Jeff and Lenie

I just looked at the website http://203.177.135.10/ivappointment/login.asp and it told me my Medical Date is February 26 and Interview is March 4. Could this be? It seems so early...and the embassy hasn't even received the petition yet.

Oh well....

Wohoo for me!

Finally NVC gave us MNL# and sending the petition within the week to the Embassy.

Who's beeehind do I kiss and find out where my petitions at?

How do I find out the tracking # of the petition?

Thanks

I think we are probably in the same shipment going to Manila. The DHL tracking number is 9341426496. I am currently having it tracked.

Jeff.. Call the DOS 202-663-1225, dial 1 then 0 to speak to a visa specialist.

If tell them you want to check on the status of a visa and give them your receipt number from the NOA1/2

They will tell you the new MNL number and you can ask for specific information like date of actions. When the NVC got it, when it left, when it arrived at the embassy etc.. they will also be able to tell you when the interview date is.. whenever the embassy gets around to issueing them agian.

Thanks for the information. I was just checking out the Manila embassy website and they say this in their FAQ:

"Can an applicant request an earlier visa appointment?

If an applicant wishes to advance the visa interview appointment, he/she should write the Embassy or call the Immigrant Visa Call Center to request an earlier appointment. Requests for earlier appointments are granted only if there is a space available. Fiancé(e) visa applicants are scheduled for interviews only on Fridays. "

I wonder if this would really work, or if they ever have space available. We are planning on getting married in May, so an April interview is still manageable, but March would be much nicer. Especially being a 23 year old college student and I have to work around my school and internship schedule.

Well, we finally have our MNL case number from NVC. It looks like we will probably have an april interview date. finally it feels like we are close to being together.

How did you find out that NVC had received your case number and get your MNL number? We got our NOA2 at the same time. I just called the NVC automated calling thing and they still don't have a record of my case. Do I need to call and talk to someone instead?

APPROVED !!!!!!

received hard copy in mail today. of course the webstie still says pending. no emails etc.

just hard copy in mail
