Hello my dear VJ friends,

I have a question? Currently, I have my DS-230 packet ready to send out to NVC except the police certificate.

The followings are the contents of my DS-230, please let me know if I missed anything.

(1) Printed Cover Sheet & DS-230

(2) Our Marriage Certificate (Original with translation)

(3) Beneficiary’s Birth Certificate (Original with translation)

(4) Beneficiary’s Passport Photos (2 photos to accompany the DS-230 & 2 photos to accompany the medical)

(5) Beneficiary’s Passport Biographic Page (Photocopy)

(6) 1 affidavit & 10 wedding photos printed on 1 photo sheet (I need to include wedding photos cause I did not have it in the I-130 packet. My I-130 packet only contain the barely minimum requirement and nothing else whatsoever)

Now, my question is this…can I go ahead and send out this DS-230 packet while I’m waiting for the police certificate from the beneficiary? Is this save me time? What do you folks think? I figure, I’ll send the police certificate once I’ve got it. I do not want to waste any time while waiting for the police certificate (2-3 weeks).

Once again, please let me know if I missed anything.

Thank you in advance for your help!

As far as my understanding, you do not need to send the photos or afadavit... Those you will bring along with your other evidence to the interview.. If you got through USCIS then there was enough initial evidence to warrent further processing, the rest will be the discretion of the consulate....

You only need to send (2) photos, the other 2 you will bring to the medical

Assuming that neither of you have been married before then your documents (other than missing the PCC) sound correct...

As far as mailing it without the PCC, yes you can, you know that you will get the RFE, then just send it ASAP so you can continue with the processing....

Thank you very much, christeen! I guess I'll mailed out rather than wait for the PCC. As for the relationship proof and such I guess I'll let the beneficiary take that to the interview when the time come cause I have absolutely no proof whatsoever in my I130 packet.

Once again, thanks for your help, christeen!

Hello my dear VJ friends,

I have a question? Currently, I have my DS-230 packet ready to send out to NVC except the police certificate.

The followings are the contents of my DS-230, please let me know if I missed anything.

(1) Printed Cover Sheet & DS-230

(2) Our Marriage Certificate (Original with translation)

(3) Beneficiary’s Birth Certificate (Original with translation)

(4) Beneficiary’s Passport Photos (2 photos to accompany the DS-230 & 2 photos to accompany the medical)

(5) Beneficiary’s Passport Biographic Page (Photocopy)

(6) 1 affidavit & 10 wedding photos printed on 1 photo sheet (I need to include wedding photos cause I did not have it in the I-130 packet. My I-130 packet only contain the barely minimum requirement and nothing else whatsoever)

Now, my question is this…can I go ahead and send out this DS-230 packet while I’m waiting for the police certificate from the beneficiary? Is this save me time? What do you folks think? I figure, I’ll send the police certificate once I’ve got it. I do not want to waste any time while waiting for the police certificate (2-3 weeks).

Once again, please let me know if I missed anything.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Yes you can send your DS230 witout PCC but wait for the RFE. Goodluck!

Wait for RFE? Why can I send it right away once receive it?

Oh, of course you can, but in case they process the paperwork before you get it... I remember you saying it might take a while... But if you get it, then yes, you can send it, just be sure to include a letter describing what it is for, case # and other pertinent information so they do not just receive it out of the blue and it gets lost....

Thank you in advance for your help!

I think you also need to send the USC birth certificate (original)

Well, per DS-230 instructions it doesn't mention that USC bc part.

Thank you for your help, christeen! I'd greatly appreciated. I will remove the 2 passport photos, affidavit & 10 wedding photos out from the packet and send the rest out.

it would be better if you wait to enclose the pcc with this package,cos sometimes rfe delay cases.

and good luck anyway

Hmmm... I think you might have a good point there, paradiselost! Maybe I should wait for the pcc first because the RFE may delay the case.

Okay, let me think about it and in the meantime I'll wait and hold on the DS-230 packet. I wish I get some feedback from those who already in the same situation as I am.

Thank you for your help, paradiselost!
