hi everyone

My wife and I are filling out our DS 260 form. I am the beneficiary so I filled out that form. she is currently filling out her AOS form and gathering all our needed info to mail in to the NVC.

what I want to know is, does she have to print my filled out DS 260 form and send it together with her AOS (affidavits of support)  and evidence? or is the DS 260 form to be done online only?  I am at the part where it says "sign and submit Application.

The next step is :Confirmation

DS-260 is submitted online.

You should also get an email confirmation after submitting it. You can print the DS-260 confirmation as well after submitting.

Along with AOS package, there is the IV package that needs to be sent to NVC as well as well the cover sheet. The IV package will have the beneficiary's information.

The IV fee is $325 and it's paid online. Just like the $120 AOS fee was paid.

Once you get the email confirmation, you would print the document cover sheet and gather the necessary documents for the IV package. These are things like marriage certificate, beneficiary's birth certificate and passport biographic info, police certificate, etc.

AOS is generally used for Adjustment of Status - I know you specified that you meant the i864. I just thought I'd tell you cause you might cause confusion talking to ppl if you refer to the i864 as AOS form. 

In any case :) good luck to you both

ohh ok thanks..its because I heard someone say AOS is "Affidavits of support". Our process feels like it's almost over though. i'm grateful it went by without any issues and and pray it continues that way. this site has been so helpful.we would really be lost if we didn't bump into this site.

Does anyone know what they do about vaccinations? i have all my vaccinations required for this country (trinidad and tobago) but i am missing a few that is required for the united states. in the part of the application where i was asked if i have documents to prove that i'm up to date with united states vaccinations i put "no". and i explained that i have vaccinations required for my country.

what do they do in this case?

I think that you created the confusion since no where did he mention Adjustment of Status.

AOS, as he stated, is also Affidavit of Support, and it is mailed along with the IV package to NVC.

From above:

 

AOS is generally used for Adjustment of Status - I know you specified that you meant the i864. I just thought I'd tell you cause you might cause confusion talking to ppl if you refer to the i864 as AOS form. 

In any case :) good luck to you both

 

NVC refers to it as AOS fee and document / just saw this on USCIS site where they post fee schedule
