WOW GOOD FOR YOU !!! :dance:

I called and was told there's no record of my case yet at NVC. I see you waited 33 days, so with me only waiting 14 days, I was being a bit impatient. So, I will call possibly on Wednesday next week. They should have it by then. :whistle:

Thanks guys !

I emailed AND called them 2-3 times a week. Today it was bussy for hours but I kept

calling .....wasn't going to give up ...lol... Dialed about 20 times today until I got through.

Hang on, it will be over soon !

Not being found in the system gave me a lot of anxiety, it's that 'noone knows

where my papers are' kind of feeling.

But it will be ok ! :D

Make sure you talk to a live operator while checking your K1/K3 NVC case number. NVC does not update the IVR the automoted system as K1 or K3 does not stay for a long period of time at NVC.

Good Luck!!!
