Hi,

I've read an article regarding packet 3, stated that they don't send any packet at all instead they'll notify the beneficiary and petitioner through an email being that packets that were sent before get lost most of the time. I tried looking for that article which I have read but I can't find it anymore. I have scheduled my interview this Feb 20th but I didn't receive any packet nor an email.

What we did was, we called NVC and got our case #... and we went on with the process of paying the fee and calling to schedule for an interview.. This is also the step a lot have taken here in VJ, we just tried it.

I am not an expert or anything but I'm just sharing to you what we have done.

Hope our experience helped you in anyway..

Have a good day!

I am planning to take that route too as soon as we receive our NOA2, still waiting though, hope next week, if i'll get an RFE its ok, means they're already reading our petition. If approved,..i will not wait for the packet, soon as we got our MNL Case #, then good to go for visa paying at BPI, then schedule online for interview. At least a little idea on what to do next.

When we called USCIS before about the status of our petition they said it's better not to hear anything till we get NOA2, that means all documents are complete.

Glad to know you are one step ahead as far as getting info on which route to take...

By the way, what city is your fiance located?

thank you both for your input.

joeche - when can i begin to call nvc for my case number? dont we have to wait until the noa 2 arrives first (which you say will come in an email?) tell me pls if this is correct:

noa 2 is sent via email - as soon as that arrives i can call vsc to get my case number and go ahead and complete some online forms, pay fee and schedule interview? then we have to schedule a medical exam as well correct? thank you both again - this stuff gets confusing! even with the guides! :)
