My wife is applying for ir-1 visa.  So we are a bit confused if ds-2001 and GSS forms and what i posted above. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Being an IR-1 visa, you completed the AOS processing at NVC, also you paid your visa application fee through NVC before they scheduled your interview.

 

 

DS-2001 states to send this to notify the Bangkok you are ready for the interview.

You will want to go to the U.S. embassy, Bangkok website to for their documents checklist

Are you completing a DCF (Direct Consulate Filing)??    That would change things.   You would then be paying your visa fee directly (per embassy instructions), which is done after the local USCIS office has completed their processing.     

 

USCIS closed a ton of offices at embassies so DCF is very limited now, that is cool that Thailand still has a USCIS office

 

You will want to follow the process as listed on the embassy website for Thailand.

We applied 2 days before uscis stopped  excerpting new petitions . Now aproved after 30 days. So  I have to deal with embassy direct?? I have no idea if it is dfc...  I filled and completed ds-260 and completed on ceac and printed out confirmation page. 

When I check my status it says ready if have all documents. 

I don't know if i wait for nvc or make appointment

No NVC .. the perk of the DCF, USCIS local office handled everything for their end  ... and very fast.    Before the  USCIS office was closed in the Philippines a person could complete the whole visa process (including interview at the embassy) in 60 days or less.

 

You will want to get on the embassy website for the rest of your process.   https://th.usembassy.gov/visas/family-immigration/the-interview/    

 

And for sure read, and follow, this >>>  https://th.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/packets/

Thank you very much. I will continue as you instructed.  We have all documents from affidavits of suport and cival documents but have to wait 1 more weak for poloce certificate. 

 

I have not read your link but does my wifeI just bring the documents to the embassy or mail? And the fee just give to US embassy cashier desk? I would rather have my wife give in person than trust thai post with sensitive documents espsaly joint-sponsor afadavit.

~~moved to DCF from IR1/CR1 process and procedures.  Processes are different for DCF than the normal IR1/CR1 process. ~~~

I do not know the process for the embassy in Thailand, the links I provided should provide answers to your questions.

You will make the payment and submit the I-864 and other documents per the consulates instructions.   Sometime the instructions for DCF are not very clear.  You send nothing to the the NVC.

Thank you. I  find that the US embassy bangkok website is a little unclear. I'm not sure if I have to mail all my documents to them or just make a appointment and my wife personally gives them during interview.
