NVC

[perez525 8]

Hey guys...I was able to find out why NVC hasn't received my approved petition. I was starting to get worried and annoyed by calling 2 times a day and getting the same response. I even tried telling them that I don't have my NVC notice, and they will look it up with my social, DOB, name, and my fiances name and DOB and nothing. Also scanned a copy of my original NOA2 and emailed it to NVCresearch.gov

So today I called USCIS to find out if my petition was approved. Luckily, I was transferred to this really nice lady, Mrs.Andrews, and she checked for me and told me that my petition has not left. It's still "pending shipment" . She told me that they do this to make sure that once NVC receives it, it's ready to be sent to the consulate in DR with no problems. The shipment department was out of her hands, and there was nothing else she could do. But to call in 1 or 2 weeks and find out what's the status. She did tell me that next time I call, to just request information in regards to an approved petition pending shipment, that way I can find out if it has been shipped and I can track it from there.Hope this information is helpful, defitenely not what I wanted to hear, but it has given me a peace of mind to know it's not lost somewhere, instead it's getting prepared to get sent out to the Dominican Republic.

Good luck to all!

Thx for the info. This is one of the times during the process where you can't track anything. You just have to faith in the system. It's good you kept digging for information, I'll add this to the revised version of the NOA2 thread.

Goodness gracious..we get all versions.. i just called csr a male. Seemed to be reading a script.. All in all said nothing. Just that NVC has up to 90 days.. to finish their part.. before contacting us via email.. Are they for real. But i must say the normal time frame i have seen is about 35 days.. to get an email from NVC from time of approval. ;(

You're welcome guys!!! I'm glad I can help and pass along some peace of mind. Remember when you call USCIS to specifically ask for your pending shipment petition...that way they know what you're looking for and don't say that after it's approved it's out of their hands. It happens to not be true all the time. God bless you all

Hey chikita, did you ask to find out about your petition that's pending shipment. Let them know you wanna know if it has left or not.

I called USCIS twice and they told me they don't have that information on "pending shipment". I was very polite both times and they kept repeating the 30 days #######......
