When to email the choice of agent

[bleecker 0]

Can I send the choice of agent email even though the system still shows" no record of this case .. " ? I spoke to an operator and was told that the choice of agent and bill have been generated few days ago. Thank you for your advice.

what is the email address for Choice of Agent?

Use Gmail account to email, if possible. People have had success with receiving automated reply using gmail account.

I sent email this morning using Verizon.net email (My ISP). I still did not get any automated reply yet.

email address: NVCINQUIRY@state.gov

Hopefully this will work out. Thank you all for your advice.

send another one using gmail account and make sure you get an automated reply. Peace of mind. Also, see if your wife can fill this form out, scan and send it to you. Then you can print this form and also send it by express mail to NVC. Sometimes, mail is faster than they getting to your email. I am not at that point yet but have read people sending scanned/printed copies successfully.

I created another gmail account, i will try to send it at another time. I have received the Choice of agent form signed, i just need to generate the barcode and send it.

Thank you for your advice

I just don't understand why they have 2006 version... Just worried that if you don 't received an automated response, then the last choice would be just sending to NVC through a snail mail.... but, why there form has expiration of 2006?

The form says 2006 but dont worry its the correct one (confusing I know!)

I know of a few people who had to send the email quite a few times before they got an auto response.

For peace of mind you may wish to send by email and in the post, thats what I did

Hi everybody,

I found this in LingChe Guide:

DS-3032

The DS-3032 AKA Choice of Agent, is the form that indicates who will pay the bills and accept other documents from NVC.

Once all documents are fully loaded in, the AVR message MIGHT change.

Operators will be able to tell you if the DS-3032 has been generated.

If the DS-3032 has been generated, you can email it (See the WIKI for address and format) or use the instructions at the top of this guide to create your own barcode cover-sheet.

Attempts to send DS-3032 via email may or may not receive an automated response...but the automated response does not mean it's been accepted.

Due to SPAM filters at NVC, if you do not get an automated response immediately, either switch to a different email account or mail the DS-3032.

Once accepted, you will get an email message...or you can confirm with operator.

Attempts to mail or email DS-3032 before it's been generated are useless. It's like trying to pay a water bill for a house that hasn't been built yet.

The auto response email just means that they accepted your email. It doesn't mean they can do anything with it.

It’s a good idea to mail AND email the DS-3032

I recommend everyone to MAIL and EMAIL the DS-3032. The hard copy (mail) is usually processed faster then an e-mail. It took the NVC 10 days to answer my e-mail and enter the DS-3032 in the system.
