I have decided on a dress I want for our vow renewal ceremony http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?pa...amp;style=S5229

now I just gotta come up with money to buy it. I have a feeling I will take my own advice above and just charge it, what the heck, gotta be a little happy while we're alive

I want to put chocolate sash and the satin underneath will be more pearl-y, so the lace pops even more.

Anyway, I am excite about it so I figure I'd share that with ya

That's a beaitiful dress! and after all the trouble you deserve it!!

I have a question, it may be silly what are the packets 3 and 4? My husband and I are going to Mexico next week and we are planing to stay there til' the interview day, so we are wondering if we are suposed to recieve something more here in the States or if we are good to go after the case is complete with NVC?

From my understanding, packet 3 & 4 are actually AOS packet (3) and DS-230 packet (4).

"Back in the day" pple had to wait for the bar code sheet for AOS and IV to be sent to them, or they "forged" their own (see LinChe shortcuts, James' shortcuts).

They didn't have the luxury of email correspondence with NVC and online generated cover sheets like we do today

NOA 1 - packet 1

NOA2 - packet 2

AOS - packet 3

DS-230 -packet 4

So, no, there is noting else that you need to receive.

Have fun in Mexico!

Girly, sorry to hear that the dang car is giving you trouble now...

Finances are kicking my a** lately as well, but I have decided that it's just money, I am not the first nor last person in US in debt, you know- what charge it, and everything will take care of itself eventually

Wish I could. No credit cards. When my ex went to prison I lost over 70% of my income and it took awhile to get back on my feet so I only paid what had to be paid so lost the credit cards and my credit is so screwed I can't get new ones.

I am having a really complicated time w/ the aos packet because i decided to ask my parents to please joint sponsor my husband and finally after 3 months they have agreed....but problem is that my parents haven't filed for 2008 taxes yet and will be getting to that soon....they also say that they will file 2009 taxes next year...i think that is how it is done right?....because how can they file for 2009 when that financial year hasn't even completed yet. They can provide my mothers 6 months pay stubs, my fathers copies of checks and 2008,2007,2006 tax info. I forgot to explain about the employment letters but will ask about them today.....do you think that the employment letters are necessary? my mother is an lpn nurse and father is travel agent.......???

What is worrying me the most is that I have never needed to file taxes because i have never had a real job. I graduated, meaning i got my ged in early 2008 and since then still consider myself a student as i plan to start college once i get back to the states. I am freaking out about what sort of financial docs i should send....i basically have none as i have never filed taxes or had a job as mentioned above. Should i just fill out the i864 and have my parents fill out 1 i864a?(they wouldnt have to fill out two would they???) and just send my parents financial docs and not mine...as i have none? Any idea as to what I can do??

The questions:

- they will file 2009 taxes next year...i think that is how it is done right?because how can they file for 2009 when that financial year hasn't even completed yet.

- do you think that the employment letters are necessary? my mother is an lpn nurse and father is travel agent.......???

- Should i just fill out the i864 and have my parents fill out 1 i864a?(they wouldnt have to fill out two would they..they do joint taxes and grandma is dependant???) and just send my parents financial docs and not mine...as i have none?

Hey guys,

For ds-230, do we need to have barcode on that form, or does the barcode only go on the packet cover sheet?

I see this big ole empty box on top of DS-230 form, so that's throwing me off...

Please respond ASAP cause husband is about to sign tonight to send to me tomorrow, so I don't wanna make a mistake

Thanks so much!

Since you paid your IV fee online, the only place you need the barcode is on their cover sheet.

How many days does it take for NVC to review the AOS and DS-230 once they received it? and what are my chances of getting a case complete before 12th June - I believe NVC only schedule interviews 2nd of week of every month which sux

If we wouldn't have gotten an RFE, ours would have been 8 days. That includes a weekend also. You can check most people's timelines to get a good idea of an average wait. It seems like the usual average is about 7-10 days.
