received your NOA2, THIS is the time to get your tax stuff and police certificates sorted out. Don't waste time on this.

3) Double check the PCC requirements in the regional forums as they are country specific.

Currently the # of business days NVC is taking:

3-4 days for NVC to receive your case and assign a case #.

3-4 days to receive emailed links after case # has been assigned and email addresses been given to NVC operator.

1-2 days for the AOS bill to show as PAID.

1-3 days for DS3032 to be accepted.

1-3 days for IV bill to be PAID.

8-11 days for case complete after all your documents have been sent in.

Folks--please make sure your official VJ timelines are up to date. Remember this is our only source of predictions. Thankyou!

Should be soon because mine has already been completed on 03/13. I'm now a waiting for the interview e-mail but I'll probably have to reschedule since my parents are here on a valid tourist visa. Unless they can do the interview here? Do you know?

You should send an email to NVC regarding this matter, informing them of your parents' intention to adjust status in the US. I believe that as long as the packet has not yet been sent to the US Embassy abroad, your parents can adjust status here. You have to inform NVC so they will not send the packet abroad but to the local service center where your parents reside now (presumably your address). I believe they can also do their medical here but I heard that the total medical expenses is $450, while it is only $213 abroad. Bottom line, adjustment of status from tourist to green card holder is possible. Just inform NVC. I thought about having my mom do this before since she has a visitor's visa valid until next year. However, she has not resigned from her job yet and timing is everything.

Good luck to you and your parents!

Hi, I included both my mom's NBI clearance and police clearance when I sent the DS-230. Everything went well and never got an RFE.

Hi comembot0120,

Just want to ask if you have to include your parent's NBI clearance with all the documents that you have to send in NVC? I want to know because it says on the website you only need police clearance. Thanks.

Hi, I just received e-mail from NVC for my mom DS-3032 and AOS fee bill. Here are my questions:

1. If I decided to e-mail back the completed DS-3032 form do I receive confirmation from NVC that they accepted it?

2. What is AVR means? Sorry for being ignorant

Once your AOS payment status online changes to PAID you will be able to download & print the coversheet to go along with your I-864...the address to send it to will be on there but just in case here it is...
