Also be aware that most of the guides here pertain to the K1/K2 visa process, not IR/CR-1/2.

There are differences in the process that may not be stated in the guides, so be aware.

Part 1 and Part 2 of the Immigrant Visa Application - well, there were 2 parts in the DS-230 -

so

if you see this in any instructions? I suggest to you that the instructions you have are very old.

Switch to the DS-260 instead, and soon.

Fee payment and doc intake occurs at the NVC - on a PC ? Click the link below, it's the Bible for NVC Processing for your visa type, and it's current.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

-=-=-=-=-=R E A D ! ! !=-=-=-=-=-

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !
