DOS(美国国务院)日前发布了一项对于EB-5申请人利好的移民签证新政,这项新政预期将减少NVC环节的等待时间。
NVC(美国国家签证中心),美国国务院负责处理签证审批的部门,改变了其收取个人证明材料原件的程序。对于移民类别签证申请,NVC将不再就非电子处理程序,要求收集原始的个人材料(诸如:出生、婚姻、犯罪、服役、法庭、死亡或者离婚记录)。申请者仅仅要求通过邮件,将复印件递交给NVC,自己保留原件。然后,在签证面试时携带证明文件的原件。
通过实施这项不再收取特定原件材料的新政策,NVC希望能够减少等待时间并且对于申请人能够提升签证处理服务的水平。申请人之前不得不递交这项敏感、重要的文件给NVC,现在只需要在文件初审阶段提供复印件。NVC将会把这些复印件作为转领馆(注:国内为转广领馆)的材料之一,希望这能减少等待时间,处理更多的案子。
以下是DOS官网的新政公告(http://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/policy_updates/National%20_Visa_Center_No_Longer_Collecting_Original_Civil_Documents_November_2014.pdf):
