NVC Checklist question

[Mansoor 0]

Fee has been paid for IV Case but it shows in progress, I have few questions will NVC sent the checklist of what civil documents to be sent to them or I have to check from the NVC website specific to my country approved documents. Plus my petitioner is my father so do I have to submit the forms which are related to like marriage, death certificate etc.... or Do I have to simply sent my Birth certificate, Police character certificate. One more question is it and faster way to sent the documents via email processing method or conventional mailing method, Keeping all the documents with their translation into english from native language it's very hard to keep all the file sizes under 5MB, Any method to keep the file sizes under 5MB?.

What is the meaning of this do I have to add affidavit of someone who is elder then me at the time of my birth like my father?.

Relationship Documents IR1/CR1

Birth Certificate

Before 197-

Affidavit of elder/someone alive at the time of the applicant’s birth

is your father dead? If so you no longer have a case. Immigration is for family reunification and if the petitioner is dead there is no reunification.

Who says my father is dead, if you don't know the answer to my questions then don't come to conclusions on your own thanks.

Alright Mansoor i'll try to chime in,

First of all Electronic Processing is not going to work for Pakistan.

If your father is the Petitioner then the best way to prove the relationship is via Birth Certificate. Having an Original Nadra English/Urdu Birth Certificate makes things easier, but a older version(urdu only) will also work. You will need it translated.

Islamabad Embassy doesn't require Police certificates for Pakistan but it is always best to have a police certificate of the places you lived after the age of 18 in case they ask for it.

If you are done with your I-864 package, send in your IV package and your case should move on to get scheduled for Interview at the Embassy of Islamabad.

Oh and if you require more info the Islamabad embassy website has a lot of info on all types of visas.

Here is a checklist required for Immigrant Visas.

Asslam o Alaikum bro

Thanks alot bro for your infor on this and I have the translated version of the birth certificates but I read in the isl us embassy website provided list of docs require that the police certificate is required to be send to nvc. So I make my father agent too on my behalf who deals with the NVC so in this scenario can my father fill up the Form DS-260 too and they provided the link too to that form after the fee for iV package is confirmed by NVC.

One more thing bro which I want to know from you that my priority date will get active in about 3 months from now, Can we send the all docs with the filled form DS-260 after a month from now? will that be ok as I have to arrange the police certificates in that period.

Since my father is an agent too on my behalf do I still have to send the docs with the filled DS-260 in hard copies from Pakistan or my father can do it online from states?.

W-Salam bro,

Your agent can submit docs and fill out the DS-260 on your behalf.

It is preferable to submit documents as soon as you receive them. You never know what NVC might ask. And yes you are right regarding NVC asking police certificate while the Islamabad Embassy only requires it if you have lived outside of Pakistan.

Regarding documents, You can send them directly to NVC or you can send them to your father and then he sends them to NVC, it doesn't matter which route they reach as long as they reach NVC.. I believe now NVC only requires photocopies and you bring the originals to the interview so you can just have your father send the IV package and bring the originals to your interview.

Good Luck

Pakistan does not have Electronic Processing, what this means is NVC must physically receive the documents whether from the United States or outside of states. So you can email your father but your father has to send in the IV package via USPS, UPS or Fedex to NVC directly.

This is what IV Package usually contains

IV Packet
a. Bar-coded cover sheet (You get this from CEAC Website)
b. 2 Passport-sized photographs of the beneficiary (name, dob, and case number on the back)
c. Photocopy of the biographic data page of the beneficiary's passport
d. Photocopy of birth certificate of the beneficiary
e. Photocopy of marriage certificate of the beneficiary (If Married)
f. Photocopy of police certificate(s) of the beneficiary, (in some countries this is not available)
g. Photocopy of divorce decree of the beneficiary's prior marriage(s), (if applicable)
h. Photocopy of military records of the beneficiary, (if applicable)
i. Photocopy of Court records, (if applicable)

This website should answer more questions regarding Electronic Processing. Basically only a handful of countries are allowed email processing of documents. Pakistan is not on the list of allowed countries for Electronic Processing.
