Does the NVC sends everything through DHL or just the package to the consulate after the case is complete? What method is used by NVC to send things such as DS 3032, IV bill and DS 230 to the beneficiary? It may be a simple question but I need this information. Thanks in advance.

Other than the official transfer of the petition, NVC will use the US Postal Service for communication with Petitioner and Beneficiary. The Consulates and Embassies tend to use in country courier delivery of some sort for their communication to the applicant/beneficiary.

Thanks. The thing that I am worried about is that this could really slow the process. In many countries such as India, the postal service system is not very reliable and is very slow. So if NVC sends something out to India through USPS, it would take more than 15 days just to get to the beneficiary.

That is where James's shortcuts come into play.

If you are doing the CR/IR1 process only, the NVC will send to your wife in India the Choice of Agent form. When the NVC sends it, you can actually send an e-mail to the NVC (through your wife's e-mail account, set one up if she does not have one) assigning yourself as the Choice of Agent. When NVC acknowledges this, the NVC will send all the documents that would have gone to your wife in India, to you here in the USA.

Send me a personal message if you need further info on the Choice of Agent e-mail, or James's shortcuts.

I called DOS 1 time a week usualy on Fridays for case status, when they indicated that the packet was sent to my SO, we already had the DS-230 ready to send back to them.

http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/forms/forms_1342.html

The mail did not slow things down much.

You can call the DOS at 202.663.1225 Then press 1, then press 5, then press 0.

OUR TIME LINE Please do a timeline it helps us all, thanks.

Is now a US Citizen immigration completed Jan 12, 2012.

I have a lawyer who filled out G-28 Notice of Entry of Appearance as Attorney when we filled out I130. I spoke to the people at NVC and I was told that they will send everything to my lawyer. Does this mean that I don't have to worry about the mailing process to India?

I think, NVC sends the packet via DHL to the Embassy/Consulate. NVC uses USPS when it communicates with the petitioner/beneficiary.

Does the NVC sends everything through DHL or just the package to the consulate after the case is complete? What method is used by NVC to send things such as DS 3032, IV bill and DS 230 to the beneficiary? It may be a simple question but I need this information. Thanks in advance.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview

If you have a lawyer then all the paperwork will go to him and not to your wife. The only thing that your wife will now get is most likely Packet 4 or the interview packet.
