National Visa Center (Dept of State)After receiving NVC case n° and IIN we have to wait??

Hi guys, on december we have receipt a NVC case number and Invoice Identification Number, we gave our e mail to NVC and they were told to wait about 20days to receive an e mail with the next step to take.

 

So my question is, we have to wait for their e-mail for complete forms DS260&261 and pay AOS? or we can pay right now?

 

Thank you in advance


Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-01-06 08:15:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)Payment Istructions??

You'd pay the same way you paid your AOS fee.

What the email is trying to say is to NOT send in any check/Money order to NVC as it could delay the process but to rather use the payment portal.

If your IV fees are available to pay, go ahead and pay it and get your IV package ready.

 

Good Luck

 

You should see Print Document Cover Sheet in your payment portal. You need to print that and include it on top of your package. There are separate document cover sheet for AOS and IV.

Thank you so much for explain to me!!! I had understood I should not send all AOS documents to this address! thank you yet!


Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-01-24 15:10:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)Payment Istructions??

Hi guys, today I received an e mail contain payment istruction.

In that e mail they wrote this:

Do not send fee payments to the National Visa Center's Portsmounth, New Hampshire facility. This will delay processing of the visa petition.

Go to our website immigrantvisas.state.gov and follow the istructions displayed.

 

I went on that website but I don't find nothing..someone know where I have to send the AOS package and after the IV package?

Thank you so much!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Finally available to pay AOS fee!!

Tax for 2013 is not necessary till after April 2014.

 

If send AOS after April 2014 then you send tax for 2013,2012,2011

 

If send AOS now , you send : 2012,2011,2010

 

So you can send AOS now

ok thank you for explain..so another question, when I have all document about AOS package I can send to NVC or I need to wait they ask to me?

Post from Saylin

 

 

 

Just saw this on a thread and thought I'd share here too as it's relevant. You can now get the IRS tax transcripts online (no longer need to wait to receive it by mail)!! Look here: http://www.irs.gov/I.../Get-Transcript

 

This will make it even easier (and way faster) for people to get their tax transcripts to send to NVC yes.gif

 

Edited by Saylin, Yesterday, 03:10 PM.

 

 

Majority checklist are for AOS. Scan the forums and find out what the checklist were about. Also have a different set of eyes check your completed AOS.

 

Good Luck

 

thank you so much!! I didn't know I do online!!

My husband told to me don't send yet tax to he..better is wait to pay tax about previous year and after get IRS tax?

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Help !!!! Please

HI! I-864 is the correct form for your wife, and I think is correct too for the joint sponsor beacause I open this form, and at Part 1, point 1.d. I'm the only joint sponsor. 

So I'm not really sure, better call NVC and ask.For your second question you can download this form from uscis website. Call to NVC everyday for you case number & Invoice ID.

Good luck

National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS package..question about tax

until 14 April 2014 you are not officially required TAX Return for 2013 but it will required if your visa interview date comes after 14 April !

 

In short if your visa will held on 13 April then your 2012 Tax return will be enough

we asked a notary who helped us to complete the Form I-864 and told us that go well, we also send 2012 and 2011.

For the poverty line, if we overcome okay if taxes 2013 were paid.


Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-02-07 08:53:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS package..question about tax

No problem. If you're sending the 2013 tax return, you don't have to send 2012. USCIS requires the latest tax return only, so you're good.

I have a question for you, too... I posted this on Visa Journey, but I haven't got a reply yet, so I was wondering if you could.. Did you and your husband file tax as "married filing jointly"? My husband and I have been married for 2 years, but I was an international student until last August, so this is our first time filing tax together, and we are very confused. IRS says that if I was a non-resident alien and a resident alien in the same year, I have to declare that my husband and I choose ourselves to be treated as resident aliens for the entire 2013 in order to file jointly. But my husband is a US citizen, so I don't understand why he has to be treated as a resident alien. Putting that aside, I am wondering if I really have to attach a statement for the declaration, because that means we have to file tax by mail, so that we can attach a statement. But I want to file electronically if that's possible, because it's easier. Did you and your husband ever go through this? Did you write a statement and send it with tax form by mail? When I was a non-resident alien, I was working in the USA, and I had no income from outside the USA, so I don't even see the point in telling the IRS that I was a non-resident alien and a resident alien last year and that I want to be treated as a resident alien for the entire year, because if I just file jointly with my husband electronically, I would be treated the same way anyway, wouldn't I?? Sorry if this is too confusing... the thing I'm referring to is found in this link: http://www.irs.gov/p...blink1000222177 "Choosing resident alien status" is the section that applies to me. Thanks!

Mmm..I'm sorry but I don't know how you can do! my husband pay tax like single, because I'm not yet with he..I'm sorry don't help you!!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS package..question about tax

if his 2013 tax return is better, i would put 2013 tax return, but if you guys need to send AOS package sooner than he gets his tax return, i think 2012 is fine, since tax filing has just started.

Yes, he paid 2013 tax. thank you so much for the answer!


Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-02-03 15:28:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)AOS package..question about tax

Hi guys, my husband first week of february pay 2013 tax, my question is can he send in AOS package 2013 tax or must necessarily send 2012 year while he pay yet 2013?

thank you to all

Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-02-11 13:39:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)For all the people who have to send an Affidavit of Support Package!!!

I wrote this because when I asked if I can send 2013 tax return, some people tell me will be necessary to send 2012 tax before 14 april, because it would haven't accepted from NVC.


 



Chantal&MarjoFemaleItaly2014-02-11 13:04:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)For all the people who have to send an Affidavit of Support Package!!!

Hi guys, I would like to share with all of this thing that I just found.

Today I received an e mail from NVC who said this:

 

"We received the Affidavit of Support Processing Fee payment(s) for this

case.  You must now download and complete the Affidavit of Support
form(s).  You can submit 2013 if you have filed your taxes for that
year.  Please visit the following website to download the appropriate
Affidavit of Support form(s) and instructions:

http://travel.state..../info_3197.html"




 

So I would say that, there is no need to wait until 14 April 2014, if the taxes have been paid about 2013 year!!!

 

For me it was really important to know!

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Jerusalem & NVC Requirements

Thank you smile.png
My spouse stated the requirement is to bring the orig, when u request another orig; otherwise,
The office will not give you another. That is not the rule here. So i dont know why such a rule would exist and i am trying to figure out a way around this.

Maybe if i tell nvc that the orig will be provided at the interview. ?? Not sure if this will fly or not.

I was hoping someone with experience with the same 'country' and consulate would have known if they were able to submit copies to nvc or if they had to have prepared origs to both, nvc and the interview.

I am lost on this matter for now.

I sincerely thank you for your help. biggrin.png









But why!!! why one copy ok, two no?? crazy people dry.png

But if she ask a copy now, and after you filed form and pay fees on ceac site maybe can pass 2 or 3 months, after this time she can't ask another?
