The DS-260 is done online, so you don't submit anything else, obviously.

But you still have to submit the supporting documents for the IV package. Either before or after you complete the DS-260, you have to send the IV package with the following documents:

-bar-coded cover sheet from payment portal

-cover letter (optional)

-2 passport pictures with full name, date of birth, and case number written on the back of each

-copy of bio-data page of beneficiary's passport

-original/certified copy of birth certificate

-original/certified copy of marriage certificate

-original police certificate

Yes, I know you're doing EP as it's required for Mexico. I did EP myself

According to this page http://travel.state.gov/visa/fees/fees_5455.html?cid=9684 police records aren't available for Mexico, so I guess you don't need them after all. If you did though, the beneficiary wouldn't need any from the US as they do their own national background checks.

And do you mean the timeline people have in their signatures?

I'd ask in the Mexico sub-forum about police certificates there. They'll obviously know more than I would.

And you have to make your own signature. There's not just one button to press and your timeline will appear. You write it yourself. To add: go to the top of the page, on the right, and next to your avatar, click 'Settings'. Then click on the 'Profile' tab and then the 'Change Signature' tab on the left. Then just enter your timeline and it'll appear as your signature

And as you said in the PM, yes, EP = Electronic Processing.

You have to EMAIL both packages. You're required to do EP for Mexico, so you can't snail mail anything in. Everything has to be by email.
