Thanks, my case does say "Post Decision Activity" so that means it is already at NVC, will I get to track my case there, in terms of activity?

Sorry there must be tons of threads on this

I was wondering after getting my NOA-2, what is next with the NVC.

For the affidavit of support, I have a family friend that is going to be my sponsor, what all do I need to get from him? Just last 3 years of his IRS Tax Return (1040) or do I need anything else from him? Would highly appreciate someone's help on this.

Also when they send out the form (I think DS-3032) do they send it to both petitioner and beneficiary? So me being the petitioner, if I turn it in, meaning I would be the choice of agent right?

Last question, does the NVC need my wifes police record, will they ask for it? Also I have read that they want birth certificate, marriage certificate, wouldn't they get all that from the USCIS? What else should I get prepared for the NVC?

Thank You guys a lot in advance, highly appreciate the help.

DS3032 is no longer applicable DS 261 is being used now for the same purpose. Also, I believe DS 261 is filled in by the benificiery and yes they can appoint you (petitioner) as their choice of agent.

A Police certificate is no longer required from Pakistan :)

Congratulations! I entered your NOA2 in the spreadsheet. Until your approval CSC was moving the fastest, at about 10 days average from transfer to NOA2, but it seems things are slowing down because yours took 22 days. NSC is about 17 days average. As for TSC, no approvals yet...

Correction: I entered your NOA2 as today instead of 11/14 as you stated, so yours took 21 days.
