I paid Affidavit of Support Processing Fee and Immigrant Visa Processing Fee at the end of July but have yet received any package for I-864 or DS-260. I wrote an e-mail to NVC and got a response saying that I can proceed with filling out and submitting the forms. Is this correct? Any suggestion? Thank you!

It is so unfortunate that you lost valuable time. You should have posted this long time ago or checked at the Wiki for NVC process.

Anyhow, login to the payment website and you will see that the payment status have been changed yo PAID. Print the Cover Sheet with Bar Code for both AOS and IV and use those to send your AOS and IV packets. See the link for infomation on the required documents - check sub-links I-864, I-864 cover letter, DS-230 & DS-230 cover letter.

Another question. On the cover sheet, it says that the files are to be sent to NVC in New Hampshire. However, in the instructions to I-864EZ, it says that the documents should be filed with Consulate or Immigration Officer (http://goo.gl/6Lvfr). My beneficiary's interview is to be done overseas. Where should I file the AOS? Is it the same with DS-230? Many thanks!
