I have just sent my DS-3032 Choice of Agent by e-mail.

I took Ling Ling´s adivce and didn´t wait until the AVR says that DS-3032 was generated.

The NVC has sent me AUTO RESPONSE 1 min ago.

Should I send DS-3032 once more now?

It happened to me also .once i paid fees , online showed some ones record rather mine .Trust me NVC people are nicer than VSC ppl .We can bother them all day . :P

I advice all PPl who got approved recently , SEND DS3032 by E mail (beneficiary) ASAP irrespective of whether case received at NVC. b/c by the time they open e mail they generate DS3032.(it takes 1-2 weeks to open their e mail)

I just called the NVC for the third time today and I spoke to a women who was having a really hard time comunicating in english so I started speaking spanish to her and she was super friendly but still :( no INN yet. She said it would be 2 to 4 weeks before I received anything.

I am staring to feel the despair again ( like when I was at VSC )

CHD, Please update spreadsheet with my victories!!!

IV bill paid as of Aug, 30

DS230 sent today (Sept, 3)

What a feeling when you get everything off !!!!

Of course I have my worries with me all the time while in that process ,about possible RFE's. Not everything I could get perfect, hoping (and praying) that they accept it the way it is.

I guess base on the random average from the day NVC get your case and when they generate the bills will last about 6 business days. I am in 5th one today so I won't have any lucks today and I might get them tomorrow.

Q: When you were informed that AOS bill was generated what time of the day it was?

Call the CS rep.

It is 4:30 EST right now and I talk to this lady that she said wait and wait. My question was about my change of embassy request but has not been processed yet. She said wait 4to6 weeks. That is all coming out of their mouth.

At the end she said have a good night:O it is 4:30 man, you can go back to sleep if you want. Made me wonder for a minute that if I called

Dell's cutomer service :D

Yep, you need your case number + IIN to pay your bills online (AOS, IV, At&t, Utility bills.etc.)
