Hello fellow members,

Just an additinal quick question pls. When i sent to NVC the AOS documents I also send the Document Cover sheet (payment for $70).

Now my question is:

When sending the DS-230

1. Do i need to send the Barcoded Cover sheet as well?

2. IF so which barcoded cover sheet should I send? the Barcoded sheet that i printed after paying the AOS ($70) or the the IV Fee Payment receipt of the $400 that I paid?

The IV Fee Payment receipt do not have the barcode? So should I send the Iv Fee Receipt of the $400?

Please help me as i am confused.Thank you very much.

Yes (IV Bill Cover Sheet)

2. IF so which barcoded cover sheet should I send? the Barcoded sheet that i printed after paying the AOS ($70) or the the IV Fee Payment receipt of the $400 that I paid?

The IV Fee Payment receipt do not have the barcode? So should I send the Iv Fee Receipt of the $400?

In sending DS-230, you have to print the IV Bill Cover Sheet with Barcode. Once it shows paid online, you can already print the Cover Sheet.

Please help me as i am confused.Thank you very much.

1. Do i need to send the Barcoded Cover sheet as well?

YES. After paying $400, the payment status changes to PAID and once the status is Paid then you can print the Document Cover Sheet and you need to send this with DS-230.

2. IF so which barcoded cover sheet should I send? the Barcoded sheet that i printed after paying the AOS ($70) or the the IV Fee Payment receipt of the $400 that I paid?

IF Fee Payment...after paying $400, the payment status changes to PAID and once the status is Paid then you can print the Document Cover Sheet and you need to send this with DS-230.

The IV Fee Payment receipt do not have the barcode? So should I send the Iv Fee Receipt of the $400?

After the payment status changes to PAID you will see a link for DOCUMENT COVER SHEET ( you need to print this one...same as how you did for I-864 ($70))

Hope this helps, Good Luck! THanks, Raj
