I posted this in the June-July NOA2 to NVC thread, but I thought it might be useful here as well.

FYI... When I called the NVC yesterday to check on the status of our package they gave me a number [(202)-663-1225] to call to track the Embassy arrival date of our package. Well, I tried to call this number when I got off from work and I got the postal section. I then called the NVC to ensure I had the number right, and I did in fact have the correct number. However, the hours of operation are not what I was told yesterday. The hours of operation are 8:30 am - 5:00 pm (EST) M-F.

Short and long of it:

Call (202)-663-1225 for Visa Application Arrival status at the Embassy

Be sure you call between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm (EST) Monday through Friday, (if not you'll reach "Carl" in the mail room, and he can't help you)

I hope this helps...

Apparently they are closed from 11am to noon on Wednesdays....go figure that's when I would try to call :wacko: haha, I will call in an hour I guess!

THE PATIENT ONE IS DANCING THIS MORNING :dance::dance::dance::dance: HALLELUJAH At last!!! A new thread, a new part of the journey (yes, I know more waiting) I will get carpal tunnel if I click as many dancers as Scott and Marta --- THANKS EVERYBODY FOR YOUR PRAYERS, The newly rejuvenated and always patient Alane & Ramzis :dance::dance::dance:

Receipt Number: wac

Application Type: I129F, PETITION FOR FIANCE(E)

Current Status: Approval notice sent.

On November 6, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

Congrats! Finally you are approved! I hope the rest of your journey is much, much faster!

Okay, so I called that number that widwi posted and actually got to speak with someone there. If you do call, be prepared to wait 10 minutes or more. But, I did find out that the embassy has recorded an electronic case for us but the paperwork hasn't caught up yet. Oh well, hopefully it will get there tomorrow. At least for sure we will know something by the end of the week.

Congrats to all the recent approvals and NVC movement posted here! It's nice to see all the happy people and dancing emoticons! :dance::dance::dance:

I'm so happy that you're over with NVC Mike! Expect a fast movement from then on! I'm very sure you'll have a Dec. interview date! :thumbs:

Wow, I had written off a december interview sooo long ago, that would be great (even though the airfare will be insane)

Anyway....

:dance: :dance: Just called NVC and my petition was sent to Manila on 11-6-07!!! :dance: :dance:

Shai I believe that yours took about 7 days to make the trip to Manila. How soon after the embassy got it did you get your interview dates assigned? Did you do anything to speed the process? Is there anything I can do on the embassy website at this point?

[ If anyone needs it I have the telephone menu tree you need to dial through to get you there, i can post it if anyone would like.]

yes please!

Here is what I have. This was given to me by another member here. Hope this helps some of you, it worked perfectly for me.

Number 1-800-375-5283

your going to get an automated system...press 1,then 2, then 2, 4,2,1, then the case number starting EAC or WAC, then 1, then 1.

Tell them your inquiring about the request for evidence you got...its just a way of tricking them into telling you if the file is being touched..make sure you speak to a live person.

When I did this I didn't have to tell anyone I was calling for an RFE, I just asked my question straight away and the lady was very helpful, she had access to information the call center operators did not. Best of luck guys!

I'll have to give this a shot. Thank you. We have yet to receive NOA2.

I-129F Sent : 2007-05-03

I-129F NOA1 : 2007-05-30 (only online, no email)

Updated Address info: 2007-10-26

By looking at the active posters' timelines it looks like we should be there now.

Thanks,

Chris
