What is OPTIN?

OPTIN is for those doing EP (electronic processing). Only a few countries are eligible for this and to do EP, you need to send an optin email to a separate NVC email.

rofl.gif Nope, don't worry about it. Canada has a different process than other countries.

You can send the Choice of Agent form, but it won't be accepted until NVC is ready to receive it. When NVC sends out the initial information package to the petitioner and beneficiary, that's when you know they're ready to receive your Choice of Agent form.

As for me i've sent in my aos and iv on 03/17/11 i got a email from nvc and i called nvc because the email said that they received my aos and that something was missing or incomplete so was like "great here we go". so i called to see what was missing or wrong and they told me nothing it was just a way to send me a checklist of things for iv so i told them that i had already sent it 3 days after aos so they told me to forget about the email. so i felt better. but then on 03/19/11 i called nvc to see if they received my iv and avr said that on 03/18/11 a package was generated but that it was missing something or incomplete. does any one have a clue what is going on or has any had the samething happen?

The first was a false RFE for your DS-230. But if you got a second one, then that might be an actual RFE. Call an operator up on Monday and ask about it.
