Today I mailed the AOS package to NVC today by overnight mail, and As of today I am still waiting for the DS-3230 to be accepted by NVC which was emailed on 6-18.

And I know for fact, that I cannot move fwd to next stage mailing DS-230 until I receive the all the required docs from India including PCC, Which should take another 10 days before I receive the package from India, as we are waiting for PCC to arrive as it would approx 5-7 days to get it and then courier to U.S ( that 4 days). So now it waiting game when will the arrive.

Thanks

Good luck Chintan, yes, it is waiting time for you :star:

FYI,

Fathima reached Chennai on 25th morning and went to the Lister Metropolis Lab for her X-ray and blood test. Also, she collected the report from the lab in the evening after 4PM. The report is in a sealed envelope to give to the physician. So, that part is over :dance:

Because of this, we pre-poned her Physician appointment 1 day early. So, instead of Friday, it is going to be tomorrow - 26th :dance:

Another good news is somebody from NVC walked to my home and hand-delivered my (petitioner) copy of Fathima's interview appointment letter. I am just kidding :rofl:

It actually reached by mail yesterday :dance:NVC printed it out on 05/28/2008, mailed it out on 06/06/2008 and I got it on 06/24/2008. what a speed :devil: I have scanned all 5 pages and emailed to her, so that she can take the print out from Chennai, though it is not necessary :dance::dance::dance:

So, guys - update your details :star: We're thrilled, we have another 8 more days for interview :dance::dance::dance:

Did your IV fee bill generated online ? If yes, that's one type of confirmation about DS-3032 acceptance. Normally, email conformation will come in 7 to 10 days. Did you follow all guidelines of email format such as Subject, Body etc. ?

As of today IV fee bill is not invoiced. And for the email I used the DS-3032 email template on VJ, so it follows all the guidelines and just to be safe, I send them a second email to NVC about DS3032 today.

Thanks

Loto and other VJ members,

My husband's DS-230 forms arrived to the NVC location on 6-24 but not to the actual review place for processing. How long does it take them to send it to the review place ?

Also, Like AOS, we have to write our case number on upper right hand corner on all the documents.. right.. i did the same in DS-230.. is that ok??

NVC mailroom.. when do they mail..?? I haven't received my Information and Instructions Package till this date..

Thanks in advance..

Bani
