Hi all,

Just want a quick response from all of you ,

is it better to email NVC for CHOICE OF ADDRESS AND AGENT, DS-3032 or mail the actual form?

thanks

Fahad

I did email one and many people did that.

And don't you think it's a good idea to send by email?

I hope I could send my all documents electronically.

Time and money saving!
