That's not an error, your IV fee hasn't been invoiced. Call into NVC and ask them to invoice IV fee.

Just an FYI, since today is the tax return deadline in the US, from now on, 2014 tax information will be required in the AOS package and 2014 is now considered the most recent tax year on the I-864 fo

When it asks total gross income on irs form 1040ez is this the total income line which is line 22 on my dad (co sponsors) tax returns or is it the adjusted gross income line 37 that I put on the affidavit ? As well my dad and mom file jointly so the total income on the tax returns is their income together is this what I put for my dads total income on the 864 even though it is both of their incomes together and when it asks these things for my mom on the 864a do I put the combined income for them both as well. Sorry for silly questions just don't want to mess up .

I called the NVC and they said the review time now has dropped to 45 days. However I didn't properly fill out the agent of choice form and didn't get invoiced IV bill. I just filled out agent of choice properly the NVC rep it takes 40 days to process the form and get IV invoice, that doesn't sound right, does it?

How soon after one's DS-261 is reviewed does the IV fee get invoiced, please? After one month of paying the AOS fee, I finally got an agent to review my DS-261 over the phone yesterday but still can't pay the IV fee online. My online portal still says the DS-261 is "Completed" but "No Agent or Attorney Selected" a day after it was supposedly reviewed.

Is page 5 of the affidavit of support just estimations for the current annual income as well as for anyone else's income I'm using . I'm assuming all of these things on this page are estimations any help is appreciated thanks .

Finishing up the DS-260 and 2 quick questions-

1) Do I include my husbands (Petitioner) son's details under information about children?

2) There's a character limitation on the text box where I need to mention my 'given names' and I can't complete my full name. Is that OK and I just include whatever fits in or do I use initials?

I am the beneficiary- Spouse (Sri Lankan citizen) to a US citizen

It is taking a long time with IV invoicing currently. It took about 4 weeks for us (scan date 26 march). Send your documents in the meantime. We called NVC and that is what we were told to do.

You may want to check with NVC first as each case may be different. I assume your AOS fee is paid.

Good luck.

Luck is what we all need right now.

I've tried calling NVC ever since Friday of last week and have not been able to get through... is it a big deal that I call and have my agent form reviewed immediately or do I wait a few more weeks? I sent in AOS and IV today

I'm confused. We filled out DS-261 and paid AOS fee on 4th of March. Form is shown as Completed, fee as Paid.

There is "Pay Now" link for IV Fee, but there is no IV fee available for payment. Just info on AOS fee and for IV Fees "Total Amount Selected: $0.00".

Is it supposed to be like that or should I start calling NVC?

We haven't sent the packages yet as I'll be getting a police certificate only next week.
