We called NVC last week and they said that we need to send in all orginal documents except Passport along with DS-230 (part 1 & 2). The same now reflects in their website....any way waiting for instructions for DS230.

Anybody who got the instructions for mailing DS230 recently, share your experience...

Goodluck!

Hi Dunhill,

Do you know whether your DS-230 has been generated?

My DS-230 was generated on Dec 24th. So, I mailed my spouse's DS-230 and photocopy of passport using James 2.0 shortcuts on Dec 27th.

I received the instructions yesterday. It didn't mention anything about sending original documents....just DS-230 and photocopy of biographic page of passport. But says to submit original documents at visa interview (in our case - VFS).

Hope this helps, I will keep you posted.

Cheers

My DS 230 is yet to be Generated, we had just called NVC asking about the documents and they said we should send all Orginals when we receive instructions for DS 230...anyway waiting for DS 230 instructions & also started gathering all documents including PCCs.

I know the james shortcut 2.0 is all about generating barcodes...but will NVC accept sending in like that?

JIGI - don't get upset, you just need to submit all required docs and you will be done.
