Hello There,

I'm new here so please be patient with me. I filed petetion to bring my 18 year old step daughter here to the u.s. from the philippines. The petition was approved. I got information from NVC stating her case number. She emailed request to NVC to have me, the petitioner become her agent. I recieved and paid both IV bill and downloaded paid receipt; and I paid the Affidavit of support bill, and downloaded a copy of that paid receipt also. This was back in November 2010 and December 2010. Nothing since then from NVC.

Its been since early december 2010 and I havent heard anything. Am I supposed to wait to hear from NVC? Or Should I just go ahead and process the Affidavit or Support and send it in to NVC (using her NVC case number), and also process and send in her DS-230. I havent heard anything and dont know if i should just be waiting or taking action. Thanks for any help or advise you might have.

You were suppose to go back to the website where you paid the fees to download the forms, barcoded cover pages, and for further instructions.

Read the AOS and IV fee letter that you received carefully.

If you filed a I-130 petition to your step daughter by December 2010,I presume that its too early to find an answer right at this moment.Some cases needs an initial review before they can make a final decisions on the case you filed.It may require a valid documents like naturalization certificate,birth certificate,etc and proper forms from USCIS like I-130/I-485,I-765,G-325,etc.Now if you filed these properly to the USCIS or Consular office it may take time to wait from the long line for the process.Some cases needs to also wait for the priority dates before you can file an AOS.

Thanks! That was my problem. I had an old NVC Process Flowchart, and I was waiting for the I-864 and DS-230 packages to be generated (which apparently they never would have been). I went back to the NVC site where i paid my fees and downloaded the Cover Pages. I will try to follow directions next time. Thanks!

Thanks. I havent filed the Adjustment of status or the DS-230 yet. I will in the next week. Thanks again.

Hi Philippine Bill,

If you paid the fees already and you have the barcoded receipt you can go ahead and send them the I-864 and DS-230 (with supporting documents) to NVC, there is a link there that you need to follow, you don't wait for them to tell you what to do, Good luck with the rest of the process.

Thanks, I am in the process of doing that now.
