i learned something today that might be interesting to u all. i called nvc today regarding my case # and he mentioned that I wont have to mail the aos and iv package to them anymore. all of my stuff will be done online like making payments or uploading docs. nvc also wont have to mail the embassy anything since they'll have access online. so basically he said this will make the nvc process go faster. i told him i havent heard of such thing and he said as of now around 16 embassies are participating in this program including tokyo, rio de janeiro and my embassy Islamabad. 

 

edit: he also said i wont have to fill out the agent form since this online takes care of it. and if they need anything or have a message, that will be also online. 

This is true there's other members in the NVC filer group that scanned documents and have gotten case completed 4 days or 2 weeks

I don't think this is something new. NVC has been doing this for while. This information is also on state department's site

So basically this will make the process bit faster than the old school traditional way?

thats what the guy said. easier for us to upload (save cost in shipping/lost package etc), easier to communicate with nvc via website, and faster process especially since im sure mailing something from usa nvc to embassy in asia or africa could take days if not weeks. 

 

he said getting case # will be longest after that should be fairly quick.
