$404 paid. Now what?

[padoo289 0]

Hi,

So I just paid $404 and received an email titled "Receipt for IV Case." I know the next step is sending in a DS-230 packet. But where is the instruction. Where can I find what to be included in the packet besides the DS-230 form. Will NVC inform me about this? I'm so confused and behind. Please help. Thanks.

Just wait, you should received a letter from NVC with the checkilist.

I will? Do they mail the checklist to me (the agent) or email? Just pay $88 and $404 and wait, that's fine right? I'm frustrated. Can I do something while I wait?

Within a couple of days you'll receive the email with the information you need.

I never received an email, actually, I just did, after sending the IV package, but it doesn't list what you're supposed to send.

Look at the guides here, they are accurate.

All the instructions are online: on the receipt page for the IV fee, there's a button which says "instructions". It takes you to a page where you have more details about the process.

I did not find it as helpful as the guides on this website though.

We are at this stage aswell and have no recieved any real "instructions" from the NVC on what to do next, we have been calling them and asking and they have said they are now waiting on the two sets of paperwork! They provided me with a website link in the email they sent me once the fees were paid though so have a quick look through your email and you should find it in there somewhere!

Also we have everything together but in some places i have read i need to send original forms and in some it states not to send originals. Does anyone know what the correct process is (we cant seem to get through to the option of speaking to an operator when we call the NVC anymore)?

USArmy... this seemed exceptionally clear to me ->

but that's part of the first link I provided.

What's up with clicking links, reading content?

If yer not on a PC, please get on a PC, sometime soonish? Reading VJ via a handphone is sometime problematic, for 'finding more info'.

I was reading on all the documents required to be submitted to the NVC... It states that you have to send the originals or certified copies... my confusion is... all these documents can be sent by e-mail as PDFs once you enroll in the EP?

thanks!

Thank you all so much for the comments. I will follow the link provided here and start gathering all the documents we need. Now the question is do I need to wait until NVC send us the instruction email to send the package in?

EP is not available for Nicaragua, documentation in your case will have to be sent to the NVC using snail mail.
