Hey cscrum,

I did something similar with my AOS and it was fine. They reviewed my second package first, though and I got a checklist that said the documents from my first AOS package was missing, but the next day they reviewed the first package and they said to ignore the checklist. AOS accepted :-)

Sorry, me again!

Did you send JUST the missing documents or a whole new AOS?

Thanks!

I've been thinking this as I followed this thread lately, too. There's so much negativity here recently and much of it comes from obsessive phone calls with long wait times and less-than-charming oper

No worries! I sent the AOS barcode sheet from the original package, a cover sheet that I made saying what documents were included and that they were corrected because I made a mistake, and the corrected documents with supporting evidence. In this case it was the I-864 for my joint sponsor that hade the error, so I sent the corrected form with the tax transcripts for 2013, 2012, and 2011 and another copy of his birth certificate. I did not send my I-864 again, my tax transcripts, or my supporting documents for domicile and that is what my AOS checklist was for BUT the checklist was resolved the next day. :) Hope that makes sense! :)

Hi everyone!

I am new and I filed a petition for my spouse as well. I am a little confused with the process, I already paid the AOS fee and it shows as completed. Do I now need to send the all documents to the NVC? My hubby just sent it to me yesterday so it should be arriving today or tomorrow the latest. Once I send the documents is this when I will receive an invoice to pay the visa fee? I feel like I am ALMOST THERE and is very exciting. Also one last question, I did the DS-261 as well and I got the confirmation number, when will I be able to do the DS-260 or DS-230 and do I send the visa application and the forms with all the documents too? Or those are done online?

Not sure where you read that, but that's wrong :no: Please read post 1, pay particular attention to the NVC process wiki I wrote, linked both in post 1 as well as in my signature (and of course can always be found listed under the wiki tab).
