Hi guys, I have tried several times to contact the Consulate in Sydney on their number 1300 145 166 and all I get is a busy tone. I called the NVC on Friday and they told me our Petition was forwarded to the Consulate on the 16th of August and they gave me our SYD case number, but I haven't received any word. Am I supposed to have received anything by mail by now? Is there any other number to call the Consulate on?

Thanks

If you can't get through on the phone then try emailing them. It may take a few days for a response but I've had to email them a few times when I was going through K-1 and found them very helpful when they replied. I can't remember their email by heart, don't have time to find it right now but it should be on their website somewhere. Hope you hear something soon :)

Finally time for AOS.......

12/07/11 Sent AOS package

12/09/11 AOS package delivered

12/22/11 Received letter for Biometrics

01/04/12 Biometrics in Phoenix

01/31/12 Received email update from USCIS saying that we've been scheduled for an interview

02/03/12 Got an email saying card production had been ordered for my EAD...now just to wait for the card...

Thanks! I've just sent them an email, hopefully I'll hear back from the soon! One to sydneyiv@state.gov and one to support-australia@ustraveldocs.com Got both those addresses from the Consulate website. The second address I received an email back straight away with a link to cgifederal.secure.force.com and a password to create an account where I can create a profile and login and track the status of a Visa application.

Hey,
