I think NVC is picking up the pace. They received my petition exactly 1 week ago, 2/01, and I called tonight and the nice guy i spoke with, George, said just finished assigning a case number and IIN. wooohoooooooooo!!!

He said to wait until I get a letter from NVC about what to do next, but since I've been reading Dept of State website since last July and VJ has been super helpful, i knew what to do. I already submitted the DS-261!

So i just read the NVC guide and yes, it´s very helpful :-)

One question though: It says i can send photocopies. Do they have to be certified copies or are "regular" copies okay since i will bring the originals to the interview anyway? I´m talking about the supporting documents for the beneficiary (me) such as birth certificate, police record and the passport copy.

Plus i´m still unsure about contacting the NVC or not. Should i start calling them about the case number & invoice identification number or shall we just wait until we hear something?

Fingers crosed for a smooth process for everyone! :goofy:

I´m talking about the supporting documents for the beneficiary (me) such as birth certificate, police record and the passport copy. Yes, send copies of civil documents for the IV package. Keep originals for the interview.

Im pretty sure you you'd rather call than wait.. so go ahead and start calling after a week from your approval.

Well welcome to VJ. I see you FB2 so I have no idea what your packages entail. Hopefully if you do get a checklist it will be one that you take care of at embassy.

Its almost the same thing? I got the information from the travelstate site so i guess its where all visas get their info from the affadivit of support and its documents is the same for everyone the civil documents is the thing that differs
