When we sent our I130 in October, I joked with my husband I had a feeling it would be approved April 23rd. It's been our big joke for the last 6 month...but holy #######...it was approved yesterday APRIL 23rd!!

Now what? I am a bit confused...

Do I need to do anything right now other than start gathering my I864 info?

Should I be expecting anything from USCIS in the mail?

Just wait to hear from NVC?

How long should I expect to wait to hear from NVC? From what I see on other time lines it's about 2-3 weeks...sometimes less, sometimes more.

Will the NVC send an email or snail mail?

Then what? Just I-864 and DS260/261 and their fees?

Do you pay the fees BEFORE sending I-864 and DS-260?

You can pay for them both online, right?

Are priority dates really irrelevant to spouse?

How long do the I864 and DS260 take?

When they are approved do you get an interview date?

I probably missed a few questions I had floating around my head so any other advice is welcome.

Read through some of this thread, particularly Saylin's links in the first post: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/488577-nvc-filers-april-2014/

You will probably want to join the May thread once it gets going as it takes a while for your case to reach NVC and then to be entered in their system.
