Hi guys,

I sponsored my parents' as US citizen. I submitted the request to NVC for case expedite due to medical necessity. I have not heard from them for 3 weeks. However, I checked last week on CEAC website and both of the AOS fee and DS 260 available after I submitted DS-261. I also noticed that my parents' petitions are in transit to the consular section. I called the consulate at HCMC but the operator is clueless when I asked to make an interview appointment. I have 3 questions:

1. When can I pay for IV fee or my parents will pay it at the interview appointment?

2. Do I submit AOS documents and IV documents to the consulate or they will submit at the interview?

3. When can I make appointment for them?

Please give me tips and tricks on how to deal with HCMC consulate. Thank you so much.
