Calling All F2A's (Spouses & Children of Permanent Residents)

[visjig]

Just the thread I was looking for. New member here. Hi to all.

I'm a PR sponsoring my spouse. Priority date is Nov 1, 2010. I-130 has been approved and paid Affidavit of support fee and the cover sheet is available to print. Also, sent the Agent selection letter.

Question: Do I have to wait for the NVC to tell me when to send the Affidavit of support and supporting documents or can I do that proactively? Also, can I send it online (email/upload as pdf file)? Any help is appreciated.

By the way, we didn't receive any letter in mail from NVC. The communication to pay Affidavit of support fee and agent choice were received by email. Don't they send any paper document any more?

Thanks.

Keep your hopes high.

It is advisable to send the AoS form and the supporting docuements as soon as you have to cover sheet to printout. You can e-mail them but I would suggest you also post them the hard copy via a courier.

Sometimes they send you post to inform you but nowadays it is mostly e-mails to inform you.

Good luck.

Thanks for the confirmation.

Husband is an Indian citizen living in UAE. He is currently in India on a visit and we thought it would be a good idea to get the PCC now. Is it too early? How long is PCC from India valid? Are we supposed to send the originals to NVC?

Thanks again.

Hello Laterbloomer - your priority date is Nov 1, 2010. I am surprised that USCIS asked you to submit I-864 so quickly. Visa availability date for the most recent month is June 2007.

I didn't know that USCIS is completing all the paperwork even though interview will take some time...

[laterbloomer]

I was surprised too. H says it's a trick to collect the fee. But who knows.

Can you give the link of the forum, because there are I guess alot of people on this forum who have applied in the start of 2009 but did not get interview letters yet.

Got a letter yesterday saying the the case is completed and that they will let us know when the case is sent to mumbai embassy. I hope this moves fast! The case was filed in May 2010, All the paperwork was completed in Feb 2011. Now we are just waiting for the interview!

[laterbloomer]

sparklingstar,

Can I ask you a question? Did your siblings submit PCCs along with their DS230? If so, were they able to obtain the same from the passport office? I hear passport offices insist on interview letters. Did that happen in their case?

Thanks

Yes you are right. Many people are even in America who applied in 2009 and 2010 because they had their interviews scheduled before January 2011 in which retrogression took place. Anyways best of luck everybody!
