Waiting for NVC case number...

[Ivica_Marija_11 0]

On July 18th, my I130 petition for my hubby was approved. On July 22nd, I received the letter from the California Service Center regarding the approval. About 7 days ago, I called the NVC office and spoke with a customer rep there. All I wanted to ask them was what were the chances that they might already have my case number, but the automated service just doesn't have it updated yet. She told me if the automated service doesn't have a case number for me by August 9th that I should call again and speak to a human being. Honestly, I'm terrified to call them. This perticular lady was very nice and I apologized for bothering her. She said, "It was no problem". Now, my question is, do I call them on August 10th if the automated service doesn't have a case number for me or should I wait until August 18th like it says in the letter before calling them again??? Thank you!

Surprisingly the people at the NVC are very very nice and are willing to continue to see if you have a case number yet. I would call them tomorrow and if you still don't hear anything call them the week after. Patience is key in this process but there is nothing wrong with being persistent.

Ashlyn&Grevin are right. The people at NVC are super nice. I called everyday, seriously, everyday. Call as much as you want. The way I figure it is I am a paying customer in this process, if I want to call everyday I will. So don't feel bad and like I said they are super nice.

Good luck! Hope you get good news soon!
