I need some help please... After I 130 is approved what is the next step? does NVC contact us or do we need to contact them? where would i get there e mail address to contact them? Just needing some help with this.

Congratulations on your approved I-130!

I highly suggest reading this guide. Please follow the steps to the letter. I did and had zero problems.

The key during NVC stage is to be proactive...to anticipate the steps and prepare for them before they happen. You'll breeze through if you do.

Good luck with your case! Keep us posted! :thumbs:
