I thought I'd post this report not only to encourge those of you who are waiting, but also to share my joy. :dance:

We received NOA2 on April 12, and that was the first time we could see out case online since filing in January. If you're still waiting to see yours, hang it there.......I know it's like walking down a never ending street blindfolded - makes you feel a tiny bit insecure. :blink:

NBC sent our file to NVC on April 17, they received it on April 20, assigned case # and entered it on the system the same day. Of course I asked them when they would send it on to London and they suggested I check back with them on April 24 (after the weekend). They needed to review the immigration process before sending it on to London.

I called NVC on April 24 and they confirmed that the file was sent to London on April 21. :dance::dance::dance:

I already have my medical booked, and packet 3 papers prepared with check list and declaration of readines!! .........and my husband has DHL'd to me the necessary interview documents. :star: Did I forget anything?

We are getting through this, and you will too. :thumbs:

I feel Good...........like the moon is shining just for me!

NVC case# was asked for when I booked the medical, but I said I didn't have it right now, so she just said I could let her have it later..........no problem at all. They did take a credit card # for late cancellation or no show just to cover themselves (they do that with everybody). She also advised that if I wanted to change the date that was also possible with enough notice.

I think the service center (where we sent our I-130) has to do with where the petitioner lives. My husband is in California. (We sent the I-129-F to Missouri - NBC). I guess the interview/consulate is based on where the beneficiary lives. I'm currently staying in Quebec.
