Hello guys, thanks in advance for your help. We were assigned case number and IIN last week.

My questions are:

1. Should we fill-out DS-261 now? We haven't received instructions from NVC thru email yet.

2. My printer at home is crappy, can I save the DS-261 confirmation page to my laptop and print it later?

As for AOS bill,it's saying it's in the process of termination, so I guess they are invoicing it.

Thank you VJ friends!!!! Godbless everyone.
