Lost paperwork?

[shazj1 2]

Fiance just called NVC for an update. NVC have tried to locate our file but they have stated they don't know where it has gone. If anyone has any advice to give us, we would appreciate it alot. I cannot believe how useless these people are.

Did you confirm that they have received it first ?

NVC have said they have no record of receiving it. We sent them a copy of our NOA2 as they requested it to assist us in locating the paperwork. Today, my fiance was told that they cannot locate anything so to go back to USCIS and ask them to help. Called USCIS and they said we should contact the consulate. Contacted the consulate who said they cannot do anything.

How long ago did you send your package to NVC? It can take them a few weeks to log it into their system.

Get your Congressperson or State Senator's office to call USCIS and give them Hell. And when they find it ask for your case to be expedited through London to make up for lost time.

We were approved on 1st march(the petition that is). We've been waiting since then. To be honest, NVC actually did try to look for the paperwork..or atleast they said they did. I called them today as it costed me an arm and a leg to call london. To think that USCIS actually suggested to call london, as if they were able to magically retrieve it across an ocean

Fiance has written to his Congressperson. Since USCIS told me that it can take upto 90 days(which is absolutely ridiculous) for NVC to receive the paperwork, will they actually consider an expedite request?

USCIS error is a valid reason for an expedite, but on the other hand once NVC have sent it on to the consulate it is out of USCIS's hands. And first you would have to get them to admit to a mistake.

The most important thing right now is for them to find your paperwork. Can your Fiance do a 'walk in' to either a Senators or Congresspersons regional office in his area? At the very least he needs to call someone to help you out with this. A letter just won't get the priority that you need to get this sorted.

90 days is BS, as you well know. A K1 petition should be in and out of NVC in a matter of days.

Hope you can get this sorted.

Thanks ameribrit..I wish it was atleast in NVC's hands in order for it to get out of their hands. Anyway, he called the congressperson's office and they asked for all details to be faxed out to them and they will take care of it. Ameribrit, I can't thank you enough for your advice. I noticed your timeline and I hope your interview goes well.
