NVC Filers - June 2012

[Amenspanglish 5]

Oh no!! I should get my case number within a couple of weeks... Any thoughts? Do you happen to know more or less how long that stuff takes?

Why wouldn't the foreign exclusion forms work?

Google says that it should take at least a month!

But you rock Saylin, thanks for your help!

Well, you still have about 3 weeks until you get a case number. Then add on another week until you can actually send the AOS package. So, you have a month. If you send off your corrected tax return this week, it might be processed soon. Then you can request your tax transcript (usually takes a week to receive) or you can go directly to an IRS office and receive it the same day.

I called NVC and asked if they have processed an email from my wife with DS-3032 form and here's what I got in response: "NVC does not accept an email sent without attached scanned .pdf file for DS-3032 form signed by beneficiary. Since you sent only a plain email without any attachment, NVC won't accept it."

I used the template provided here on VJ.

What should I do now? Should I just sit and wait for NVC to respond with an acceptance or rejection of DS-3032 email sent out last week? Or should I re-send DS-3032 with attached in email and signed by my wife?

Payed my IV bill so excited!!!

Have one question I have spanish to english translations of wifes birth certifacte and marraige certifacte. they are a copy of the originals that i sent in for I-130 can i use them? will there be a problem if wife goes to interview with copy of translations?

Thanks again in advance

NVC Requires originals or certified copies of the originals (Certified by the Issuing Authority) . so

since you sent in an original with the I-130 -

do you have another original, or another certified copy? If so, yer golden for doc submittal with the DS-230.

Otherwise, wait a bit at NVC - then call in, ask for a supervisor, and then ask that the ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS that you have bundled with the I-130 be TAKEN OUT OF THE CASEFILE and put in to the DS-230 set. Expect a week lag after making this request, via telephone.

Good Luck !

Thanks a lot Saylin! Does operator have any rights to discard DS-3032 email or write a note in system to not accept this email when processed by the supervisor?

No. Operators have no rights, but do have a priviledge to p|ss you off with the wrong information.

What Does VisaJourney.Com Say about it? I'd pay more attention to that website, than 'The Google'.

Just Saying.

I'll rush ship my tax return tomorrow! Thanks again! Hopefully I'll get it soon!

The DS-3032 must be added to the casefile, else the IV Fee Bill won't be invoiced.

What's up?

around 6 business days, currently.

What was the 'status' of the AOS FEE BILL being received into the Petitioner's Email INBOX when you pushed the button?

I have this mantra - don't send the DS-3032 via email till the Petitioner has the AOS FEE BILL in their email INBOX - there's an internal switch at NVC - they ain't looking for the DS-3032 till that fee bill leaves their email server.

AOS was showing as "Not paid" and it was not invoiced when I sent DS-3032 email.

[Darnell 8,478]

no invoice? NVC is unaware.

Have AOS FEE BILL in the USCitizen's email inbox recently? great time to resend the ds-3032 email thingie (revisit the template link on the first post here)

[sunshine_84 11]

No, the operator can't access specific forms or emails that you've submitted. They can just see when things have been received and reviewed and such. They can put notes I assume, but your DS-3032 isn't processed by a supervisor. And it's not like they're going to put in "this person didn't include an attached DS-3032, don't accept it".

Thanks Saylin!

I think I should do it

Thanks Darnell!

it takes 5-10 business days for them to accept ds3032 then the following day they'll invoice your IV fee.. ours took 5 business days plus 2 days for thr weekend...hubby called them on the fourth day to check, the next day it was accepted.. better call them everyday and best time to call is 8am-9am est, no hold queue at all:)

We received our acceptance email for the DS-3032 today. We sent the email on the 8th; we did send the email template found here on VJ. So plain emails without scanned pdf files seem to be perfectly acceptable. I think we should be invoiced in a day or so.

After DS-260 is completed and submitted can you email your civil documents right after or do you have to wait for an email and or confirmation from a NVC operator that the DS-260 accepted. One more question when scanning original civil documents were they scanned in color or black&white.

thanks again in advance
