EMail DS-3032 Rejected!

[badspellor 0]

I followed the DS-3032 E-Mail form on the wiki and after waiting 7 days for them to get to the email they rejected it! It appears that you have to have not only the beneficiary's name and date of birth but also the petitioner's name and date of birth! Here's their reply to me:

Your inquiry has been received at the National Visa Center (NVC).

According to U.S. law, the National Visa Center is only permitted to discuss details of a visa case with authorized representatives and when provided with all of the following information:

" NVC case number or CIS receipt number

" Petitioner's name and date of birth

" Beneficiary's name and date of birth

" Your full name

If you are the legal representative, please include a copy of your signed G-28, Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney or Representative, showing that you are the legal representative as well as the following information:

" NVC case number or CIS receipt number

" Petitioner's name and date of birth

" Attorney's law firm name

" Attorney's law firm address

" Your full name

If you are corresponding regarding an I-140 petition you must provide the following information:

" NVC case number or CIS receipt number

" Name of the petitioning company

" Beneficiary's name and date of birth

" Your full name

Please resubmit your inquiry including the required information.

Regards,

That's odd. My husband didn't even put HIS date of birth and it was still accepted. I guess it depends on who is processing this stuff so it's best to include everything.

This could be something new they're doing. I noticed now after emailing it again that the Auto Response email has that "Privacy Policy" bit tagged onto the end of it. The first DS-3032 email we sent them didn't have that on the autoresponse. Perhaps in the time between when we sent it and the time they actually got around to checking it that the policy has changed? Who knows. Oh well, what's a week's delay when you had to wait 8 months for NOA2, right?

I can't verify if it's a new policy, but I did put in petitioner and beneficiary in the email and it got accepted yesterday after a week. So for future reference, it's a good idea to have those info before adding the usual details from JS's wiki (someone please edits it on Wiki's DS-3032 form).

Case Number =

Beneficiary's Name and DOB =

Petitioner's Name and DOB =

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is ...

I updated the wiki information at : http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Jame%27s_Shortcut

The old email form though had everything except the petitioners birthdate.

I noticed that the old email template did not have all information NVC needs for DS-3032 as well as Date of Birth for beneficiary and petitioner. I modified e-mail template and made it easy to follow for NVC employees since it is similar to DS-3032.

Wow, NVC always has to keep you on your toes I guess.

did you send email from petitioner's email or from beneficiary's email

it might make difference , maybe

because only beneficiary can choose an agent

that is why they asked you for g-28

I might be wrong, maybe

I had a problem also. When I called the birth date I gave for myself, The USC did not match their records. So the IGNORANCE followed me from the CSC. I guess it will continue until the end. This is very F R U S T R A T I N G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Credzba and DivyeSiddhi for updating the guide!

Ok, looks like NVC has some sort of new "automated" email response because I got the SAME email AFTER reading this post. I actually read this post today and was having my husband send email of DS3032 today also. I edited the NVC email to make sure it had both our DOB and he sent it and it generated that same email message.

He was confused, and asked me if he needed to do anything else, but after reading the email in relation to everything else, I can tell its an automated email. It asks you to submit additional documentation only if you are a lawyer or other agent (not petitioner or beneficiary) and to submit documentation if you are submitting an I-140.

From what I gather...this email is automated. NVC handles more than just I-130 cases and people email them at that address all the time for lots of inquiries....and this indeed seems to be a law/policy that they are just reminding people of.

So hopefully we will get an acceptance email within the week.

It was sent from the beneficiary's email. Had her send it again edited to include my DOB as well and I guess we'll know next Monday or so if it flies!

Yes it appears the auto response has changed. The auto response that was originally sent to us didn't have all that US Law stuff in it. A week passed and the NVC had responded to our request with a sorry but you're missing some of the required info and copy/pasted that stuff onto the end of it. Had their autoresponse reflected this the first time we sent the email we would have resent it right away realizing our omission. Oh well, at least this will help others in the future. The DS3032 email form on the Wiki looks good now! Good job all.

i believe it the way of your email. if NVC see it might be strange then they won't allow you to get anything. you know it prevent identity thief and other stuff too.

Dear Sir or Madam,

My name is "SPouseName" , my visa case number is # "NVC Case Number"

Unfortunately I cannot locate my DS-3032 and would like to appoint my

husband as my agent of choice to receive all the correspondence from NVC.

His name and address is:

"Agent or My Address"

All mail from the U.S. Department of State concerning my immigration visa

application should be send to the address above. Thank you for your help.

Sincerely yours,

"Spouse Signature"

Hi

With the NVC i have been extra paranoid, i used pretty much the above format but included for both of us full name, DOB and even had my spouse cc the email to me.

the auto response was immediate and the acceptance was about 2 weeks later.

Regards
