Hello everyone, Hope someone here will be able to help me with some info. I read a lot here, you are a wonderful set of people helping each other here. Our K1 was sent in to vermont last year septemer(2008). We got our first NOA 2 weeks after . Then we got our 2nd NOA on the 19th of February 2009. The notice was send back to USCIS by the post office because my Fiance was over seas working. We found out and he then called USCIS and gave them another address that it should be send to. We got it (2nd notice of approval) in march (notice date 12th March 2009). Problem is it has been 9 weeks now and we are not getting a package as yet from the consulate in my country. We called the 603 number first they told us that it is not there as yet, Then someone else told us that it was sent to my consulate in my country, Still did not hear aything. So i called NVC again , this time a gentlman told me that my documents were forwarded to my country since the 6th of February 2009 and he even gave me my case number(the number i have to bring to my consulate. That has been 1 month now. So i called Nvc againand i am still hearing that it is not there so i don know who to call or what to believe. The valid date on my 2nd NOA is the 31st january2009 to June 1st 2009. will it be a problem if the date is passed and i dont hear from them. I wrote my embassy by email and got back an automated responce, but nothing personal as yet. Does anyone here in the visa family has any answers for us. We are worried and dont know where else to turn

WHAT COUNTRY???

Then it's time to contact the consulate in your country. It is out of the NVC's hands. They simply processed your file and then shipped it to your consulate probably a few weeks ago. They have no way of keeping track of what the consulate is doing with your file.

You say you have been calling NVC....I don't think NVC has information about if the package reached the consulate..you have to call DOS...202-663-1225 and give them your new case number. If THEY tell you its not at the consulate yet, you probably need to start calling the consulate.

Your case is at the consulate. DO NOT depend on the consulate to send you anything, my wife never has received her packet 3 (we still own the flat in Ukraine and it never came) You can download all the forms and instructions from the embassy website. The consulate will grant you an extention of the petition approval. Write them, refer to the NVC number you have, and ask for an extension, you can explain the details in the email.

Get your interview documents ready and follow the instructions to make an appointment.

PS, calling the NVC or USCIS is a waste of time, in case you didn't already know that. Email or call the consulate.

Not necessarily. Not every embassy has instructions available on their website to download. The embassy in Montreal is an example. Some force you to wait until you receive direct instructions from them in order for your case to proceed. E-mailing your consulate is a good start, but you can also call DOS and receive updates regarding your case, I would suggest calling them to see if they have any additional information. It would also help to know what consulate you are working through. Perhaps you can check with your regional forum to find out if this is a typical response from your consulate and if there is a downloadable packet 3 available online.
