IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & Proceduresdoes NVC send you an auto email after emailing ds-3032?
Yes. It is about 1-2 minutes later. This shows you that they have received your email but it takes up to 2 weeks for them to accept the email. I am still waiting for the acceptance. Good luck

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresAt What point does beneficiary gets the packet?
NVC sends the DS-3032(choice of agent) to the petitioner and beneficiary. Make sure the address for the beneficiary is up to date and correct. The petitioner will also get the I-864 AOS bill. Then the petitioner pays the bill either online using routing and account numbers and also by obtaining IIN# or invoice number from NVC once the case is received by them or through the mail. After the check is cashed or shows "PAID" online and the DS-3032 is received, the NVC will generate the I-864 package or if you paid online you will print it out from online as well as the coversheet and mail it in. After that is received than they will review it which can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks, they will generate IV bill which is about $400.00 and will send the DS-230 form to the agent. DS-230 instruction would also be given to the beneficiary. Gather all required documents and form and mail it to NVC. Once it is received NVC can take up to 6 weeks to review and case complete. Lastly will be forwarded to embassy or consulate abroad. Hope that helps. You can also look at guides on VJ. Good luck

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresQuestion about NVC I864
They did not send one out for me because I paid online. I talked to 3 reps and they all said that I needed to print the forms which is under the receipts section of the online payment system. I got the form and coversheet and printed out. I sent it out immediately and on the 17th of this month it was entered into their system. Good luck.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresPolice certificate
The reps at NVC give different information all the time. The police record has to be current but they need all of the police records from every country you have lived in since the age of 16. Good luck I hope that helps. Try calling and speak to a supervisor.

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresWhat's the deal with NVC?
Yeah it has been really hard to get to them these past couple of days. I usually am able to talk to them everyday and which I do but this week was really hard but I was able to get them today. Try Thursday I don't know if that makes any difference but Mondays and Fridays always seems really hard to get them. Good luck.

From what I have been reading and hearing from NVC it takes 2-4 weeks for the embassy to receive it. Most of the time NVC is the one that makes the appointment. Hope that helps.

Thanks Happyinlove,

Let me log on to our NVC page and see if those instructions are still there or not, I am not even sure if the NVC page still exist for us or not, will be a month in a week that we have paid the bills.

Check it out and then write us back about that. Good luck

Here is my specific question about RFE, what I want to know is, how many days do they provide to submit the RFE.

I am not that concern about how many days they take to process after they receive our RFE, but more likely whats the time period they give out to submit the requested information.

The thing is, if we get an RFE, it would only mean we will get it for a civil marriage certificate, so to provide it, my husband will have to come in India and register the marriage, might take 40 days if we are doing it in my Home state, might take only a week if we are doing in some other state. So I want to be prepared about what to expect in an RFE situation.

I am sorry for not understanding you question first time around. They give you 6-8 weeks for that as well. You can call NVC if you want to know if it is ok for an extension for the amount of days it takes. Another person who is on VJ took about 2 months for her to reply to NVC and her case was completed after 1 week of them receiving the documents. Good luck

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Process & ProceduresWondering about NVC package.
I paid online and they don't send out the packages because you can print it out there. Once you paid your IV bill there is a link for the instructions, you can refer to that to see what kinds of documents you need. If you don't have a marriage certificate there are several other documents you can use in place such as the document you have written about. For RFE's I was told from 6-8 weeks but it is much faster I have seen people get a response 2 days upto 2 weeks. I hope that helps. Just send in all your documents asap so if they do ask for anything you have time to get it without delaying your processing. Keep us updated. Good luck

You want to call the NVC to retrieve the invoice number or INN# in order to print the documents online. It will probably say it is paid online so you would just print it out but make sure you get the invoice number from NVC because it won't let you log in. Good luck

i can fax the DS-3032??? really? cuz the email thing isn't working. i can't seem to get an automated response. i have used both mine and my husband's email. have emailed them at least 5 times already. i wonder if that would be a problem of emailing them too much..

You can't fax because I asked the rep the same question and she said that a fax of the paper is a copy and because of that the signature is also a copy. She said I can fax it to my husband but he has to print it out and sign it and mail it to them.

I still have not received any acceptance from NVC. This is really irritating me. I am getting all the other documents ready and have my husband mail it to me before hand and when the time comes, I will mail it out. I am tired of waiting for this.

I just talked to a rep at NVC and she asked me if my husband received an auto-response after he emailed them and I asked my husband and he did not. I told him to forward the email to me and then I forwarded to NVC and received an auto-response a minute later. If you did not receive an auto-response then they have not received it at least that what she told me.

I emailed them on the 07/1/08 and got a reply today. My husband emailed the choice of agent on 7/4/08 but has not gotten any response. Give it a couple days. They say it can take 2-3 weeks for them to receive and process it.
