make sure he also gets the Invoice Identification Number because that's needed to pay for the AOS and IV bills online.

if you already have the ds3032 filled out ready to go then go ahead and email it. if it is received then they will also let you know through email and AVR. :thumbs:

But it has a place to attach a barcode at the top of the form. You don't need to attach it?

I'm really sorry about this. I was really hopeful and I had assumed it would be automatic that you'd have it by the time you had to leave.

The lack of communication and attention during this step in the process is terrible but completely unacceptable once you've hit their deadline. Fine, it's late, but why and when, tell us something!

Hang in there, I am sure you will get it soon.

I just wanted to check in to see how everyone's doing with their timeline and wish everyone all the best with their cases. Hope every last person in here gets their NOA2 very soon!

But it has a place to attach a barcode at the top of the form. You don't need to attach it?

I believe you do. You can create the barcode at idgen and paste it in the appropriate space, or e-mail the DS-3032 (from beneficiary).

Oh the joys of secondary. Although it's a little weird you got sent to secondary as a USC coming back into the US. Unless I'm completely missing something..which is probably likely. :P
