Can the K1 visa application fee be paid while Petition is still at NVC?

[Grantman1987 23]

We have a case and invoice number from approved petition. When i check the status of the case on the website, under Immigrant Visa, it shows our case is at NVC. It also shows a link to step by step instructions on how to schedule the interview. The first step is to choose an agent which is a DS-261 form. When i try to fill out the form, the site says "case number does not match our records". Right now my fiance's sister is heading to Bank of Philippines to pay the fee. So we're just hoping they'll let us. Any advice appreciated

Yes, bpi will allow.   Don't follow nvc instructions,  follow the 5 steps on the Manila website .  Fyi,  You fill out the ds160
