Correct me if I am wrong, but there is nothing in the IV package that has to be signed by the petitioner, so yes, it would make more sense to me for the beneficiary to send in the IV package, directly from his or her home country.

From NVC's prospective it does not matter who sends IV package.

I also recommend to have petitioner in USA contact local senator to get your case pushed at CSC. Try to be proactive at this point otherwise your case may remain in zombie state. Good luck! :thumbs:

Assuming everything goes well, I would estimate it to take about 4 more months from your NOA2 date until the Visa is issued. It may be less, or more, but this what the general average seems to be.

Its better if add ur spouse name to ur passport, bec my cousin's wife was asked at the interview for her visa in mumbai, why she didn't put her spouse name in passport, where it says pati ya patni ka naam in indian passport.

yes, my husband added my name to his passport after we got married. he lives in mehsana. Now i'm just waiting for his I130 approval letter. hope to get that soon.
