I talked to a guy at NVC to find out steps and what to expect after sending AOS and DS3032. I asked him when I could expect to be invoiced for the IV app and he said it can already be sent in for review even before I am invoiced for the IV...said just send in the same cover sheet from when the AOS is paid..... I really WANT to get it sent to get things going....but Im nervous there will be a hold up since it 's not paid for yet.... Has anyone done this with success??

Hmmm never heard that, its safest to wait to get IV invoiced because if you do not send the coversheet for the IV bill you will get an RFE which will delay your process bit more. that's just from what we have read and experienced ourselves as far as waiting for the IV bill being invoiced. i'm sure others can lighten bit more on this, im interested to know this as well if anyone has done it without no problems.

Genesis 2:22-24
Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said, "This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called 'woman, ' for she was taken out of man." For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.

Wait for it to get invoiced.. Pay it.... then send coversheet confirming paid in full..Your almost there..

Thanks guys....that's kind of what I was thinking....I don't want to cause any delays that are for something silly like that.
