So I thought I had this all figured out until my fiancé sent me a link to the department of state website she is getting information from.  We are at the phase where over the weekend I received a standard form letter from DOS stating that the NVC received our petition from USCIS and to give them a few weeks to send it over to the Consulate in Johannesburg South Africa.  However I don't know if this info is dated on the DOS website she found our what but it states I need to send my affidavit of support and all my evidence (bank info, work info, etc.) to the NVC.  I thought after receiving this notice the next step was for me to courier these documents directly to my fiancé so she has them for her interview? 

 

Separate topic...the address on the application is NOT a good mailing address for her it is only a physical address.  Should we contact the embassy in Johannesburg directly to give them good contact info for her?  I have no idea how they contact the claimant for her medical and interview dates etc.

 

Thanks!

no, that information isn't for k1 petitions

 

you are correct, the file just passes through nvc, the affidavit of support and supporting documents of your relationship is at the interview

 

the nvc is for the other types of petitions

Okay great that is what I thought.  It's weird because they didn't provide much in the way of instructions...I just sort of found out on my own about the affidavit of support and put that together.  I'm not sure if more instructions are coming to me.  But I think I just need to send of the affidavit and support documents directly HER and then it's sort of out of my hands.  I'm still concerned about getting them the correct address but I guess I should contact the consulate rather than NVC at this point...

Most embassies contact the beneficiaries by email. If you go to the country portal, I'm sure some people have detailed that information or their Embassy Reviews or you can go to the regional forums and ask other folks going through the RSA embassy. http://www.visajourney.com/reviews/index.php?cnty=South+Africa&cty=&dfilter=5
