NEED SOME GUIDANCE

[Nyosh 5]

Hi guys, im posting in this forum because im helping out a friend.

My questions are:-

Does the petitioner have to wait for the IV packet from NVC?

The beneficiary has a child, will she prepare the DS-230 for the child too, who is supposed to sign it?

Is the petitioner supposed to send original documents like the police clearance, marriage certificate and birth certificates, or should they be certified.

Then does the petitioner have to wait for NVC to send the package or he can just send it after the AOS bill appears paid online.

Here is a check list of what the petitioner is preparing to send for the AOS packet:-

I-864

IRS transcripts for 2008,2009,2010

Letter of employment

Pay stubs for the last six months

Bar coded cover sheet

Will it affect the process if the petitioner and the beneficiary did not file joint taxes together?

Thank you so much for your help. Wish you well with your journey.

No, the petitioner does not have to wait for any NVC packets. I highly recommend reading this guide by PatiencePaidOff. By understanding the process and by being proactive, one can drastically reduce the processing time.

The beneficiary has a child, will she prepare the DS-230 for the child too, who is supposed to sign it?

The biologic parent can sign for the minor beneficiary. Parent can sign his/her name, then place "signed on behalf of minor child" in parenthesis. Wording need not be exact. But something to that effect is helpful.

Is the petitioner supposed to send original documents like the police clearance, marriage certificate and birth certificates, or should they be certified.

Again, please refer to this guide. NVC requires original documentation, as well as copies of each original.

Then does the petitioner have to wait for NVC to send the package or he can just send it after the AOS bill appears paid online.

No, the petitioner does not have to wait. Once the status shows "PAID," print the barcode sheet and send ALL required documentation.

Your AOS packet looks good.

Will it affect the process if the petitioner and the beneficiary did not file joint taxes together?

No, it should not affect the process.

Hope this helps you some. Good luck with your journey!
