Checklist:

Did you answer each question on the Form I-130 petition?

Did you sign and date the petition?

Did you enclose the correct filing fee for each petition?

Did you submit proof of your U.S. citizenship or lawful

permanent residence?

Did you submit other required supporting evidence?

AND keep reading:

If you are filing for your husband or wife, did you include:

His or her photograph?

Your completed Form G-325A?

His or her Form G-325A?

Did you filed I-130 as well G325a to apply to your mother???

No. Only I-130.

No, right now you need to wait till USCIS cash the check, send you a Notice that they received your petition and after that they will approve your petition (It may take from 2 weeks to 1 year depending on the USCIS.). And you will receive your notice of Approval, where they will say that your petition approved and forwarded to NVC. After that NVC will receive it in 1-2 weeks (some time it takes up to 3 month) and give you defferent number of your case. couple weeks after that they will generate DS 3032 and also they will send you a bill for $70 at the same time.

Thank you.

Just wondering what they will ask my mom on the interview.

Thanks!

Congrats!!!!

Hi happyinlove,

could you please update the spreadsheet:

NVC MAILED TO EMBASSY on October 10th and EMBASSY RECEIVED on October 15th

Thanks.

I don't know. You maybe the lucky one and it maybe will work. If not then also not a big deal they will send you RFE and then you can send originals. I know that it worked for my friend and didn't work for me. So who knows what they thinking or doing there.

original documents or certified copies of the documents. certified copies it is Identically copies from an original place where you got original document. And the problem is that there will be different number on the document. I got RFE from NVC because I did not send them my original Birth Certificate and Marriage Certificate with my mom's DS 230. They approved my case only after they received my original documents also.

And on the interview they will return all original docs to your mom.

I didn't use the shortcuts, but LingChe NVC Shortcut looks the same what I did. http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/...he_NVC_ShortCut

Could you please tell me w/ I-130 what should I send?

1. Money order $355

2. Form I-130

3. My birth certificate (copy)

4. Certificate for naturalization (copy)

Is there anything else recommended to send? Do the copies need to be certidied copies? Also, were you the agent or your mom recived her mail. I am trying to find out if is safe enough I to be my moms agent and receive all her mail. She doesn`t speak English and not so good w/ computer. Have you tried the shortcuts.....?

Thank you in advance

Yes, I did 1,2,3,4 and copy of mothers passport first page with her name (just in case). Everything was just regular copies (NOT certified). And Yes, I was my moms agent. I sent them DS 3032 After my petition was approved and NVC received it and generated form for choice of agent. Also as soon as your petition will be approved ask your mother get the police certificate and send it to you together with her original Birth Certificate, Original Marriage/Divorce Certificate etc and form DS 230 with her signature.

Good luck!

I don't have same experience with error. But I did file documents for my mom and she will have an interview. You can see my timeline below.

And I think it is better correct all errors before you file for her. Good luck.

Hi everybody! i was wondering does it really matter how you complete the i-864 forms? I read that nvc prefer using a computer in CAPITAL LETTERS. ALSO, I just payed my aos bill for $70.00 is it okay if i can pay my second one today? they had accepted my payment. Is it 2 early?

I sent them hand written.

I sent email and it took them 14 days to approve this form, my hard copy they approved in 2 days. So it is up to you. It is faster with hard copy.

NVC asked me for it, but I didn't have it so I sent them my divorce certificate.

They received my RFE on Monday 29th and case was completed on Friday same week.

Good luck to you!

Thank you Chaddna and Happyinlove.

Congrats to everyone who got interview date.

I just called to NVC!!! Interview date is November 10th!!!!
