Okay, just got our I-130 approved today...

Am wondering, while we wait for our NVC number to be generated.

How will we know once it has? Will they call/mail/let us know? Should we call? Can both the petitioner and the beneficiary call? The USCIS only allowed the petitioner to call.

Once it's been generated, what will be first?

The NVC 'generates'' the DS 3032, CHoice of agent form, does it get mailed to me? Only the beneficiary?

And the AOS does it get sent to the Petitioner? DO these things happen in tandem or one after the other as a consequence of...

I pretty much have a bead on most things but some of the terminology throws me -- it's always the simple things.

Thank you all,

I'll get it all soon.

:D

Call and use the AVR. Enter your USCIS case number. When NVC has entered your case into the system it will change from "We have no record of this case..." to "NVC has assigned a case number..."

Can both the petitioner and the beneficiary call? The USCIS only allowed the petitioner to call.

Both can call.

Once it's been generated, what will be first?

The DS-3032 will be first, then the AOS fee bill. Should be the same day.

The NVC 'generates'' the DS 3032, CHoice of agent form, does it get mailed to me? Only the beneficiary?

And the AOS does it get sent to the Petitioner?

If you give them both of your email addresses you will both receive everything.

DO these things happen in tandem or one after the other as a consequence of...

Much obliged imaisha...

AVR would be automatic voice response, I assume.

And DAMN, I was just getting used to the USCIS and how that works.

Thanks again.

Thanks a lot you guys. If NVC is better than USCIS, then rocking. But I DO have to give some Kudos to them... they weren't so bad with us at all. I'd be remiss to mention that we had no issues with them and they, none with us.

Thanks you guys.

You'll be hearing from me again, that's for sure.

Best,

LGG
