Another silly question:

When send AOS pacake or DS230 package, especially DS-230, there are more then 10 supporting documents,when send the package by email, do I need to send all the supporting documents for DS-230 (for example) in one single email, or doesn't matter, can be sent in several split email as long as in each email, I attach coversheet and receipt page?

Thanks!

either is fine. multiple file attachments in an email is fine.

Thanks!

it applies for EP as well - the document reviewers, even for EP, are used to seeing stuff in that order.

Will answer other Q's this evening, but do suggest you practice with CutePDF , reducing DPI to 200, greyscale/black and white.

Darnell, so should I send one PDF file with all the documents in the package, OR attach all the individual documents in the package?

Since you are getting close, and using a 'current' form version, IMO the date she writes will be ok.

Sorry, Darnell, what the "IMO" means?

Yes, it's the top right hand corner. Remember though, it's not mandatory to write the case number, just a suggestion by NVC and VJ members. If you do, write it on all papers as any one of them can get lost. If you don't feel comfortable writing the case number on originals, you can use sticky notes that are easily removable afterwards.

Saylin,

If use electric processing, do you think it is necessary to right case number on top right of the documents?

If yes, I am from China, should I use GUZ or GZO case number?

Hi,dear all,

Is anybody facing this issue? would you please share your experience with me?

I will sponsor my mom for IR5, I don't need my husband's income. In I-864 form #23 and #24, I fill in my individual annual income, but for #25, since I always file joint tax with my husband, I don't know how to fill in #25. somebody says just use the joint total income in line 22 in 1040 form, but that's the joint income with my husband, somebody says breakdown the income, but how? somebody say just use the amount in your W-2, which one is right? or all wrong?

Thanks!

When email AOS package, should I combine coversheet, AOS receipt, I-864 form and other supporting document as one big PDF file, or attach all these individual files in the single email?

My question is raised because some instruction says that you must put coversheet with barcode as the first page of your package, receipt as the second page, then cover page, all other documents must follow the same order listed in cover page. Is this for mail processing? is it also applied for EP?

I received NOA2 on June 24. Until July 18, I haven't received anything from NVC.

So I called them and emailed copy of NOA2 to NVCInquery and NVCResearch on July 18.

I received email response yesterday, July 21.

I received NVC case number today, July 22.

Good luck to everyone.

Congraduation, you finally got it.

I am still waitling.

Is tax trsnscript ordered from online (sent as a file from IRS) ok for submiting with AOS and for interview? is there difference of original or photocopy tax transcript?

If I use tax transcript as proof, no 1040, W2 and 1099 needed, right?

When I request tax return transcript for 2010, it's not available.

ah - splitting joint filers info, showing amounts on the I-864, that's beyond me, alas.

for other stuff - if you aren't using tax transcripts from IRS, then you have to furnish a complete copy of what was filed, including any 1099s. GUZ IV likes to see 3 years of tax info.

From some instruction, it say we should put our case number on top of right hand corner.

If I use EP, do we also need to put the case number to all the documents (include the certificates?) we submit to NVC? for DS-230 and Package 3 SUP sheet, do we also need to put the case number on top right corner before send them to beneficiary?

Thanks!

All these forms like DS-3032, DS-0230 and Package 3 Supplement Sheet, can I ask her sign and date them?

Is the date time matter? can these form be signed in same date and before I get the case number?

Thanks!

i suggest originals, strongly, for I-864 and it's collection of supporting evidence.

Thanks Darnell.

I-864 form and W-2 are original, but for 1040 form, the original is sent to IRS, we only have copy, right? also not everybody has 1099 form, right?

I am the sponsor, when fill it I-864 #23 and #24, I only fill in my salary (enough for petition), but my husband and I use joint tax, so which number (in which line) in 1040 form should be used for #25?

very appreciate your help.

Darnell,

Thank you so much for your quick reply.

For question 7: So I need to mail original I-864 back to my mom, right?

Since I also need to email tax return , W-2 form and 1099 form with I-864, can I just mail them the copies of all these documents or must mail them the originals?

My mom worked and lives in Chongqing.

After she retired, she came to Beijing and lived with us for 2~ 3 year before 1997, in this case, does she also need police certificate in Beijing? She already has one from Chongqing police station.

Thanks again.

Sorry, one more question.

I saw she also need Evidence of financial support (e.g. Affidavit of Support, a notarized offer of employment, or evidence of assets), right?

Hi, dear all,

------------- Apply IR5 for mom, GUZ NVC Electric Processing, still waiting for NVC case number

I just want to prepare something while waiting.

1: My mom has been US in 2001 and extend visa once, in this case when submit DS-230 package, do I need to submit the photocopy of the extension approval form with it?

2: Does my mom has to bring DS-230 (the original one she signed) and Package 3 Supplement Sheet ( the one she signed) with her in interview?

3: I will submit all the copies of original certificates to NVC by email, in this case if I want to get all the original certificates back after interview, does my mom need to bring all the copies of all the original certificates to get them back after interview?

4: Do she need appointment to make medical examination? how many dates does she need to be in Guangzhou before interview date? Does she need to bring something else except passport and 4 picture with her to do medical examination?

5: What about if there is no vaccination record for my mom? Is vaccination included in medical exammination or separate? If separate, should do vaccination before or after medical examination?

a lots of questions, thanks ahead.

On Package 3 Supplement form, I think the handwrite is ugly.

So I just type the anwsers for each line and print it out, glue to the form, then scan it to pdf file, send it to my mom to sign it.

Is this ok or must use handwriting?

One more question:

Does my mom also has to sign Packet 3 Supplemental Information Sheet?

1) GUZ / GZO case number

2) Visa Category

3) Name of each applicant in English and Chinese characters

4) Current mailing address in Chinese characters with postal code

5) Date of Marriage (if applicable)

6) Local Telephone Number

It's a one page sheet, non-fillable, so have to hand fill in it after the title in each line, rescan to pdf, right?

Thanks!

Darnell, thank you very much.

Yes, I just prepare these documents, I cannot do anything with NVC before I get case number.

One more question: while I am waiting for NVC case number, can I download DS-230 and I-864 form and begin to fill them or I must use the forms emailed by NVC.

I will enroll electric processing after I get my case number.

Thanks!

I got email from NVC told me that USCIS inform NVC that my petition is en route to NVC.

So I have to be patient.

Hi, all,

I apply IR5 for my mom. I want to choose electric processing.

My mom doesn't know how to print file, recan it to file, all these stuff, right now my niece is with her, she will leave soon, I want her help my mom finish all these form issues.

Excep DS-3032 and DS-230 that need my mom's signature, what else forms or documents ( I already have all the notaries, photocopy of passport page, passport style picture) needed to send to me?

Also my niece said she tries several copy stores, it's hard to find a store that can scan a file to pdf format in my home town, so can we rescan the file to other format?

Thanks!

Saylin,

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi, dear all,

Until today, NVC still didn't receive my file, my NOA2 approved data is June 27, 15 working days past.

Except send email to NVCResearch@state.gov, what should I do? I sent one on Jul 16, but no anwser.

Thanks!
