NUWORLD Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 NuWorld - now yer on the crusade as well? Ok - My apologies if I offended YOUR sensibilities, but... - dnoblett was wrong about electronic processing. I listed what it's all about. I was talking about YOU!! Link to comment
Sebastian Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) Maybe you can call NVC (603) 334-0700 and try to request electronic processing. What is electronic processing? Faxing? Scanned docs? Wouldn't that be the same as a copy? Has anyone tried sending Notorized copies? Would we receive a request for more information?I suspect notarized should be fine. The notary is certifying that the copy matches the original. Electronic processing has to do with NVC sending to GUZ, not when you send docs to NVC. dnoblett - You know this is wrong, yes? Electronic processing has to do with NVC sending to GUZ, not when you send docs to NVC. The statement, as you worded it, is wrong. Electronic processing has to do with the petitioner emailing in SCANS of the original documents and forms TO NVC. Once the docs are complete, NVC makes 'a packet', GUZ picks up the packet 'electronically' - there is no DHL sending. HaoRan - is possible to opt in for electronic processing - but - just where are you , in the NVC processing stage? If you've started it at all, and want to shift to electronic, you have to OPT IN. If you've not started NVC processing yet, and are ready to start NVC processing - electronic processing at NVC is available to you. You might have to ASK for it, via telephone, or by opting in electronically to the special NVC Guangzhou email address.That is why I noted this in #9 http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=498156 Yes, Randy brought up something new on DOS. Randy brought it up? You must not be reading my prior posts about electronic processing. Oh Well. My apologies - I've no idea where you went with this, it's gotten all muddled now... Have a look? Randy's post today and my post from the 12th of May -- both list the same url. Oh Well. If you get a moment, do please have a read on the gov site. It doesn't apply to K-1 or K-3 visas at all.

Sebastian Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) NuWorld - now yer on the crusade as well? Ok - My apologies if I offended YOUR sensibilities, but... - dnoblett was wrong about electronic processing. I listed what it's all about. I was talking about YOU!! Yes, I caught that. hence the comment. Now - what's your issue? if you'd like to cover this via PM, I welcome that avenue. FWIW, your comment in a public forum seems abrasive - IMO it seems you are trying to 'stir the pot'. Is that really the case? Anyway - lets pick this up and continue via PM, ya? Thanks !

Sebastian Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) HaoRan - if you can wait a few days before 'sending in the DOCS' - I suggest you opt in for electronic processing NOW. In the mean time, SCAN in those documents, convert them to PDF files - you'll need them in a week or so. Edited June 10, 2009 by Sebastian (see edit history) Link to comment

HaoRan Posted June 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 (edited) Hello all, and thanks for the replies. We are at the DS-230 stage. I've already done the Affidavit of Support and everything else up to now with the NVC. Now, this is the last step as I understand it. If we can scan and file electronically then that's great. So, I can contact the NVC and Opt for the final documents to be sent to NVC and then Guangzhou? Thanks all, Edited June 10, 2009 by HaoRan (see edit history) Link to comment

Thanks all, Ya, it's possible - just remember that your casefile # will change from GUZ to GZO, and they might ask your to resend in a lot of things that you've already submitted, as a scanned pdf file. Truly, at this point, though - it's all theory (and MY theory, at that) - that you can get converted INTO an electronic processing case. There is some reference to it on the USCIS portal. I say it's possible, but there will be an initial delay for NVC to get it converted. Personally, I think the delay is useful, as you will no longer have the 'dead zone' time wait that a physical case file has (1 to 4 months waiting in a bonded warehouse in Guangzhou). In any event - give em a call tomorrow (also follow up with that special NVC Guangzhou email address) and see what they say... Warmest Regards... Link to comment

If you get a moment, do please have a read on the gov site. It doesn't apply to K-1 or K-3 visas at all.Hey I study the DOS site all the time, but can learn new things all the time. And correct, not for K-Visas because K-Visas pass quickly through NVC and have none of the NVC document processing. If electronic filing of docs at NVC then results in electronic transfer to GUZ bypassing Chinese customs, this may be another BIG reason to avoid K-3, this can make CR-1 essentially quicker than K-3.
