And I am planning to visit them soon so while I am there what are the originals documents I can bring with me to US so that my parents dont have to send me later to file for them. I mean to say what are the originals documents needed to file for parents..

Thank you

Read the guides for petitioning for parents:

You need to file two petitions; one for mom and one for dad. The required evidence is different for each petition.

I did not send my mama's original documents to NVC, just photocopies and translations.

Did you read the guides? Most of the documents required will be from you. For your dad you'll also need a copy of their marriage certificate and copies of any divorce decrees from previous marriages. You always only send copies of documents. If they have a need to inspect the original documents then they'll ask you to submit them, but that's not common.

I sent email to NVCINQUIRY@state.gov simply asking to deliver all documents over email. My and mama's email addresses was provided. Next day I did receive generic replay to both mailboxes. After that all documents from NVC was coming to me and my mama simultaneously as PDF attachments.

sergeman , Thanks busddy for ur herlp , couple of question .

1. when my mom I130 will approve i can send the Email to NVC or do i have to wait for NVC to contact me, i can see that on 11/02/2011 NVC assigned u the case number and the same day u emailed them, how did u know they assigned the case number...in short when i need to email NVD for Email delivery request.

2. DS 3032 according to my knowledge has to fill up by petitioner (my mom) tht she will choose me as an agent, means she needs to sign the form too, so can i download one form and ask her to sign and send it to me so when NVC ask me i will send it to them (plss gide me)

3. The same thing with DS230, i see the form it is for the benefeciary so when i am going to recieve it , do my mom need to sign this..if yes i can ask my mom to sign and send it to me..(plss guide me)...

The instruction for the NVC satge state to send ORINIGALS as well as copies of beneficiary'a and peitioner's birth cert

i have read posts by members who got RFe because they did not include originals or only sent in copies certified by someone in the legal office.

five years ago I sent in my original birth certificate(for my I-140) and got it back at interview. this time around I also sent in originals of my mom's birth certificate and mine . got an email attachment from NVC stating the originals and copies have been forwarded to the consulate.

if some people escaped getting an RFE when they sent in copies of documents for which originals were instructed, that does not imply instructions should not be followed as each case is treated on individual basis.

1. You should call NVC and auto attendant will guide you through. You should send email delivery request as soon as you hear that case # assigned by NVC.
   
2. http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/James's_Shortcuts#Option_2:-_Choice_of_Agent_selection_via_E-mail . I had hard copy signed by my mother, but NVC did not ask for it. DS-3032 email was enough.
   
3. I don't know if your Consulate uses electronic DS-230, it is pilot program available only at selected Consulates in Canada, China, and Mexico. So you still need to send everything except DS-3032 as hard copies.

Well, I did not escape exactly. I called NVC and explained how i like and trust Russian post (sarcasm smiley here). Rep told me that my mother's original docs must be presented on final interview and I can send only photocopies and translations of her papers to NVC; however, I sent originals of my own Birth and Marriage certificates accompanied with photocopies and translations. I guess my case was flagged to go without original docs during this call.

I've dug this and other immigration forums and I learned that in most cases rep will say no to such request.

She needs a police clearance from wherever she stayed for 6 months.

She needs a police clearance from wherever she stayed for 6 months.

she is 60 yrs now, she changed like 9 different places (9 different adresses) but in same city, so one certificate is fine from a city or 9 certificates for each address.....
