Does the NVC contact you after the I-140?

The immigration process to the United States can seem complex, especially when dealing with visa categories like the EB-3. It’s important to understand each step and remember the necessity of strictly following immigration laws and regulations, as well as seeking reliable information from serious sources to avoid scams or misleading promises.

In the specific case of the EB-3, the approval of the I-140 form, which is the immigration petition, is just one of the steps in the process. After the I-140 is approved, the next step for those outside the United States involves the National Visa Center (NVC).

Usually, the NVC contacts applicants once the petition is approved and the visa category priority date aligns with the established processing dates. This communication includes instructions for the consular processing phase, which involves submitting documents and paying fees, among other steps.

It’s worth emphasizing that following official guidelines, monitoring publications from the Department of State and immigration services, and consulting trustworthy sources are important actions to avoid being harmed by incorrect information. Always remember that strict compliance with legal requirements is fundamental and, when necessary, support from specialized professionals can help clarify doubts without making promises of results or guarantees of approval.

Staying well informed and cautious regarding official processes and deadlines is the best way to avoid setbacks and ensure each step of the process is fulfilled according to the established rules.
