Thanks! I sent that email yesterday. Since we already have everything included in packet 3 list, can we pay the visa fee and schedule the appointment? Or do we need to wait for the embassy to respond to my email?

I am emailing the DS 160 confirmation page and bio page of my fiance's passport to the embassy - but what am I inculding in the body of the email? Amd I requesting something? Packet 3?

HELP!

Hi,

When I am emailing the confirmation page of the DS-160 and the bio page of my fiance's passport, what am I including in the body of the email?

Am I requesting something? Packet 3?

I am in a somewhat similiar situation. My case got to NVC on 4/8 and was assigned case numbers 4/10. Since then it has been "undergoing normal administrative processing." It's concerning because other Jamaica filers are being sent to the consulate within several days of receiving case numbers. Tomorrow it will have been there for 3 weeks.

Ugh, I'm so

Ugh, I'm so sorry. I really hope it gets sent soon.

I agree with Ethline- see if your Congressional office can make an inquiry for you, maybe they will get a more direct answer...

Yeah. I just have no energy or hope. I can barely take care of myself let alone construct a decent letter for a congressman or put any more false hope into anything else. Because of all of this stress we are fighting pretty badly. He is currently not talking to me, but I'm certain its my fault for taking all of my emotions out on him. Nonetheless he's not there for me through this right now. I'm struggling badly at work, I'm late everyday. I can't fall asleep until late, then I oversleep and getting out of bed is virtually impossible. I am neglecting my dog. I'm crying uncontrollably as I write this. I don't know what to do.

I don't know what's going on anymore. I'm still at NVC. People have been sent to the Kingston embassy from NVC recently, so it's not that they aren't accepting petitions at the moment.

What can I do when they are telling me "sorry there's no timeframe for AP, we will notify you once it's sent?"

I'm falling apart.

Still at NVC. Administrative processing is what I'm told. What does this mean?

I called again this morning, and got a rude customer service representative. Today I was told "Your case is undergoing administrative processing. Unfortunately there is no timeline I can give you. You will be notified when the case is sent to the consulate."

SERIOUSLY? What is wrong that my case is stuck in administrative processing at NVC while others are breezing by me? I can't F****ING take this anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What? Are you serious. I honestly thought that you just hadn't updated you account. I'm so sorry to hear this. I am over here going crazy out of my mind today is my birthday and it kills me that 207 days after filling my petition I am still without my love. I know I should feel grateful that I am at least out of TSC but in a way it's very little comfort. I mean those that file in California in December and January of this year are with there love ones already. I know very well there's still plenty of people who filed before me that are still waiting to get out of TSC and I just feel sick to my stomach about it but still I am so frustrated today.

I'm serious.

I've called every business day since the 10th - the date the case numbers were assigned - and they keep telling me a variety of things:

"Just waiting to be sent out."

"Still undergoing administrative processing."

"It should be sent soon, we don't process them here so they are sent out pretty quickly."

"Please allow two weeks from the date we assigned the case numbers."

"Call back Friday, it should be on it's way soon."

I feel your frustration Ethline, I really do. Everything about my process from NOA2 has taken so much longer than others, that it's hard to not worry about what's holding it up. Or whether it will get lost or something. My anxiety and depression because of this is becoming unbearable. 222 days of this and seems like many more to come.

AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ETHLINE!

My case hasn't left NVC. Arrived 4/7, case number assigned 4/10. And it's still there. I don't understand.

From what I've ready that it takes a few hours after you case number has been assigned before it works on the site. You can try tonight or tomorrow.

What do I do with the beneficiary ID number and the Invoice ID number?

Got my case numbers today!

OK great do you have a case number assigned yet. I was thinking about calling but mines went out two days later so I doubt they have it.

The woman I spoke to told me I could call back in a week for case numbers. She said they assign K1 case numbers pretty quickly (1-2 weeks) and send them out to the consulate after that.

I think I'll call back Friday.

You should try calling by the end of this week -- maybe it will have been received!

NVC received it yesterday 4/7!!!!

I must've called too early yesterday.

Wahoooooo!!!!

I don't know why it took so long for them to send it to NVC, and why it hasn't been received! Calling now.

On the phone now - got through after 10 tries.

Our cases were sent to NVC the same day.Wonder why it hasn't been received, maybe they haven't updated the system yet. They received mine today 4/7/2015.

I don't know why it took so long for them to send it to NVC, and why it hasn't been received! Calling now.

Thanks for starting this! I tried to start this a few weeks ago, but there weren't any Sept. TSC's except for me and a couple of others.

Here's my update:

NOA2: March 20th

Sent to NVC: April 1st

NVC has not received the petition. I called for the 2nd time today and I was told to wait 35 days. I'm going to call every week.

Just to confirm: after NVC receives it, the three numbers we need are:

1. Case number

2. Invoice number

3. Beneficiary ID number

I want this to move FASTER already!

Is this wait the same for K1s?

NOA2 3/20/15

Sent to NVC 4/1/15

Called NVC today and it hasn't been received yet. Was told to wait 35 days. BAH!

I'll call again Friday.

Yours was sent out on the April 1 as well? Curious to see how quickly they process the petitions at NVC.

Yes - it was sent to NVC on April 1. I'm a September filer but I've joined you guys here to get more info on the next steps.

Hope this is okay!

Welcome aboard. Good luck on your next step..

Thank you!

Ahhh - I think I am one of the people who isn't getting the notificiation? Grrrr! I would have thought with an NOA2 of 3/20 I would have had a status change by now. What could be holding up my petition being sent to NVC?

More worries. I hate it.

This morning I received 3 text messages from 1:30am to 2:30am every 30 mins and an email at 4am telling me my case has been sent to NVC!

YAY!

Hi, yes we did. It went to William and I believe it was a text, followed by an email advising of an update in the status of our case, which he then checked online. The case status changed from "My case was approved...." to "My case has been sent ...." Something along those lines. Apparently some people don't get the notification, despite having signed up for it. It may be worth monitoring your case status online.

Thank you! It's fine to close the thread - and I'll pop over to the other one.

Thanks LionessDeon

We also called today, after 56 unsuccessful attempts to get through on Friday night. We got the same information - give it 35 days. So we will be calling again tomorrow. Strangely, today the call went through in about 10 attempts and hold time was 1.16 minutes.

Our case was shipped quite quickly out of the service center. Hoping it doesn't take them too long to assign a case number so we can get moving. The agent I spoke to was extremely friendly, though. It seems that it takes 12-14 days to ship the approved petitions out, going by other timelines. We just assumed we were lucky (or that TSC just knew we couldn't wait to get the hell out of there).

Hi wbeem,

Did you receive a notice from USCIS that the case was shipped from TSC to NVC? In what form - letter, email?

Thanks!
