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.

Hello people! :)

I just read ALL 32 PAGES :wacko: and I want to say/ask a couple of things! :)

First, congratulations TomD, Emilly, Teya and everyone else that I couldn't remember! :dance: Thank you for sharing ur experience so we, who follow you, know what to do! :rolleyes:

My question is - since we have an attorney (a very slow and not very helpful one) and from what I've read on VJ we are not going to have to file the DS-3032, do we just receive the AOS bill?? Or do we wait for a confirmation that we have an agent assigned automatically?

Your lawyer is automatically assigned as the agent--therefore, you will receive both AOS and IV bills together. Pay it, wait for it to be processed, once you can print out the bar-coded cover-sheet, print it out and sent your packets in.

Scratch my ray of hope for today. Another weekend will see me wondering. :angry:

Well, March started out as only March until we became so popular that some Aprilers joined in and then people from other months have popped up. Tom- We will never perish! :P You can blame the length of the March thread on me for typing a lot and USCIS. More on USCIS not approving people in a nice quick 3 month manner. :wacko:

Your lawyer is automatically assigned as the agent--therefore, you will receive both AOS and IV bills together. Pay it, wait for it to be processed, once you can print out the bar-coded cover-sheet, print it out and sent your packets in.

Thank you for clearing that one out! :thumbs:

Teya, I would much rather do it on our own form here, but hubby feels "better" :P with the lawyer, so I kinda play along... Good thing is we are not paying him so we r not really loosing money! And cos of the PRO BONO part, he is not always quick with his responses... :no: But thank you! :thumbs:
