Submitting documents to NVC as 'ONE package'

[RobbieG 94]

As long as they get the package delivered to the correct address they don't care how it gets there really.

You will be fine, just double check the specifics like address, etc. Everything will be fine!

Hi Ryan,

I am at the same place as you, our AOS has appeared as Paid but no option for the IV fee yet. I'll follow your time line to see how you get on :-)

FYI, I eventually got the option to pay the IV fee ($325) before I submitted my AOS (but after AOS was paid).

Just another data point...

I sent the AOS and IV packets in separate envelopes within the same package. Since I hadn't paid the IV fee I used the AOS cover sheet and wrote IV Package on it for the civil docs. It arrived at NVC on Thursday Oct 2. Coincidentally or not I was invoiced the IV fee on Friday Oct 3. The IV cover sheet has the same bar code on it as the AOS cover sheet.

This is what I'm doing... two envelopes in one package. Basically what I would have sent in individually with their respective cover sheets.

Whats going on here?.......I paid my AOS bill fee since Jan. 13. still waiting for the IV bill to be invoiced.....Is any VJ member in my shoes?

Wait to DS261 be reviewed...it takes up to 30 days. Then IV fee will be invoiced.

Oh My God.....I thought it's just 14 days as some members said. Any way no choice. but we are really tired of this waiting waiting

looks like this thread came back from the dead, so I'll give an update.

I submitted both AOS and IV Package at the same time after I paid the AOS fee but before the IV Fee was invoiced. The IV was invoiced a few days after the packages arrived and eventually I got case closed about 60 days later. Interview was yesterday. Seems all is good but he told my wife that he would need to review my AOS in more detail, but at first glance it seemed fine (I'm living abroad and using assets so I had to submit a lot of supporting documents and argue domicile)

As Frips said, do not wait for the NVC to review your DS-261. Just call them (after they will reopen, of course) and they will review it over the phone. This is what I did.

Frips how do NVC review the DS-261 by phone? I called and the only question he asked was: Who is the agent on the form? and I said my self. And he asked my DOB, and I told him. and he said that is it: And that the IV Bill will be generated in 7 days. Is that right????

Nyala, this is exactly what happened to me. I asked them when IV invoice will be billed to me. DS-261 needs to be reviewed for the bill to be issued and if I am an agent, they can review it right away. They asked my birth date (since I was an agent), stated the DS-261 was reviewed and I will receive a bill within 4-7 days. I have received it in 4 days.

Ok thank you OlenkaKyiv. I think I will be free and wait to pay my IV bill during my 60 day review.

[Frips 166]

You are ok.... IV fee will be invoiced in couple of days....
