What is the role of the NVC after my application is approved?

After your application is approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the National Visa Center takes on several important responsibilities in the immigration process. The NVC serves as a bridge between USCIS and the U.S. embassies or consulates where immigration visas are processed. Once your petition is approved, the NVC will receive it and will assign a case number. The NVC's primary role at this stage is to facilitate the preparation for the visa interview. This includes collecting necessary documentation from you and the petitioner, such as financial support information and civil documents, which are essential for the visa application process. You will also be required to pay any relevant visa fees at this stage. Once all required documents and fees have been submitted and reviewed, the NVC will schedule your visa interview at the appropriate U.S. embassy or consulate. They will also provide you with detailed instructions regarding the interview process, including any additional steps you need to complete.
