NVC Filers - July 2018

[Tanambera 84]

We have received our welcome letter.

Now I want to make sure I understand well.

About the collected documents to submit, do  we only send copies and keep original of everything? Or some documents like I-864EZ have to be sent in original version?

Was about calling NVC to unlock our iv fee when we both got the invoice for iv fee via email.

Submit copies to nvc while the beneficiary comes to the embassy with the originals. 

 

Original form 1864 should be sent to nvc and a copy/original to the interview

Today again i got iv fee invoice. Once yesterday. But i already paid. I guess its just mistakes.

I have two questions : 

- can we send the AOS and IV packages whenever we want after getting the welcome letter  or have we to follow the 6 steps in order ?

 

- For a CR1 do we need to include a proof of status ( copy of US passport or petitioner birth certificate) ?

 

Thanks

Hi everyone,

 

This is my first post on the site, but I've been reading all of the comments. I am petitioning for my wife who is in Colombia at the moment. Our case was received by the NVC on June 1st, and we are still waiting on the case and invoice numbers. I noticed there are a few others in Colombia, so let me know where you're at in the process. I'm really hoping we get our case number soon, because I will be going to Colombia to visit my wife on July 17 and was really hoping to submit our paper work before I go. Is Colombia pivot or non? From what I've been reading it's non, so I will be mailing all of the documents. Any idea on approximately how long it would take DHL to mail our docs to the US from Colombia?

 

Also, I've been working on getting everything from our joint sponsor for the I-864 form and have a question. She makes above the federal poverty guidelines now but didn't for the past three tax years that I had to include on the form. Is this going to cause a problem, or do they just rely on the salary for the current year?

 

Also, what can I expect when sending my docs to the NVC? Will they send instructions on how to put everything in order and submit it or is that kind of up to me like I did for the I-130? Any advice on the process or timing of events would be much appreciated. My wife and I are so anxious to finally be together. Thanks in advance!

Submission for your package has no restricted time but to be on the faster side you can submit after paying your IV fee but it will not be scanned into the system/reviewed until ds260 has been completed online.

 

Proof of Status is your US birth certificate OR your Naturalization certificate.

Nvc is much more easier,the welcome letter will guide you.

 

You are going to wait 9-10weeks to get your welcome letter since Colombia is non pivot but you should start calling NVC in the 7th week
