Oh, ok, then your lawyer will have to file forms for you, but anyway, you can get your Invoice ID, update your email address at NVC and then check your case process.

It is really already open, time to process it:-)

oh ok, indeed, I will be in contact with my lawyer. I tried calling NVC today but it's Federal Holiday, I'll call later to get my invoice ID.

Thanks for the info.

Status at NVC won't change till they will forward your case to the local consulat.

You should log in here:

https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx

If you don't have your Invoice number, call to NVC and ask for it. Then log in here, your case is definately already open. When you'll complete DS-261, you'll receive your welcome letter, that's what happened to me.

Oh ok! I will try calling NVC then. I have my case with a lawyer and he didn't say anything yet, I'm just waiting...

Since I already have a lawyer from the beginning of the process, I thought I didn't need to fill DS-261 and I just needed to wait for the welcome letter. Am I correct?

Hey, did you check your case at CEAC?

hello, yes and it still says at NVC.

Well, we don't have any F1 September members here, and all guys who has October PD just received their welcome letters, so I would be VERY surprised if it would move till december.

Hello ... I have October 19th PD and haven't received any letter
