That's good to hear. I didnt receive my DS-3032 either but was emailed to my hubby, which he forwarded to me. I read and read for possibilities of me emailing the DS-3032 (even though I read it here that you can email it) but there were none.

So I posted it back along with the barcode to the NVC via snail mail because I didn't want risk anything to go wrong.

They received it just about the same time hubby submitted his I-864 which was just perfect timing! THEN after few days, they will bill you the IV fees.

GOOD LUCK...

Aaah... I got the DS3032 via snail mail today. Can you imagine! Good thing they sent hubby an electronic copy! Or we would have waited so long!

Thanks guys :) One more thing i want to ask which is What kind of Forms the beneficiary has to sign beside DS-230 and mail it to me ? I am asking because FEDEX charge good amount $$$ so i want him to sign all papers and send to me so i can send step by step to the NVC .

The DS230 has four pages, first two being Part I, which you sign (as posted earlier by other members). That is the only form required but you will need to submit civil documents such as birth certificate, marriage certificate, police (and or military) report(s), 2 passport size photos, copy biodata page of the beneficiary's valid passport.

Pls check for possible more country specific documents!
