2. IV documents:

Bar coded cover sheet

copy of birth certificate (beneficiary)

copy of marriage license

copy of police clearance

copy of biographic passport page

I think you need to send original birth certificate and marriage certificate. Pcc also need to original. Copies are unacceptable. You will get back all documents during interview.

hello Mahdieh - congratulations on your approval!

you can only file I-485 to adjust in the US if your PD is current. I think your PD is Oct 2013? if you are still here and your visa is still valid when your PD comes up, then you can adjust....My husband is also here on a tourist visa but he will have to go back soon. He has been with me for almost 6 months now! we were so wishing that he would have been able to adjust in the US.

Best of luck to you!

Hello guys,

I just got approved yesterday also my PD is 02/24/2014. Concerning the I864, I noticed that the actual one has expired. Are they planning to release a new one?

Also I became an LPR only on 11/01/2013. Hence I have only 2013 transcript where I declared my foreign income. I started working the last two months in 2014 but I had arround 25k US income for 2014 during those two months. I am actually having a full time six digits salary. Will I require a joint sponsor since I just started working end of 2014? Any answer will help me prepare for the AOS package.

Thanks!!!!

Does NVC send us welcome letter?

Hi Arrow,

Please see the below question and answers :

1) As we will not get any correspondence from NVC when they receive our case from USCIS. Don't you not think we need to call them frequently to chase this up? We will get correspondence. It just takes about 45 days.

2) After receiving our doucment, how long does the NVC take to assign a case number? The correspondence will have the case number.

3) When will you be needing all the documents from us? We can start to gather everything in the beginning of May.

4) As the visa bulletin is more likely to progress to September 1 2013 in May, how long do you think we will have until I get an interview date? Once the NVC is satisfied with the documents, it will send it over to the Embassy in London. The Embassy schedules the appointments and it depends on their backlog waitlist. It is usually between one and two months after NVC forwards the case.

5) Are all forms filled in online for NVC process? Some are, some aren’t.

6) Just to clarify will they start to count the six month time frame to enter USA from the date of my medical or from the date the visa issued? Six months from the issuance of the visa.

Yes at least three weeks from the date you got your NOA2 approved then start calling them but in the mean time prepare all the doucments required.
