You guys will not get transferred cause your files are going/went to the service centers directly from the Lockbox. So it's Lockbox-> Service Center That's the way it used to be up until August 2

faisal,

you only need to send copies now to the nvc. they do not want originals. you must bring originals to the interview.

as for sponsor, do a search in the "google custom search" box (upper right hand part the of the screen just below the sign out box) type in key words of what you need to know for the sponsor. also Saylin gives some good suggestions in her wiki about tips for sponsors. I would provide a cover letter as she suggests and be very careful everything in the i 864 is marked, checked off, etc for you and your wife and for the sponsor.

there are lots of sample forms here and on other websites for you look at to help you. there is a tab at the top of this page called "example forms" this is a good place to start.

I wish I could provide more info but I did not need a sponsor.

and as a last resort, pm others who did, i bet they would help you.

good luck my friend!!!
