IV invoice? How long will it take?

[ufo 3]

I submitted DS 260 on 21st and on 22nd I received an email for AoS so I paid the AoS the same day.

Under IV section, I see "PAY NOW" . But when I click on it, it just shows the AoS fee as "in progress" and not the $230 fee.

How long will it take to get the IV fee to become available?

The IV fee is invoiced when the DS-261 is reviewed and accepted. When did you send that in? It suppose to be 30 business days for the DS-261.

how long will the DS261 review take?

how long will the DS261 review take?

as stated above, 30 business days. Apparently now its 60 days for all packages.

Some have had the IV invoiced before that but some have waited 65 days to get it

When u log in, under IV, does it says pay now? or not available?

It says pay now in red (for everyone it does after AOS is paid)

But when you click on it you can't pay the IV fee since it's not invoiced.

I think if I'm lucky mine will get invoiced early September. They also send out email once the fee is invoiced.

You need to expect 60 days for everything. After u paid the Aos . I Will take them 60 to review your document , it will take them 60 from the day you submitted you D-261 to review it then make your Iv invoice ready to be paid , them it will take 60 days to review your civil documents , Also make sure that you send everything correctly because if you don't then u will have to wait another 60 days for the document resent to be reviewed, if u do have any checklist then it will take 60 days for the new checklist document to be reviewed. Good luck to you all.
