Calling nvc

[Abcd1234 102]

So if you call nvc after noa2, do they tell case is recieved before even they allot case no ,

or 

 When case no. is alloted already only then they can tell that on x date it was recieved and y date it was given case no?

  Thanks

Make sure your email is up to date with them, then give them a call 10 business days after noa2. If they don't have it they'll tell you it can take up to 8 weeks etc, thank them and try giving them a call every two to three days. Best times to call are right at opening and near closing time. Once you have your case number, check on the CEAC status page to track the status of your case, once it days it's in transit it takes 1-5 business days to arrive at your embassy.
