friends,

my status in the online receipt page for aos payment says "PAID" although i have'nt paid the iv fee yet as i'm still waitng for the iv bill notice.

in the affidavit of support processing instructions, it says:

Warning: Do not take any action described above without authorization from the NVC. Taking action without the NVC's authorization could result in a delay in processing.

some went ahead in the steps even without the authorization, some waited. there was even a case where someone waited for authorization for 4 weeks only to end up hearing from nvc that he just had to do the instructions by downloading the necessary forms and following the other next steps.

can someone share their experience on this issue? we don't want to waste time. thanks a lot.

My lawyer asked me to wait for a notification from NVC. So far she has been wrong about almost everything. :bonk:

So I called NVC Customer Support yesterday and asked an agent (after 12 minutes of hold) whether I can send the AOS documents.

She said: "Since the fees are showing as 'Paid' you do not have to wait for any other notification from NVC. So just send them."

I sent them today!
