Yes, I think it is a weekend issue. Also, make sure zeros are not entered as "Ohs", and vice versa. Classic data entry mistake. Good luck!

thank you... i will wait until monday and call if nothing still happens. oh PATIENCE, i need you now!

Or u can try call the embassy,because here in our embassy i cant shedule online for K1,u have to call for an appointenment.Good luck :-) ,everything will be fine!

i'll be waiting until monday. and if still doesn't work on monday, i will definitely call the embassy! thanks so much for your replies, i really appreciate it. it takes the frustrations away

That was my first thought after I read Your post. Most likely it's not in their system yet, because it's Saturday. Don't fret. You'll be fine on Monday ;-) Good luck!

i actually thought of that a thousand times for sure you know exactly the feeling of "waiting" but thanks so much for your reply. it just feels better when you know that someone understands the excitement and frustrations you are going through with all these process... honestly, i feel better now

hello guys!

i've been reading so many posts regarding scheduling an appointment online. i followed every step provided but i can't schedule an appointment. i always end up with this error message:

"No valid record can be found for the entered receipt number. Please validate that your receipt number is correct and that you have paid the correct amount for the visa which you are applying for."

i paid my visa last friday at around 3pm thru BPI. i was reminded that i should schedule it the next day at around 1pm since i paid later than 3pm. however, even up to now i still cannot schedule my interview. and it's really making me upset i entered my passport number on the receipt number and even tried the receipt number provided when i downloaded the visa slip fee from the internet but none of them worked!

i was just wondering if anybody else is experiencing the same thing...

also, could it be possible that i paid on a friday so i should wait until monday, since saturday and sunday are not their operating days?

should i call the embassy to ask about this?

i need some advice please...

thanks in advance friends

guys thank you all for the information, replies, encouragement and prayers! everything is moving forward now! got case number last monday and now i am eligible to schedule an interview! yehey! happy bee! lol

Dear, you may also try doing what we did. Scan your noa2 copy and send them then call them after 30 minutes and most likely you'll get your case number.

actually we already send them a copy of ourr noa2. but we will send another 1 on monday then call after 30 mins. thanks so much for all the help!

Maybe you should call Vermont Service Center and tell them, maybe it got lost in transit. And yes keep the faith.

ok we'll do that too! thanks so much

Have you called them for a service request? You are outside their timeline, they should be able to help you in some way.

my fiance in states have been calling nvc everyday but they keep on giving him the same answer "it's not yet in our system". we also emailed their inquiry and research team but still haven't got any news from them. i'm just praying that we all get through our journeys fast and smooth. haha. i'm still hoping to hear good news from my fiance on monday though! i'll keep the faith up high!

That's great that you go approved. My fiancé is the Phils too. When did you file and receive your NOA1 and NOA2? You should fill out your timeline so we can all see and compare!!

congrats!!!

oh yeah! i filled out my timeline just now

i'll post it here anyway...

I-129F Sent : 2012-07-20

i'm happy for them though

there kind of funny at nvc we were approved 2/7/13 and i called every day after a week past., but every time i called they said they have'nt received it. finally one person there told me to email a scan copy of my noa2. once i did that, the very next day when i called they ask me a few details about me and my fiance like name date of birth and email address, and told me they just received it and gave me our case number. u can try this if you like. just go to nvcresearch@state.gov and email a scan copy of your noa2. then call the next day, it just might pop up like mines did. like i said there kind of funny that way. good luck, and may God bless you

congratulations...

but i feel so jealous. we got approved january 22 but nvc said they dont have our case yet. we also emailed their research team but no response and still nvc has not yet receive ours yet

Hi everyone

I am petitioning for a fiance visa and applied in June 2012. Our I-129F was approved in January and we got a notice (NOA2) on 1/22/2013. Today is 2/22/2013 and it has been exactly 31 days since NOA2 and I have been calling NVC and DOS every day and they have not received it yet. I have emailed NVCResearch@state.gov with a scanned copy of my NOA2 three times (three emails) in the past 3 weeks. Still no responce. Furthermore, I have made an appointment at the USCIS office in our state and visited them. The USCIS officer told me it was approved on 1/22/2013 and was processed to be mailed out on 1/28/13. He said "I cannot see anything beyond that". Basically he told me it is out of USCIS hands and that I need to follow up with NVC at this point. The NOA2 approval letter says the petition has been approved and forwarded to the consulate (in Turkey). I think all finace visas go through NVC regardless of what the NOA2 says. However, I have also emailed the consulate about our file and they replied a few days ago that they have not received our file. I don't know what to do at this point. I call NVC every day and they tell me I just need to wait. It is not lost. I have looked at hundreds of timelines on this website and I have not seen a single person whose timeline indicates such a long delay from NOA2 to NVC receipt. This is really worrying me. Any tips or advice would greatly be appreciated.

we were approved the same date and have been calling nvc almost everyday but have not yet heard any good news either. plus we also sent an email to nvc inquiry and research team but still no response from them. i hope we'll get the good news soon.

good luck to us!

if you are outside of manila and is planning to stay in a hotel for your medical, start searching for cheap and good hotels.

continue reading up on what to expect in the US, specially in the state you are going to stay. search for places you can go to or things you can do while there. read up on updated dmv manual.

im currently waiting for a MNL# and that's what I have been doing, except for looking for hotels.

thanks for the reply

honestly i've prepared all of those since we've been waiting for more than a month now but thanks so much for the info, as sson as i read your reply i compared the things i have with the list you provided

how long have you been waiting for your case number?

i hope we'll get ours soon! goodluck to us!

Most likely stuck in AP at NVC. Call once a week. Get your documents in order for the interview, that should be in a couple of months.

sorry. but could you please elaborate more on this line "Get your documents in order for the interview, that should be in a couple of months." what do you mean get our documents? from where?

we got our noa2 on feb. 14 until now we dont heard anything ...let me know if you got yours...

oh you're from PI too

sure i will!

goodluck to both of us!

hi everyone

i'm new here. so forgive me if i'm posting this in the wrong discussion. i'm just worried about our case. we got approved last january 22 and we've been trying to contact NVC but agents always tell my fiance it's not yet in their system. we tried to call USCIS as well but the agent told him they already sent it to NVC. now i'm just wondering where could our case be.

please anyone... enlighten us...

thanks in advance
