Does anyone know the form to change address at NVC? They keep sending my mail to the wrong apt...need to have this corrected. I did a change of address at USCIS and NVC decided to go with the old address, ugh!

Try calling NVC and let them know you submitted the change at USCIS. They should be able to tell you how to change it for NVC.

We got our info from an operator. Good luck :thumbs:

MMW, am happy to know your case is now loaded in the NVC system. Praying for a speedy and hassle-free "CASE COMPLETE" for you. :)

Just wondering, has anyone received a mail after paying the AOS fee bill online? We got the AOS marked paid but a message says something about "APPLICANT NAME NOT FOUND" (petitioner paid) and yet my full name - married surname, first name and then maidne surname - appear in the cover sheet paper along with our NVC case number.

I looked at the receipt number and I don't recognize it. What does this mean????!!!!!!! We paid IV fee bill last night too, via petitioner.

Somebody tell me this is normal or I'm going to freak out.....

Now that I've sent off my AOS packet, I'm wondering did everyone include a letter from their employer? I didn't, my transcripts and return are pretty well above the poverty line and its been steady in the past. I really didn't want to involve my employer and have to let them know the immigration process my family is going through. I hope I dont get an RFE for that.

I am about to send my package and I am going to send a letter from my employer just in case. Like you, I am way above the poverty line and my income has been steady for the last couple of years but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Hopefully you will not get an RFE. Keep us posted!

I think everyone here sends a letter of employment whenever possible. We sent a letter from the Veterans' Affairs explaining petitioner's unemployment and pension status. :)

Just wasted a phone card checking if the AVR updated and it didn't. Didn't have enough to call again and try operator. But we got the Cover Sheets and receipt numbers for both the AOS and IV. Just waiting for something in the mail (any day now) and the IV package is off as well.

Does anyone have an idea how much it costs to overnight a package to NVC from a Far-eastern or Southeast-Asian country like Thailand or the Philippines? MailBoxesEtc. won't give the rates until after it's weighed. DHL? FedEx?

Hoping and praying for sonia and all of us!

Hi All,

we are really frustrated...Finally we got an RFE on DS 230 in AVR ... which says Missing/incomplete DS 230 after reviewing... I am almost crying...don't know what to do...No operators could tell us about the detail on the RFE as they are saying they are still reviewing our DS 230.... One of the operator also mentioned to disregard the RFE if we have already sent DS 230...then why is this RFE for?

Please need help guys, we called NVC several times....Good thing is they have already accepted our AOS packet...

Thank you.

Sonia

First, the AVR is unreliable. Keep following up your case with the NVC operators.

Second, review your copy of the DS-230. Check for any missing or incomplete items, either documents or form items.

Maybe you can itemize what you sent in the package here and someone could give a suggestion?

2.DS-230 Part 1 completed and signed by beneficiary

3.DS-230 Part 2 completed by beneficiary – unsigned, as of yet, per instruction

4.Photocopy of the Biographic Data Pages of Beneficiary’s New Passport
