Good luck to everyone in here. The wait can be long but it is worth it. Read everything at least five times and review everything at least 10 times before you send it out. Read the guides that are on here. They will help. And don't forget to help each other out. Sharing is caring and you sharing your ups and downs during this process will help you and others.

Okay Okay Okay Congratz congratz congratz, but now down to business... B-)

Here's Ling's NvC shortcut page:

Good stuff there

Have a question though about the original/certified documents:

I have the orig marriage cert, and my hubby's birth cert but I'm wondering if NVC sends these documents back to us after the process does anyone know?

Your original/certified documents should be returned to you after Interview, but if they are not, you can ask for them to be returned. My girl did not ask for the originals at her Interview Dec 09, case denied, and she did not get them back, so we had to have new certified ones made for the next interview.

Ha ha I just wrote you a comment on another thread lol!!! I say we start harassing tomorrow!!!! You with me???

Folks i filed back in April 5th and received NOA1 on April 15, nothing yet. I am hoping to hear the good news soon..

Once NVC receives the case number, how can i get this moving quick?

Does my spouse aboard needs to fill out anything? i am trying to prepare and save time here... How about DS-3032, can this be emailed? do i fill out the DS-230?

want to be prepared so things move quickly for me, any suggestions? so i can start collecting the documents.. Any advice would be appreciated.
