What should be done after IV FEE Bill Generation

[rajkumar_cool 0]

Hi Everybody,

I am PR filed I 130 for spouse and I paid AOS Fee and send DS 3032 which is processed already. I called last night and NVC represantative told me they generated IV BILL and I864 package on sept 9, '08. So what should I do now? I was thinking to pay my IV BILL before I receive the letter. Is it good to pay if so do I have to call them and get new IIN #, Is it same IIN # as of AOS fee bill. and what amount should I pay? How long it normally takes to receive letter after it is generated.

And can I save time getting the signed copy of DS 230 now from my spouse who is abroad? If I can does the DS 230 can be black & white copy or it needs to print in color one? And what other doccuments should I get from abroad to save time. Please help me!

I will be very thankful to all of you. Your help will be highly appreciated.

1) Yes you can pay your IV bill online, it will cost you $400. (once you log on to the site, you will see IV bill being mentioned)

2) IIN number doesn't change, its the same

3) Once paid IV bill wait for a couple of days till it shows being PAID on the payment website, take the print out of BAR code cover sheet and send it along with DS-230 package

4) It usually takes anywhere from 4 weeks to 8 weeks to receive letter from NVC, we paid online and we received after 8 weeks, but don't wait for package from NVC if you are paying online. That's the whole motto of online payment, to make things go faster.

5) Do get DS-230 from your wife, DS-230 should be printed in black ink and of good print quality on 8 1/2" x 11" 20-22 lb white paper.

Also ask your wife to get her PCC so that she can send those along with her signed PART 1 DS-230 and Unsigned PART 2 DS-230. She will also need to provide her Original or Certified birth certificate, your marriage certificate, divorce certificate if applicable.

Best of luck

Hi Silent

Thanks alot for your reply. I am little confused what is PCC means in ur reply.

And I am little confused about filling I864. If The income is enough to cover the sponsor requirement..... do I still haveto fill my Asset(ie bank balance) figure and provide them the statement or what should I do.?

For the I-864, you don't have to fill out any of the assets part if you will not be using them to meet the income requirement. They're optional, so if you don't need them, don't fill it out.

Thanks wowshift,

I paid IV BILL online just now and I had given my email to send me the receipt and I received automated email saying PRINCIPAL APPLICANT NAME NOT FOUND. I am a petitioner.... do beneficiary need to make payment? why does it says Principal Applicant Name not found? When I log in with case # & IIN .. pmt. status shows IN PROCESS. I m just worried if I did something wrong.

Thanks

Don't worry about it. Mine said that too. Click the actual receipt (it should be in a .pdf attachment in the email) and it should have the names there. It should change to paid after a couple days.

PCC is police clearance certificate. Your spouse will need it while submitting DS-230 package. She will need to get PCC from both her local police station and from passport office. I can't give much detail about how to acquire it because PCC is usually country specific, so may be you can ask about it at regional South Asia forum.

Hi Silent,

Thanks for your reply. I saw somewhere in South Asia forum....PCC from passport office is needed in the case of if the passport taken is less than six months. Do you know if this is correct.?

[trinket 30]

You will need one PCC from Police station which is compulsory and another one is from Passport office. A beneficiary isn't needed PCC from passport office IF his/her passport is less than 6 months old, but if its more than 6 months old then he/she has to get that PCC from passport office too.
