Depending on which operator you get, they will tell you it takes either 15 or 20 business days--3 or 4 weeks, so they won't do much of anything to intervene for you yet.

yea iheard that as well, but since it's an email, maybe they just check on their system and might not be there perhaps.. dont know, sounds weird.. i think that some people after me got theirs delivered

I check their automated voice response every day--9 days so far--but nothing, and I also talk to a real person every few days--I will say this--they are consistent in their answers !!

There is no rhyme or reason why any of us get scheduled when we do, and there isn't anything you can do until you are beyond the standard time, so just keep calling.

Just remember when calling you cannot go about it the same way and get the automatic voice reponse as IR-1/CR-1. K1 is an exception and it won't show up in their system as far as I know. Get to talk to someone there. Sometimes it takes more than a week for it to arrive, other times you'll find out about it after it has left NVC. In that case DOS will have more detailed information on your K1 regarding embassy arrival if you can't find it on the DHL webpage.

You are so right--I had missed the fact it was a K-1 petition.

Patience and Persistence. Keep up with the calls.
