I don't understand why people call the NVC. (Most of you already know this is our second time applying and we did get an approval the first time around). The first time we used an immigration lawyer. He never said to call the NVC.. unless there was a problem. He told us to wait about 2-4 weeks until the file was transferred and we received our number. Why is everyone calling them? We are not calling the USCIS asking for our NOA2s before they are ready... just curious... The first time our file reached the NVC within a couple weeks and we were notified.. then we applied for the K1.

So does the nvc mail you the case number then? Or do you find out from the embassy when they send it? I'm trying to avoid calling the nvc because I don't want to get on anyone's bad side lol things are already moving faster than I anticipated so I'm just thankful for that.

I got the number within about 10 days to 2 weeks to track my case.. i never needed to call them and, in fact, i was told NOT to call them by my immigration attorney unless more than four weeks had passed. I received an email from them with my tracking number.

Well I heard from a lot of people who didn't get any mail or call about the case number.

I'm just making sure and I think I'm not annoying with calling every 5days since there is people out there calling everyday. As long as they don't tell me to stop calling I think it's fine. I mean I'm lucky our form got approved fast still I don't think it's a bad thing to ask only for the case number and not the whole status.

Hey everyone! Sorry I have been away from the forum. I have been trying to get my mind off the application so I have only been periodically checking out progress to help keep my emotions in check.

I just wanted to give a huge congratulations to everyone that has been recently approved. It seems to have been a pretty slow last few days with USCIS which sucks. I hope the rest of us waiting in July start getting more approvals soon! Especially you guys at the beginning of the month!!!!

I am just now starting to break at the waiting, but I am doing my best to remain positive! I just keep reminding myself that none of us are part of the Texas backlog that took over a year to get approved!!! We will make it through!!!

I wish everyone luck and I hope we get more approvals this week's since last week seemed slow!

The july 1st adjudicator is dead or what? This is completely unbelievable. People from the end of july received a massive approval now. Those from may and June where approved after 60+ days.

Now those from july 15th - 27th are massively approved. I am happy for them. But it is frustrating when considering our situation. It's like we did a mistake by sending it earlier.

Hi, all!

Still in the UK with my love. I fly home tomorrow. We've been checking our status once per day, minus the weekend of course, and still nothing. It's astounding how some from the end of July and beginning of August have received their approvals while a July 6th NOA1 is still waiting... And NOA1s from a day or two before or after that haven't received approvals.

I'm happy for all those who have received their approvals.

~ Allison, the USC
