DS 230

[Gomida1 0]

I had a question regarding the ds230 1 & 2 process. I have paid the IV fee and I am ready to send the application along with the documents. I was wondering if I have to write the nvc case number on each document like I had to when I sent the I-864 along with the tax transcripts, employment letter, w-2 forms, etc...?

Also, when I send the original and photocopied documents along with the application, since the nvc will have it my son (beneficiary) will not need to bring it to the interview since they will already have it? I'm talking about documents such as birth and police certificates, copy of passport, passport size photos, etc.. Thanks again.

Hi,

Yes you should write the case number on each piece of paper. For originals (like the birth certificate) you should not, you can use a post it on them if you like.

For your second question, yes, they will have all of your paperwork at the consulate and they should return applicable originals at that point as well (ie the birth certificate - but not the police certificate).
