Dang... why don't I use PREVIEW instead of POST?????
Here is a modified, and more accurate STEP 2:
STEP 2) Create a range of tracking numbers, so you can track by NUMBER instead of reference. I didn't want to hit and miss guessing tracking numbers, so, you need to generate numbers with the correct 'check digit'. This is where Excel comes in. I made 3 columns, 1 for the "seed" number, one for the check digit, and one for the tracking number which is the "seed" and the check digit combined (CONCATENATE is the Excel function.) I know, very techy stuff, but it works. The check digit is created by taking the seed number, which is the tracking number you found in STEP 1, with the last digit removed, i.e. 9341421994 becomes 934142199. In the check digit column, put the formula MOD(934142199,7), which result in this case is 4. This generates the check digit. In the tracking column, concatenate the SEED and the CHECK DIGIT. Now you have a valid tracking number. Copy this formula for as many times as you'd like tracking numbers generated. For DEC 17, I have generated over 250 tracking numbers.
I'm going to blame this on LACK OF SLEEP FROM TRACKING SO MUCH!!!!

This method is EXCELLENT. Creating this spreadsheet nails down everything. Nice WORK!!!
I've been trying for a January tracking number but I can't find one... I've been using EXP 14 JAN 2008A as it was sent out today and checked a range of dates but nothing. I also changed the last letter up to F but still nothing... has the format changed with the new year?!

EXP 07 JAN 2008A works, so I don't think the format has changed. You'll notice the packages don't get picked up until the afternoon or sometimes not until the next day, so I guess they just haven't shipped your package yet. Give them a day or two, and try some surrounding dates.
Excellent information! I was able to find the package going from VSC to Manila that I hope contains my 01/11/2008 approval. Looks like it left the VSC today with tracking number 9341426496.

Nope... all packages must go to NVC first, even K-1's.
We don't know how to track packages from the USCIS service centers to NVC yet, only from NVC to the embassies.
Once your file is at NVC, it will be assigned an NVC case number, briefly reviewed, then sent to the embassy for interview scheduling under NVC expedited case procedures.

How do you guys know which one is yours? The NVC emailed us on the morning of Feb. 27th to say it had forwarded our file to Vancouver. How do I know they forwarded it on the 26th, 27th, or won't do it till a few days later?
Is there something very obvious I'm missing? Do I have to do a timeline search to see how many ppl are waiting in Vancouver and narrow it down like that?

It does work... but how do I know that it was my petition being sent from NVC to the Embassy???
Hi Guys,
I see a few shipments to London from NVC.
The description reads Description: US DIPLOMATIC PAPERS.
Would K-1 visa stuff be so labelled?
