After NVC to Kingston Embassy..Please help on next steps

[Bishop 6]

Hello Visa Journey Family,

First let me Thank God, he truley is amazing!

My excitement is contained saving it until later. Just got off the phone with NVC, the lady asked me a few questions, my case number, the name and birthdate of the petitioner and beneficiary. Then I asked her for my case number. She then says I am lucky they just finished entering my information into the system. She said she was able to ask me those questions because the information was in the system. So I have my KGN number, she asked for my email address and said it takes about 5 days for the file to reach Kingston call back in 5 days.

I recall reading several weeks back that I can email the embassy in Kingston and ask for pack 3 & 4 to be emailed? Is that still the case, if yes, can I do that now or after my file is sent to Kingston? Who completes the DS230 form that's now available online?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanking you in advance.

Get your invoice number from NVC, CLICK ON THE DS-260 link and complete the form. Yu will not get anything from Kingston until they receive your file. A that time you will email them letting them now the form is completed and then make your request.

Attention New Immigrant Visa Applicants

Effective September 1, 2013, the DS-260 Online Immigrant Visa Application & Registration will replace Form DS-230.

Applicants can access the new form at the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC) Web site OR at ImmigrantVisas.state.gov.

From the main page on ImmigrantVisas.state.gov, you will click on Submit Visa Application and Civil Documents. It will bring you to a new page. Scroll down to Complete and Submit Application for Immigrant Visa then click Online Forms, DS-260.

Enter your Case Number and Invoice ID Number (the National Visa Center will have already provided you with these numbers) to access the form and complete online.

Ensure that all questions are answered correctly to prevent delays in the processing of your application. Once complete, submit the application by clicking Sign and Submit. You will not be able to access the application again. Print out the confirmation letter.

When you have completed the form, inform the Embassy via e-mail at kingstoniv@state.gov and put the following information in the subject line:

DS-260 COMPLETE: SURNAME, FIRST NAME, MIDDLE NAME, CASE NUMBER.

Example: DS-260 COMPLETE: MANLEY, MICHAEL BERNARD, KNG2000100100.

Bring your confirmation sheet to the interview, but do not bring your application form.

For further assistance access www.travel.state.gov: Online Immigrant Visa Forms: DS-260 FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) or http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_5164.html

Please note: The DS-260 is not required for cases that are already in process at the National Visa Center (NVC), including cases where application documents were submitted, but an interview has not been scheduled.

We will not require the submission of a DS-260 if a valid, signed, unexpired DS-230 is already on file.

For petitioners, who filed an I-130 at USCIS Santo Domingo prior to September 1, and the beneficiary has already submitted a DS-230 or received instructions to do so, we will still accept the DS-230. In all other cases, we will require the new DS-260.
