All, I have a question, I paid the IV fee online and its paid for now! I have the option to generate the Coversheet right on the page. Do I send the DS-230 now or wait for the appropriate NVC automated message to send the DS-230 forms? Thanks.

Yes Chittu and Piya, you can mail IV package with online barcode coversheet, DS-230 and all other documents :star:

Your timeline in NVC is really good and fast. I am following your path :star::star::star:

I think NVC is a cake walk in 1.5 months time because of the online payment system :star: I am taking 2 weeks vacation to India starting from May 15th. So I believe, I would be able to mail DS-230 and all docs before that, based on your timeline :star:

Good luck Chittu and Piya and hopefully, your beneficiary and mine would be in July 2008 Chennai U.S consulate list. They publish the interview list on every 15th of the month for the next month's interview. So, watch out on June 15th for July list. :star::star::star:

Lotofpatience, I generated my I-864 cover sheet online after the PAID status and it went through my bank already, But I checked the phone system just now and it still hasn't changed, can I send my I-864 package today or not? I am confused about that part because the phone system hasn't chagned... I dont want my I-864 to be rejected because I send it in too soon, and since the phone system doesn't say that the I-864 was generated. :help:

What is the status of your K3. Mine was sent to the consulate on April 23. I am hoping to convert the K3 interview to CR1 interview if CR1 gets closed at NVC soon enough.

Fire, our I-129F is still pending. That's good one way :star:

You mean, your I-129F approved and already at Chennai. That's great ! I bet CR1 would be the best option for you right now since NVC will close your case in a month or so. But it is up to you :star:

Did you write a letter to U.S Consulate officer at Chennai to hold K-3 interview ???

Not yet. I thought we'll do that after we get an interview date. I paid the AOS bill yesterday and the status shows paid. Do you know how long before the IV bill will be available online?

Did they accept your DS-3032 ? If yes, IV Fee bill should be generated in around a week after DS-3032 acceptance, based on other timelines. :thumbs:

Hey Guys,

Wish you all the best. Actually I needed your guidance as I just checked my NVC message and it says that the "...NVC has received the DS3032, Choice of Agent and Address form on______. and will send further instructions within the next few weeks..."

Please advise what should I do now. Should I send the I-864 documents now. Also, how to pay the IV bill and when to pay.

I would be grateful for your help. Thank You
