Hi all,

I’m in the midst of my CR-1 visa application for my wife (currently living in London while I live in the US). I’m just a little confused about what’s happening now and how I can make the process go as fast as possible.

Back in December, I had the good news that my application was passed to the NVC in NH. I paid the appropriate filing fee to kick-start the process, and my wife eventually received a “Choice of Address and Agent” form which we are about to send off (she got this in London). I presume my wife only receives the packet of other forms once this “Choice of Address and Agent” form has been completed and sent back?

I’m also not completely sure if the Affidavit of Support form gets sent to me or to her. As we are involving a co-sponsor, I’d like to get him to send the necessary paperwork as far in advance as possible, so we have minimal delays. I assume I’m right that I can just print these out from the UCSIS website and get them completed in advance?

Thanks in advance for your help! ☺

First of all, don't wait for anything to be sent. If you are proactive you can get through NVC quickly. We followed the (or a version) of the guide below and made it through NVC is 25 days
