Justin, I was in the same boat as you. DHL said that our petition arrived on April 3, and I called 2 weeks later and they told me they only received the electronic file. Well almost 1 month after they received it they sent out packet 3. So I would bet your packet 3 will be mailed out very soon. I would call one time a week, until you are sure. I know the same feeling you have, I was so worried that ours was lost, but it wasn't, the people at the consulate just give you a general response, until they actually send out packet 3.

Good Luck!!!!!

It can take up to four weeks for a case to be logged into the system at the Consulate and identified as "in HCMC".

It's getting close... they'll get to you! :)

justin728jn,

What was the reason for the long wait between your NOA2 and the NVC shipping your case out to HCMC? Security checks? I saw your NOA2 date of Feb 6, 2006, but your case didn't ship out of NVC until Apr 17, 2006.

NOA2 Feb 6, 2006

NVC forward to HCM City on April 17

No reason for concern on the delay in HCMC thus far. Just check around on the signatures of other Vietnam VisaJourney members, and you can pretty well piece together a general time frame for things from this point forward.

Where does your fiancee reside in Vietnam? This can factor into mailing time for packet 3 & 4.

Best of luck to you!

justin728jn,

I figured your NOA2 had to be a typo.

If she doesn't receive the packet 3 in the mail 1 month after the consulate mailing date, she can go to the consulate in HCMC and request one in person.

I can't seem to find this in any of the guides or anything... how do you find out your dhl tracking number? I'd like to find out what happened with my K3 packet. :) Thanks and ttyl,

Let me show you how to get your tax returns the easy way

aussiewench's thread for kicking butt in the NVC ('cause i'm too lazy to keep looking it up - haha)

Our DS-3032 email to the NVC

02 Jan 2006 - Married

...----===::: CR-1 :::===---...

22 May 2006 - Case # Assigned @ NVC

14 Jul 2006 - DS-230 Package Received by USC

We stopped pursuit of CR-1 to pursue K3/AOS. For us, both required the same document, we could only have one valid copy, and the K3 was moving faster.

See profile for the details up to and in between the events listed here.

...---===::: K3 :::===---...

17 May 2006 - Date NVC says petition shipped to embassy

18 May 2006 - Case # Assigned @ NVC

01 Jul 2006 - Packet "3" received from embassy

18 Jul 2006 - Medical

21 Sept 2006 - K3 Interview Date (APPROVED)

27 Sept 2006 - Received Visa

06 Oct 2006 - Arrives in the USA! Finally home together. :)

(Truncated timeline - sig too long. See profile for all details.)
