          How do you pay the fees of USD220? When And where do you pay ? By debit card at the consulate?
          Open link: uscis.gov/uscis-elis/

          Step1:
          • Note Alien Number which starts with A on US IR5 VISA.
          • A-Number has 12 digits.
          • Start filling from left A-0123456789. Ignore last two digits.
          • DOS case number is the same as NVC ID. (ex BOM1234567890)
          • Type A or DOS numbers correct. In case of mistake, it will reject.
          • If website not updated, you may have to wait for 5 more days after receipt of Visa.
          • Payer information:
            • Update email and US address.
          • To this address SSN card will be dispatched within 90 days.
          Step 2:
          • Click Next for payment of USD 220. Amount will be automatically populated.
          • Payment can be done either to each or both parents at a time (provision to pay both also available).
          • If unable to pay both at a time, then pay individually.
          • Ask petitioner in US to pay. Avoid exchange or other bank charges in India.
          • If paid in advance in India before leaving for US, process starts as soon as Alien Lands in US.
          • SSN card fee may also be paid after entering US. But the process commences thereafter.

          Bon Voyage! Relax with your kith and kin!

          Regards

              Please do not get confused on this issue. PCC issued by PSK/RPO is ONLY accepted by the Consulate. It is valid for ONE year only.

                      No Sealed cover along with passport:
                      Visa approved instructions received on interview day, contained as follows:

                      Ever since electronic filing introduced from 2017, those who submitted online
                      do not receive any immigration package or sealed envelope and only receive
                      passports with Visa affixed.

                      Visa contains annotation, IV DOCUMENTS IN CCD.
                      Upon endorsement serves as temporary I-551 evidencing permanent residence of 1 year.

                      As such, not received any sealed packet along with passports.
                      • Some applicants file physical documents to USCIS and NVC.
                      • Such beneficiaries/ applicants receive immigration package in a sealed envelope not to be opened.
                      • Carry the sealed cover intact Unopened to US, along with Passports.
                      • At US port of entry, hand over the sealed packet to the US Immigration Officer.
                      Regards

                          Hi,
                          The two years validity is not for IR5 and is maybe for other kinds of visa possibly like “K” (as can be seen in your image).
                          The US Travel Docs website and the US embassy websites all mention the validity of PCC for Indian applicants as one year.
                          I advise you not to think about that much and move ahead with your new PCC application. If the interview date is near, you will have the opportunity to submit once you receive it.

                          Regards
                          NG

                          • I agree about not taking any chance and apply for PCC. My parents applied for new one last week. Let’s see how much time it takes to process the new PCC. They have not received ir5 interview letter yet, so hopefully they will get PCC in hand before the interview

                            • Dear Forum Members, surprisingly, there was no movement for whole of the last week. We had seen something similar in February also. Let us hope that there will be movement in this week. Best wishes to one and all. Please remember to post an update as soon as there is a movement, it boosts our optimism.
