When you call CSC. One of the first choices is. "Are you calling about a petition that USCIS has Approved or Denied?"

Choose this option. Then follow the directions. I think the next choice is #1.

Do not need the FRE trick!

I called , they said mine was sent to NVC on October 26.

I just called CSC and she said my case was already sent but couldn't give me a date, she just said it was sent shortly after approval. She said I could call NVC for more information. It sounds like she just told me the "normal" nothing new sorta thing! but, I guess I will call NVC now and see whats goin on.

Do i receive a touch when it is sent to NVC? or does anything happen online or anything? or is the only way I find out is by calling NVC??

Thanks everyone!

First of all.... CONGRATS! I hope it has actually been mailed and not sent back to the "mail room".... those guys are clueless as you know.

I called USCIS yesterday and was "escalated" to a second person after the first one said my petition should have been sent directly to the embassy and not to NVC :wacko: The second person could only say that as far as she can tell from the information it has been sent and should be there soon, just wait longer! AGHHHH I HATE THESE PEOPLE!!!

I got in touch with my congressman's office yesterday too and I just faxed them my information release form so they can do an inquiry on my behalf. That's about all I know to do now. Even the person on the phone at USCIS claimed that CSC has no phone numbers and there is no way she could contact them. And that if it hasn't been 90 days they can't even check on it. :angry:

UGH! I swear they will drive you insane! :wacko::help:

I actually spoke with the same person I spoke with on Friday, so I'm pretty sure he was giving me the correct info. But you are right, they are for sure clueless!

Have you tried calling using the RFE trick? It's the only way I can ever get a hold of anyone at CSC. Either way it really sounds like your petition has been sent somewhere - either the embassy or to NVC. I'm planning on calling NVC on Thursday to see if ours arrived. Keep the faith, it sounds like you are on your way :):thumbs:

I received notice in the mail today that our case was received by NVC and was being forwarded to Bucharest within a week.

Our NOA2 was 10-15-07 from CSC for those that are tracking timelines..

I was surprised actually. Less than 2 weeks from CSC to NVC. Much better than some other people have been experiencing..

We're just lucky. I've never contacted either CSC or NVC at all. Early on I resigned to the fact that it was a futile exercise unless you get to a point where you really think something's wrong or your case is lost. Luckily we never ran into that, just waited 4 months for NOA2 like everyone else.. :)
