Hi,

I have no idea what's wrong with NVC system. When I printed the cover letters for AOS and DS-230 it had following address:

National Visa Center

Attn. CMR

32 Rochester Avenue

Portsmouth, NH 03801-2909

After, a day I received email with cover letter to send documents to following address. Also, when I went on the payment site the cover sheet has the new address.

National Visa Center

Attn. CMR

31 Rochester Avenue, Suite 100

Portsmouth, NH 03801-2909

I have already sent the documents to first address. Did anyone else had this problem? Should I worry about this? I tried to call Fedex to ask them to deliver it to the new address but not sure if they whould do that. Advance thanks for your response.

Hi,

A quick question about number 24 on DS-230 form. It aks for mothers family name at birth. Is it mothers family name at her birth or mothers family name at applicant birth. I am just a little confused and wanted to confirm it. I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks.

Hi all,

I've seen a few posts about upgrading I-130 petitions and all that but 1) didn't want to hijack someone's topic and 2) some have been going for years w/ lots of variations so it gets confusing. But basically, here's my situation:

I'm an LPR who will be filing N400 (citizenship) in March. I was thinking of filing the I-130 in February and then waiting for citizenship to upgrade later. I've seen on here and heard that the upgrades can be fairly quick but then there are some timelines where it takes months for the upgrade to occur. The lawyer I consulted also said that the upgrading is a waste of time and to just file when I'm a citizen.

So...I'm throwing this question out to all of you wonderful VJers: what do you think? Is it worth applying as an LPR now? Or shoud I just wait to become a citizen?

Thanks! (and also sorry if this question is so repetitive and thus, boring).

I applied for my wife and daughter before I applied for my citizenship.. now I am hoping it will be quicker.. but not sure how long this will take.. But I will post when I-130 get approved
