Are any documents needed for submission to NVC? Read online and talked to NVC representative. Stated that once the visa fee, and ds160 are completed. No other documents must be given to NVC. Trying to stay ahead of the game. 

no documents needed to send to NVC

It does.  Moscow is supposed to arrive on Monday, but Kiev on Friday 🤷🏻‍♂️... our case in in New York this morning 

Now our case shows Ready through the ceac tracker. I'm still going to email the embassy to make sure they have our case and we can begin gathering the paperwork.

Yea but it's unlikely it doesn't show up in the DHL tracker. Anyways lets hope for the best. Keep in touch.

I just checked for the 20th time today through the ceac tracker and it changed to Ready 😁.

Mine changed there too and that's because they received it electronically. You still need to track down the hard copy.

So how important is the hard copy over the electronic copy? Does it mean that we can't get ahead of ourselves with the p3 packet that is online and need to wait for the embassy to contact us?

Hey, another Boston-UK relationship.  And your dates are so similar to ours!  I hope that means we get our case number soon too! Congratulations  

I know! I was just about to say that to you too! Call tomorrow towards the end of the day and Tuesday morning. This wait is the worst, praying for you but I'm sure they will get it soon! Also, don't know if this helps but I called the non-immigrant phone line ending in 0888. All other times my fiancé called the other line and they told him they didn't have it. Might just be a coincidence but worth a try!

Just called NVC again and still nothing.  Today is 4 weeks since NOA2... When do you think I should call USCIS?  Thanks

Ours took 23 days and you are technically still within the legit timeframe of 6 weeks. All you can do is be patient because unfortunately some cases take longer than others.

Not sure, you may be able to proceed but I believe they won't reach out to you until they receive the hard copy.

I think you're safe at this point to message the embassy and ask them for next steps and P3. If they have received your file, they will provide it for you. If they haven't, they will respond accordingly.

I don't think that necessarily has to be the case. For whatever reason, maybe a technical issue, it wasn't showing the tracking but if it says Ready, you should be able to proceed.

 

This tracking method we use, after all, is not something provided by NVC to the public. Its a rogue kind of way to follow our files up to the point that they arrive at the Embassy for peace of mind.

Thanks!  I have been calling that non-immigrant line as well.  I'll try again tomorrow and maybe give USCIS a call as well.  Good luck getting everything together from here!  Let's keep in touch!

Thank you.  Trying to be patient and not worry about anything because I know it's normal and happens to so many people but it's hard to see so many breeze through this step and not think "is something wrong?"  Hopefully, we'll get it before that 6 week mark or I really will worry lol.

Agree you should give USCIS and see if they shipped. It would give you a little peace of mind, at least to know maybe it's at NVC desk now waiting to get processed.

Do you know when they're open until?  And do I have to ask for a tier 2?

 

Thank you!!

I believe they are open until 8pm my time so they are open for 6 more hours

 

and no, I believe Tier 1 and Tier 2 see the same updates as far as shipping.
