Ill try it. I clicked on the link. But what after that ? Could you be a little more specific becauae it takes me to a link where there are few options available.

Good luck to you!!

Try what I did so NVC more than likely will email you as soon as they assign your case and invoice number.

If it works, let us know.

I believe our friend SoerenHelmer inadvertently discovered a way to enable NVC to notify the applicants via EMAIL when a CASE and INVOICE ID numbers are available, I believe this is a great feature that if validated by other members and moderators it should added as an 'Official VJ advice" and/or edit Saylin's NVC Wiki guide. (According to her guide NVC does not contact applicants when their case/invoice numbers are available). I also believe that regardless if you filed or not a G-1145 with a USCIS, USCIS will not forward or share that form with NVC, therefore NVC can not contact you electronically prior to completion of DS-261.

So the solution is to send an email to NVC about a week after they received your package from USCIS:

This is the link: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/contact.html

Use the first option to inquire and inform them about your email address, (note: the second option is for inquiries after CC).

SoerenHelmer was notified electronically about his case number. I followed his advice and emailed NVC like 4 days ago.

I just happen to call few hours after NVC assigned my numbers, but the next day I received 2 emails from ASKnvc@state.gov , both were Welcome Letters, one addressed to my wife and the other to me. Both letters have the case and invoice numbers, mine was longer because it also had the AOS Invoice. Both have a DOCUMENT COVER SHEET that has me confused because it lists everything together, by that I mean the AOS documents and the IV documents. Can somebody explain that list to me? I also received another DOCUMENT COVER SHEET for the AOS only after I payed the AOS fee.

QUESTION:When I pay the IV fee, will I get a separate DOCUMENT COVER SHEET for the IV package?

I am really concerned about this long list of items on the aforementioned combined document cover sheet that came along with welcome letter.

These are the items on the combined cover sheet:

They are divided in 4 sections and for each item you have to check either ENCLOSED, UNAVAILABLE or Not Applicable.

1. DOCUMENT COVER SHEET

2. ORIGINAL, signed AOS.

3. Photocopies of Financial Documents

IRS transcripts

Federal returns

W2

Evidence of income

Proof of relationship

Proof of US Satus

Social Security Earning Statement

Proof of Assets.

4. Photocopies of Supporting Documents:

Adoption

Birth Certificates

Court/Prison records

Marriage Certificate

Divorce documents

Military Records

Petitioner Documents

Valid unexpired passport

Police certificates

Translations

Ill try it. I clicked on the link. But what after that ? Could you be a little more specific becauae it takes me to a link where there are few options available.

In your signature timeline you indicated you received an email from ASKnvc@state.gov.

>>Yes i recieved it.

Did you inquire via email to NVC and informed them about your email before you completed your DS-261?

>>Nope i just received it from them looks like they already have my email address from the I-130 filing.

How did you find out about your case and invoice numbers?

>>Called NVC about status and i got it over phone and then received email about it.

I am asking because I am trying to verify the theory of inquiring to NVC via email about a week after NOA2 enables the applicants to be informed automatically by NVC via email about their case numbers without calling. Its just a therory that so far has worked for three members including myself.

>>They emailed me after i had put in the email to ASKnvc@state.gov about 2 weeks before i got this mail.

The first option which is Approved by USCIS.

Then the subject matter is Case number and fees.

Then tell them you want to be notified electrinically and of course include your email address.

It's possible they got his email from the phone call. As far as i remember when i called to get my case number and IIN, they asked me for an email address.

I was hoping for a CC before Christmas, but by the looks of others timelines it will be pushing it. Scan date is the 20th of November and it seems on average it is taking 5 days longer than the '30 day' mark. So hopefully the week after Christmas will be the week. I know a lot of us are getting impatient and ready to be done!
