For anyone who is interested, or needs to while away the time while waiting for your sign in failure - a while back I found the Standard Operating Procedures for NVC. This should answer some questions - like for instance, I believe, I read on here - that they have to accept an email in lieu of the DS3032. It also stresses that time is of the essence. If you're interested - here is a link to their Standard Operating Procedures:

After going over it again, it isn't the DS3032 that they have to accept via email - it's actually the DS2001 - the notification of applicant readiness - they will accept any form of communication for that.

Oh no! I was a day late in providing my email ids to NVC. The operator said that they've already sent out the DS3032 form as hardcopy. I asked him if I can still send in an email. He said "Yes, but you have to fill that form and scan it, and send that".

Does that sounds right? Anyone face that situation? Should I try and send the email version from the VJ wiki?

what you get in the mail is probably exactly the same as what they send you in an email.

But you could just email them using VJ wiki template, and send a hard copy of the document also.

the worst that could happen is you have send it in again when you get the mail one.
