Hi everyone,

Our I-130 was approved (yay!) and we are ready to move to the NVC state. I see from the step-by-step guide (http://www.visajourney.com/content/i130guide1) that we will receive the NOA2 officially in the mail, which I haven't yet. I've only been checking via USCIS website. I wanted to know a few things:

- The guide says a packet will be sent. it this literally a bunch of forms sent to my husband in Egypt?

- Does he send them directly from Egypt to NVC in the US?

- Is anything completed online?

Thanks!

I think it is kind of confusing too :-( No, your husband does not get anything you will have to submit documents to NVC.

- Does he send them directly from Egypt to NVC in the US?

You the petitioner is the one who will have to send documents and pay fees to NVC

- Is anything completed online?

Look at this guide for steps at NVC after your I-130 petition has been approved at USCIS:

Congratulations on your approval!!!!

Thanks for your response, but Im still a little confused. After I get my case number and IIN, where do I fill out all the paper work? Online? Or, do they send it to me and I fill it out?
