My wife and I are just beginning the NVC stage of this journey. NVC has our case from USCIS, but have not assigned case number yet. That said, as we prepare for the flurry of documents ahead...

IV Package (DS-230) question: Who is supposed to mail this to the NVC? Petitioner or Beneficiary? I assumed that my wife (beneficiary) would mail all her documents from Bucharest, but since I will be Choice of Agent, should she mail all the required documents for the IV package to me now?

My husband is the beneficiary but he sent all the documents to me and i put them together and overnighted the AOS package and the ds230 at teh same time so that it would be altogether when arriving and I was the choice of agent.

Thanks so much. I know my wife would feel much more comfortable if she send this to me to handle.
