Hello, after I emailed DS3032 to NVC (following the wiki format) I received this automated response from NVC. Is this normal? Is there a need to send again the DS3032 email or just wait now for them to accept the DS3032 Choice of Agent. Thanks!

I am still waiting for the acceptance of the emailed DS-3032 that was originally sent on 7/4/08 and sent again on 7/16/08 with an auto response right after. It can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks for them to accept it. Good luck.

Yes you might try again because if you did not receive an autoresponse it means that they have not received it. You both can try from each of your email addresses to see if that works. Good luck.

I tried the parallel route:

1) My wife and myself sent in the choice of agent selection by email Tuesday and Wednesday last week as soon as we heard the DS-3032 had been generated.

2) Also on Wednesday, my wife mailed the DS-3032 directly from the Philippines by express mail (i.e. UPS)

Today IVC states that they received the package yesterday (i.e. the one from the Philippines): this occurred before they ever responded to the email(s), so express mail definitely seems to be the fastest route with my case, even with the DS-3032 being shipped from abroad. I guess it takes them more time to sift through the emails.

timeline

July 14: I-130 and I29F approved

July 26: NVC acknowledges receipt of both I-130 and I-129F

July 28: DS-3032 and AOS fee bill generated (although dated 2 days earlier when I received the snail mail)

July 29: mailed off $70 AOS fee

July 30: spouse mailed of DS-3032 by express email (UPS) from Philippines

August 4: DS-3032 hard copy received from Philippines

August 4: AOS fee bill received by NVC (although wrong date was on James' short cut generated bill!)
