The following is additional guidance from the DOS on what to expect during this transition: Original documents will be returned to the applicant after the visa interview. NVC will forward the documents with the rest of the case file to the post. For the vast majority of posts, where electronic document collection is not yet in effect (even though the DS-260 is in use), original documents must still be sent in paper form to NVC. While all posts now require the DS-260, at this time only selected posts are accepting documents submitted electronically. Generally, if an applicant’s DS-230 has already been submitted and accepted, the applicant will not need to complete the DS-260 UNLESS instructed to do so by the National Visa Center (NVC) or a consular officer. These forms replace the paper DS-230 and DS-3032. Applicants can access both forms on the Web at. Immigrant visa applicants will apply online using Form DS-260 (Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration), and choose their agent online using Form DS-261 (Choice of Address and Agent). The Department of State (DOS) is now transitioning to an online immigrant visa application.
