DS 260 Process! Urgent!

[Cri&Domy 0]

Hello,

I am very confused about the DS 260. I submitted the form, but it then says:

1. If your case is NOT processing electronically, please submit your documents to:
   National Visa Center
   Attn: CMR/DR
   31 Rochester Ave. Suite 100
   Portsmouth, NH 03801-2914
   
   If your case IS processing electronically, please scan and email your documents to:
   NVCElectronic@state.gov

How do I know if my case is processing electronically or not?

Do I need to send ALL documents? If so, where do I send them? to the Email or to the actual address in NH?

Please let me know what to do to proceed. In packet 3 it says to hold on to all documents and not to send them.

Thank you so much.

note: consulate in Naples, Italy

THIS IS THE PROCESS FOR KINGSTON. I WOULD THINK THAT IT WOULD BE THE SAME FOR OTHER EMBASSIES. YOU WOULD REPLACE THE KINGSTON EMAIL ADDRESS WTH YOUR OWN EMBASSY EMAIL ADDRESS:

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.
