Quick question which i can't figure out with advanced googling in VJ: if you send pay stubs with the AoS - should they be original or copies? Thanks!

I'm the beneficiary.

Don't have a timeline? Don't know how to get started with it? Do it for the statistics sake: VJ video guide

Filing for a USC spouse visa (IR-1/CR-1) and not sure what comes next? Check out the VJ IR-1/CR-1 guide

Want to know what's happening with your case? Here's the USCIS tracking page (get an account and see if the case's been 'touched'!). Don't get your hopes up though, some cases never even appear there despite being successfully processed.

Congrats and welcome to the NVC thread.

It takes couple of days/weeks for USCIS to actually ship the approved petition to NVC.

After they receive it, it takes about 20 business days for NVC to assign a case Number and IIN.

After that, in general, it is matter of days to get things going!

Good luck.

I got approved on Feb 26 and petitions sent Feb 27. Still waiting for NVC to receive.

Another waiting game, but now at least we know we are almost there!!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone...we got our I-130 approved on Feb 27th , and same day status update showed our papers were shipped to NVC. When should i start following up with them ? . Also , i have been looking at the thread , and had few questions ,

1.Is their a min bank balance we should show when filling AOS ? i am currently pursuing my MBA fulltime , hence my income is 0.

2.Packet IV , most of the documents we had already submitted when we sent our package to USCIS , do we need to resubmit it again ?

Thanks , and i hope NVC is faster in their timelines compared to USCIS :)
