Thanks, thats the plan. I will Call NVC everyday if I have to, because I know that once I get my Case # and Invoice number, life would get really easy for me. Thanks Again!

Can you tell us if the USCIS website shows your correct status yet?

Is it common for people to get NOA2 in the postal mail first than the online update?

I just checked USCIS and still Shows Inital Review! Maybe they will take there swet time to update it.

Josh

Thanks for the input guys. I have read alot of the Shortcut guides and I will read them again now that I am officially at the NVC Status. I will give NVC about a week, but I will call them this friday (AVS) and see if I can get something. After about week and a half I will try to get hold of the operator. BTW, what info do I need from NVC besides the case number? I remember reading that I will also need to get my invoice #? Please let me know so when I call I know what to ask. I am hoping and wishing that I will be done with NVC with one month or less. I will try to get all my documents and my wife's documenst all together and go from there.

Thank You!

Josh

Thank You Everyone, I know the waiting sucks, but I am glad that it was done within 5 months. I have aleady read alot of the Shortcuts Guides and I even printed lot of the material and I am ready for NVC. My AOS Packet is ready, just waiting on get the Case # and then I will start to put it all together and send it out. Regarding my Wife side, I talked to her two weeks ago and I ask if she wants me to handle the paperwork or if she wants to do it. I told her that if I take over, things would move faster. But I have already mailed her DS-230 and DS-3032.

Again Thank You to everyone for all your help and all the input and I wish that everyone get there NOA2 soon. Now you will find me in the NVC Section of thos fourm. See Ya Guys Their!

Josh

I guess now I will be bugging you guys in this area. I have already shared my good news with everyone, but since I am in this part of the fourm, I will share again. I finally got my NOA2 today and will start the NVC quest. I was think about waiting for one week before I start to call NVC, is this good idea? For the people going from Approved I-130, what is the time frame from USCIS to NVC? I wanted to say thank you to everyone in advance and I look forward for smooth ride with NVC.

Thanks Again!

Josh

ok Guys, now down to business. For the People who has started there NVC Paperwork, how long does it usually takes before NVC will get my case. My idea was to start to call them after One week and see what happens. Is this a good idea? I did not wanted to start another thread, so I will ask most of my NVC question in here before I start to ship out my paperwork.

Please share your thoughts on What would be a good step for me, now that I have NOA2 in hand! Thank You!

Josh

Thank You, just for the heck of it, I checked USCIS website and it stil shows Inital Review, but who cares, I got my NOA2 and thats all that matters. I will call USCIS next week and say BIG Thank You.

Hello there Guys, I have been reading around this Form and I am a bit confused about Original/Certified Documents to go along with DS-230 and send all of them to NVC. I thought that you need the orginal Doc when you go for the Interview. If I send everything orginal to NVC, will I get my orginal Back. If I am sending NVC Orginal Information Plus Photocopy of all the Orginal Paperwork, this would mean that I will get my Orginal Back when my Wife is at the Interview and They will keep the Photocopy of the Paperwork for there record, Am I correct with this Inforamtion?

And instead of starting another Thread, can you guys also approve my edited Info on DS-230 Requirement Documents, Is It Good Now?

Thank You Kuldip for sharing your information. I will Add Your recommendtions to my list. Do you have any other recommendations. Since you are from India, you might have more information, if you do, please share. Thank You All!

Well I guess I will find out in the next week or so and see if I get an e-mail or Hard Notice in the mail regarding my recent update. I will keep my fingers cross and hope for the best. Thanks Everyone!

Josh

they will ask for crimial investigation report of your spouse also but it has ot be recent one.

What is the Difefrent Between Police Report and Crimial Investigation Report? This is required and How come it is not on the Guide?

Also guys, I just recheck the USCIS and got this little Note when You Scroll Down on the Page for Case Status. It's making me little happy, but I will not know untill the Notice is in my Hannd.

* Note on "Last Updated" date:

Your case may have a new "Last Updated" date and you may receive an Email and/or text message notification of your case being updated, without the status of the case changing. This is due to internal USCIS processing being performed on your Case. This will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date, but may not result in a different status message.

That's what I was thinking that I should send one copy od DS-230 to NVC and then have the other copies for our Records. Thank You for listing the documents. I will get them ready and before I send them out (When the time is right) I will checkin with you guys again!

Thanks Again Everyone, now I am off to get my Paperwork ready!

Josh
