Post NOA2 NVC Question

[DaveTX 2]

So I finally got through to the NVC and gave them my USCIS number and they had the case. They gave me my NVC case number but what is odd is that the guy said they received the case 4 days before I got NOA2. Is that normal? He said he didn't know when it would be processed or anything which isn't particularly surprising.

Is that normal?

Doesn't surprise me - as long as they have it, that's what matters.

That's true. I just wish I knew how long before they send it out to the Bangkok embassy! My fiance is chomping at the bit

Call NVC every few days. They might not know anything today, but perhaps tomorrow or the next day. I myself called every 2 or 3 days until they told me that the case was on its way to BKK.

I called yesterday and a woman told me it was in "Additional Processing" with no specified end date. I called today and got the same woman who told me it was sent out yesterday

I think the customer service reps really only know if it's at NVC or not, or sent out or not. Anything else is hit or miss.

Either way, YEAH!

If that was NVC that told you it was sent out yesterday, then it probably was. There were about 100 petitions shipped out of NVC on Friday, maybe more. I mean at least 100 embassies were shipped packages from NVC. Each package might contain more than one petition. Good luck.

BTW I did see some shipment to Thailand in DHL tracking website, but no way to tell whose it was, unfortunately. NVC won't tell you the tracking number, which I find ridiculous. It would save a lot of people calling repeatedly to NVC. I myself called NVC every day, sometimes twice a day, I talked to supervisor, I wrote them a registered letter, and I finally e-mailed my congressman. The day after I e-mailed my congressman, my petition was sent... a coinky-dink or no? who can say?
