Need Advice Please!!!!

[Radu & Mari 0]

Hi All,

I hope someone can give me some advice and tell me how to handle this problem.

I mailed out my AOS bill fee last week on Thursday overnight via USPS. As of this morning, VSC is telling me that they

do not show it in their system and it may take anywhere from 20-25 days before it is process. I have my I864 package ready to ship it to them. Can I go ahead and mail the package or do I have to wait until I hear from the representative that they have receive my payment? I feel that I'm so close to finalizing all and getting ready for the interview, and yet so far from getting all this ordeal behind me.

Please advice and good luck to everyone!

Mari,

Where did you send the AOS fee bill? You state VSC (Vermont Service Center).. is that a mistake on your part? The AOS fee bill should have been sent to NVC (National Visa Center - New Hampshire)

If it is a typing mistake on your part.. then fair enough.. if you really did send it to Vermont Service Center.. you sent it to the wrong address. If you really did send it to NVC.. then do not worry about what they said.. check next week on the status.

Hi devblt

I sent it NVC - New Hampshire. I'm just a little concern that they haven't post it when I see other people timeline and see that they usually received it the following day and they're working on sending out their next package. I guess I'm just trying to get this all done asap. My husband is going thru a depression stage and its starting to concern me, so I'm trying to see if I can move along as quickly as I can. That's why I ask what I ask. Thank you for your response.

Mari,

If you look at my signature below, you'll notice it took approx 13 days from the time that I sent my AOS fee bill before the AOS application was generated.. don't worry..

As the others said , if you really did send it to the correct address then you will be fine. if you sent it over night Express, then if you go to their web site, it will show the 3 initials of the person who accepted it at NVC. Just go to tracking, and type in your number from the express slip, and it will display the delivery message and you will know it was received.

If you call NVC, it usually says it will take so many weeks...blah..blah..blah

But it only takes up to 2 weeks in this case for that step,usually less. So be patient,which lord only knows no one will ever be on this site,including me, and check the USPS web site to help rid your self of the delivery worry.

Hope that helps resolve your worries a little bit. The days will pass like years, and gray hairs start to replace the youthful ones. But the day of holding our loved one will one day come, just think Spring, warmth, and how nice it will be to be in their arms by summer.

Good Luck...

Randy,

Thank you for the info. I truly appreciate everyone's input here at VJ. What is the email address for NVC? I did send the package to the correct address, I just worded it incorrectly when I requested help.

Mari

That's interesting because I was instructed to send the bill payments to:

National Visa Center

P.O. Box 790135

St. Louis, MO 63179-0135

At least that's what's in James shortcuts and the envelop that I received.

I don't know the email address for NVC, but they're the ones that handle all the AOS stuff. Don't bother sending in the I-864 until you get confirmation that they received the payment, though -- they'll just send it back to you.

[Daveed 0]

actually, strike that last post. I don't know who handles the fee payments.

but they will send you your documents back if the fees aren't paid.

Correct. The AOS Bill is sent to a different address, NOT the address in Portsmouth, NH.

beameup,

Yes, you are right.. don't know what i was thinking when I send the payments need to be sent to NH. Apologies for the misinformation.

Good Morning Randy,

Thank you so much for the information! I did trace it and found out it was received! Would it be safe to go ahead and mail out the package or should I just wait until I get the letter from them?

You need to wait a little longer until the NVC tells you that the AOS package has been generated and sent to you. If you send it before then, NVC may not process it.
