Records to gather for a preparation appointment

Use this list to organize the records you already have. It is not a complete filing checklist. The current agency instructions, your request and any advice from your qualified representative determine what must be submitted.

NVC case number and invoice ID
Passport biographic page
Birth, marriage, and police records as required
Sponsor-related documents
Certified translations

Tell us about missing records or conflicting names and dates. Bring instructions for any translation or certification required; confirm that separate work and its price before ordering it.

Confirm the service and request a written quote

Call with the specific task you need. We confirm whether we can provide that clerical work, which records are needed and the preparation charge before starting. Government fees and outside professional or translation charges are separate unless expressly included.

How the preparation appointment works

Call to confirm your selected form or records task, preparation scope, price and appointment availability.
Bring the requested records and your factual answers. We identify missing clerical information and keep your documents organized.
For agreed preparation work, you review the typed answers, documents and signatures before a submission. Questions requiring legal or medical judgment go to the appropriate professional.
Keep your final copy and agency correspondence. Preparation timing is separate from agency processing; no approval date or result is guaranteed.

Government fees and professional responsibilities

Check the official DS-260 page for the current edition, fee, filing method and agency notices. A listed Asal preparation fee is a private service charge. Do not assume a fee waiver, reduced agency charge or open filing period applies to you.

We provide clerical paperwork assistance. We do not select your immigration benefit, decide eligibility, give legal advice, develop case strategy, or represent you before USCIS or immigration court. Legal questions should go to a licensed immigration attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative working through a recognized organization.
