I’m currently processing my wife NVC application. See her timeline below. NVC consular embassy - London 1. Feb 9 2024 form 1-824 filed 2. Jan 27 2025 Case approved 3. Feb 24 2025 We received email from NVC with her case number and invoice ID. I understand I will go to CEAC portal, make payment then wait for confirmation after which we will complete DS260 then I can submit all required document to NVC via postal mail. Now, I need to know if we’re doing everything correctly. If you’ve gone through this process, please share your experience. Thank you.

I am going through this process for my children and would love to follow your process. case got approved last month. After receiving the approval letter. did you just wait for the email from NVC? I don’t know what to do next. thank you

@Samara R online upload is not available for my visa route. I have to send the documents to NVC via post.
Ernie WhizMar 6, 2025
@Jen Art yes you have to wait for the welcome letter or an invoice. in our case we received invoice few weeks after the approval. Then we proceeded to CEAC portal to make payment using the case ID and invoice number sent to us. At the moment we’re completing the DS260 form while gathering the necessary document to be submitted via post. Note that after payment, you will have to wait for few days for the payment to be processed before you can complete the DS260 form. Good luck

@Ernie Whiz I appreciate the information. thank you so much. there was not much information in the approval letter sent(at least they should have added that NVC will get in touch 😊). thanks a lot. and if I may ask, is yours also the 1c? the category I mean

@nur Tim I just completed the DS 260. I have no clue. I think they will open another tab to submit the civil documents.
Ernie WhizApr 25, 2025
@nur Tim if your category is E2 then you have to send all required documents through postal mail to NVC services center as stated on your letter and checklist. our case is now documentarily completed (DQ) we’re now waiting for interview invitation letter.

@Ernie Whiz hi Ernie! how are you doing? did you get an interview? could you please answer the previous question?
Ernie WhizMay 8, 2025
@nur Tim I am not sure the date we got DQed. I reached out to AskNVC via online inquiry regarding the status of our submission, they responded on April 9th that we have been DQ, that we should now wait to be scheduled for an interview. Although few days after (April 11th) we received an official notification via email from NVC that we have been DQed

@Ernie Whiz thank you! have you got an interview ? do you know do we need provide I-864 on interview ? and what’s questions would be asked
Ernie WhizMay 17, 2025
We haven’t gotten an IV yet, still waiting. my understanding is that you will go with all the documents submitted to NVC to the interview or the interview invitation letter will state what you can come in with. Questions would basically be about what you have submitted, you and your spouse.
