We are in Salvador, Brazil reporting our childs birth abroad for US Citizenship during this whole process..We asked about DCF and we´re told that DCF will be no longer, everything will be done through the internet and the States...I´ve emailed the Consulate in Rio and Uruguay, Montevideo but they did not answer my question on this matter...Has anyone else heard about this or read anything about when exactly DCF is coming to an end....The Consulate agent told me in August, but still haven´t found anything relating to this on the internet or here at visa journey.....

Starting August 15th, Embassies and Consulates will no longer accept I-130 petitions. If there is a USCIS field office in a country, the form can be filed there, otherwise, it will have to be sent to the Chicago lockbox.
