How to pay NVC fee from abroad

[Thomas_C 0]

Hello fellow VJ users.

I got an email from NVC with case # and invoice ID. Obviously the next step is to pay fees. The problem is me (beneficiary) and my wife (sponsor) are both living abroad. She doesn't have any bank accounts in US so we're stuck on step of paying fees.

Did anyone had this kind of problem and how did you solve it? How can we pay from abroad? Or maybe there's a way to open a bank account online or something?

 

Thanks for your answers

Maybe you can use Western Union to send the money to someone in the US to pay it for you?? 

Im pretty sure you have to be physically present to open a bank account. Even to add someone to my account they have to be physically present.

Not an option, as there is no one to send to or ask for help

Within the US it is possible to open a bank account online but if you are not in the US the bank's website will detect it and will not let you continue.

I believe the only way is to have someone with a US account to do it for you. You'll have to find someone. You could try calling the NVC and see if they'll take an international money order but I see it as unlikely.
