NVC is having issues with their online system. Even if they send you welcome letter you won't be able to login unlike before where you'll get access as soon as you receive your welcome later

I wonder why they've still not resolved this online issue after a very long time...

Perhaps it's their way on slowing us down?

With the welcome.letters being sent out does that mean we can now call nvc in choosing agent (as per instruction 9n nvc website) Since the online system is not available? Did anyone tried calling nvc in choosing an agent? Anyone?

Yes you can call NVC to do Choice of Agent and afterwards they will give you the next instruction since website is still down..

But Today I see that, IV Fee payment status is 'Pay Now'. And it's open to pay $325.00 again. And DS 260 section is N/A.

Please tell me welcome letter like that or this is normal letter

Dear Sir/Madam:

The National Visa Center (NVC) received your inquiry regarding the immigrant visa petition: ****************

This petition is now eligible for further processing. The petitioner, principal applicant, and/or attorney of record will receive an instruction package regarding further processing of this petition.

IMPORTANT:

Do not let more than one year pass without contacting the NVC concerning this visa petition. If a period of one year passes from the last date of contact (by telephone, mail, or e-mail) with the NVC, all submitted fees and documents expire. If this occurs, the fees must be paid again and documents must be resubmitted in order to continue the immigration process.

I dont see any reason for trouble being outside the US.

Most of the process is online, since you've already sent the documents

If you're asking about having the interview outside the US, I have no idea

Suite 100 or 200, doesn't matter. Its still going to NVC and they'll redirect to the proper officer.

But always better to call and ask.
