Hi brothers and sisters we all have that curiosity to know when our cases arrived at the embassy ,so i tried to find out how and it took me a lil while from what i been reading in some topics here they told how but when i tried never worked :blink: but when i just tried simple thing found it worked and got the track # and where is our files now just follow those simple steps and you will get to

1- when you know from AVR that your case was forward to embassy ( mm/dd/yyyy) lets take an example case forward to embassy March 20th 2009

2- go to DHL TRACK

3- then under track list click on track reference

4- put the reference in this shape EXP19MAR2009A and push track

now we seen its completed in 2oth but we searched in 19th yes because they schedule shipping day before so DHL know in advance when they will ship it so day before will be your exact day for NVC shipping your case to your embassy

i tried it this way and worked but i found 2 cases to cairo so which one is mine dosent matter as along as i can keep an eye on it for sure the month will be changing just the example above for explanation

Good luck all :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

Works great th3mo, but like you said had to play with the dates. Operator told me our case left today so I put in EXP 29... with range of 29-30 but only 2 packages showed up. Then I put in EXP28... with same range and POOF, 25 packages showed up. And YES!!!! One going to Tokyo. :dance:

Thank you,

This is great. It worked like a charm.

I tried it just now. I found one shipment that left May 1st to Vancouver and has been delivered and another that left May 4th and is in Boston right now. I was able to add myself to be emailed when the package status changes. There is no way to know if the May 1st one was mine or if it has even left yet. I received the letter from NVC dated Apr 30th so could be either or even still not gone?

Wish they would just tell you your shipping number... but I'd rather they just focused on getting that package to DHL!

Thanks for posting this information, it's fun.
