Cool! Thank you. Let's hope the following process will be fast now.

I think the general consensus on VJ is to wait at least 10 days(business days I believe) before calling NVC and also to ignore the 35 day wait time that is stated in the recorded message when calling.

The NVC number to call is: 603-334-0700 you will need: SRC receipt number from USCIS Name and Date of Birth of Beneficiary Name and Date of Birth of Petitioner There open until Midnight.

You have to be careful with that without an interview date. The consulate my fiance needs to go to requires the medical 10 days prior to the interview, other consulates require it the same day as the interview.

It looks like your ok, I found the following for the "United Kingdom" in the Embassy Info section:

New info as of mid-October 2010: The visa interview will not be scheduled until the Embassy has received the results of the medical examination, so get the medical acheduled early, but after you have returned the forms and checklist so your files will match up.

New info as of June 2011: You will be asked to bring your Police Certificate to the medical appointment.

I just got off the phone with NVC, apparently I had the wrong prefix to my case number....I had LTZ and the the actual is LPZ, I guess since I speak with a kind of heavy NY accent the T and P sound the same, therefore when I originally verified and later called 2 more times the customer service reps heard my T as a P and were able to bring up my case.

I now can see it on CEAC, and its still at NVC.

Glad to know you have the right number!

Congrats to all who are moving along now... once things are at the embassy its very close..

I didnt expect NVC to take more than a few days.. hope we hear soon.

Mar 2011 - After 5mths denied for lost docs - Attempts to follow up failed. Mar 18 2012 - I-129F sent - No sign of NOA1 but they have banked the check...Jul 24 - Update - USCIS has located our file
Infopass Apt - they sorted through everything - our 2011 and 2012 file keep getting mixed up - getting us a Case# (still waiting) Dec- Infopass Appt- expecting to get a case # in about a week ..Still no Case number
Mar 2013 Infopass - advised file was in a box somewhere,and it would be quicker for us to refile. Life gets in the way... New petition submitted July 2014 .

Since I have the #'s I need from the NVC can my fiancé fill out the next set of papers or do we have to wait for anything else?

Yes. He can use it to call Knightsbridge and book his medical while you wait for it to be sent to the consulate. He can also fill out his visa application, pay the fees and submit the readiness form once he has his medical appointment (it can be entered onto the form as a future date).

He's coming home soon and your family will be complete :)
