What I know it´s gonna be fine if you start using her married name from now on. You will send a marriage certificate where he married name is and since you changed the passport and need to send a copy of that, it will be fine. They will be able to see her maiden name at one place and her married name in another so I think they will understand. But maybe someone else here on VJ knows for sure.

Thank You.

My joint sponsors paperwork has arrived and we will be sending our I864 tomorrow. Signature black or blue inc?

Everything in black inc. on I-864.

I think you will have to use the same name as the new passport (married name) because she will get the visa with the same name and it has to match with the passport.

I would suggest you to call NVC and let them know that you have done this change and ask them before filling DS-261.

Here is an old thread I found which might be helpful: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/278687-nvc-spouse-name-change-after-nao2-aproval/

Thank you very much.

Do you think I should wait till the process the name change before sending AOS and IV packages?

Thank You,

Please help guys,

I was about to start filling DS-261. I realized I used my wife's maiden name to fill I-130. We changed her name on the passport after filling I-130. Is it fine if we change her name on DS-261 to her married name?

Please help,

Thank You

Hoping to get case and IIN numbers this week. Fingers crossed.

Finally I got a case complete today my scan date was 26/5/2015

Congrats. Hope you get interview soon.

No you will not get a checklist for filing i-864 instead of I-864EZ. If you have filled i-864 correctly you should be good to go.

Thank you very much.

Lol hopefully you'll get it anytime now

Hoping for the best!! I think they will give it at the end of 2 weeks only. If I get it anytime before that, than it will be a bonus.

NVC just received my case today. Now another two weeks to get a case number, though I'll probably call them everyday after a week.

Yep, that's what I am doing. NVC received my case on June 15th and still waiting for case number.

Guys,

I am just trying to get ahead of myself. I have already filled out I-864; however, I do qualify to fill I-864EZ.

Do you think I will get checklisted for sending I-864 instead of I-864EZ?

Thank you in advance.

Hello. I just checked and it says NVC. I was reading on the website that after they recieve our paper work, it takes another 3 or 4 months after to schedule an interview. I hope that's not true. We already had our C.C on may 18. So it's 3 or 4 months after C.C to schedule an interview or is it 3 or 4 months after the embassy recieves our paper work from the NVC to schedule an interview. Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Here is the link where you can check the days from CC to interview. Search for your country.

Hi

I got approved on June 1st. Just called NVC yesterday and they have received my case on Monday, June 20th. How long should I have to wait until they give me my case number and invoice? They say two weeks but hope it's before that

Hi,

NVC received my case on June 15th. I am still waiting for case number and iin number. I see people are getting case and iin numbers anywhere from 8 to 12 business days. However, I am calling them everyday starting today lol.

Thank You.

Hii

Called nvc and they said that the case was recieved on june 21st 2016 and can expect to get the case number in next 2 weeks..i hope i gt earlier than that. ..

Ok I have 1 query regarding the agent form, if we hav a lawyer do v still need to submit the agent form??

Hi, I think we are same boat. Mine was approved on 6/07 and received on 6/15. I am waiting on case number and iin number. It is usually taking 2 weeks for them to assign a case number.

Not sure about agent form because I dont have a lawyer. I will post here once I have my case number.

Thank You.

Guys please help,

When i filled my spouse I-130 petition I used my wife's madien name. After the petition we changed her passport and she has taken my last name and middle name.

My question is can I change her name in the NVC process? Meaning, can I use her married name on DS260, DS261, and I-864? Would this cause any delay in our process?

Thank You.

My case was received by NVC on June 15th. What is the current trend of issuing the case number number and IIN?

Thank you.

Guys,

I really appreciate everyone's help here. It is really awesome to see that you guys are pulling this together as a family.

I have a question for tax return. We got married on Jan 31st 2016. When I did my 2015 taxes I filled as a single person, because I was single in 2015. I read somewhere that this is going to be a red flag when it comes to interview and nvc stage. Should I do something different in this case?

Thank You.
