i was reading through the NVC online payment...and it says on there that the payment has to be through e-check payment. i was wondering, when it times come for me to start paying the fees online, does the bank account have to be my bank account? or can it be another person's checking account? the reason why i ask is because when it comes time to pay the AOS and the IV fees, my parents agreed to help me out by loaning the fees to me. but it would be too cumbersome to have the money be given to me and deposited in my own account. was thinking it would just be easier to pay by entering their bank information for the payment.

I started calling about 3-4 days.. the funny part was that I checked on a friday night around 9pm and nothing! so when I checked saturday morning it was entered into the system and I got my number. It was done very late at night!! It wont be long, in the meanwhile get all the documents you will need, that will keep you busy!

Best of luck and hope it's a quick one!

Pay attention, non-EP NVC noobs. Here's Christeen's time tested formula to get you through NVC in one piece alive: Petitioner: Get NVC # + give operator your email IDs + receive AOS fee bill + pay 70

Pay the $404 and wait for it to clear. Once it does, print the barcoded letter and send both your packets in.

@msd...i know i should take it easy for a couple days. but im just so anxious!..lol. actually, im just reading up on everything i can so i have an idea of what to do when the time comes.

@mamamimi...i was talking to the wife last night and i told her to get all clearances (police etc. etc.) ready. she said that for those, she'll have to wait because those clearance certificates have an expiration date. but she will get copies of all bc's and our marriage certificate this week. my oldest son's bc takes at least a week because of the changes that needed to be made a few years ago. she already has pictures and letters ready. not sure some of these will even be asked from her because we've been married for 10 years and have two kids already...but you can never be too sure, right? maybe i'll call around the same time you did...on a weekend.

thanks and good luck to you and everyone in the august bracket. hoping things go quick for all of us!!

TravellingNomad- The pics and letters will come in handy for the interview stage but aren't asked for during NVC. Did you send in your original marriage certificate to USCIS? Most countries clearances expire in 6 months from issue. You should be fine if that is the case. :thumbs: Good luck with everything!

C'mon more good news from the NVC!!!! Make today a good middle of the week day! :dance:

OMG I am finally done!! going over everything with my co-worker just to make sure nothing is missing!

On I-864 do I staple the bar coded sheet to the application?

Writing NVC number on right hand corner of all documents submitted (DS-230 as well)

Copies?? a complete set of I-864 for NVC or no copies needed here

DS-230 made copies of all original documents my husband sent me (birth, marriage, background certificates and translations) copies of anything else?

I can't wait to mail this away today!

Also....

On mailing envelope do I put anything specific? just their address as written on the bar coded sheet correct? :bonk:

Thank you after all of this I will leave all alone for a while!! :rofl:

DONE HEY, Thats what you think ... Your never done its like going down the rabbit hole... :rofl::hehe:

Seriously, I only stapled docs that were intended to be together. Page 2 of 2 kind of thing. I also used a binder clip to put the whole package together. Yes I put NVC number in Upper RH corner of each page of all documents. I made copies of all documents that I wanted them to return to me. Originals. The rest I didnt make copies of. Just make sure you have copies of everything and your significant other. I just scanned all of mine and email them to her.

YEap just the address as noted on your Barcode page.

Hey guys, just wanted to say hi to y'all.

It seems almost everyone else on the "waiting for case complete" thread got their September interview, except me. We called NVC last night and they just said no interview was appointed yet. I don't understand :(

I hope your cases get processed quickly!

Congrats Alan!

rentavivi- You could always try calling NVC tomorrow and see what a live person has to say about it. It is hit or miss with them though. I hope they approve it soon so that you can keep moving on with your case!
