NVC has no record of my file.. am I being impatient?

[deleted 0]

Good day: I received my NOA2 within 34 days of filing. Today is March 18 and the NOA2 is dated March 1 saying that the "above petition has been approved and we have sent the original visa petition to the Dept of State National Visa Center (NVC), 32 Rochester..."

Today I felt anxious so I called the NVC automated system to find information about my case. I entered in the 10-digit CIS Case ID number and it came back with "we either have no record of this file or it has not yet been received by our office."

Should I just be patient or is 18 days long enough for them to have at least received it? Should I speak to an operator or just wait until 4 weeks have passed (as it instructs on the document)?

Thank you for your help.

For K-1s the case number is not loaded on to the AVR.

You will need to speak to an operator to get that info.

Good luck!

Thanks, you were right! I called and held 18min 43 seconds for an operator, and he told me that the case was sent to Guatemala last week. Sheesh! They could have told me! Thanks for the tip!
