Best method of checking case status

[Cassandra+Yuibi 0]

I've sent an e-mail about my case to the NVC since it's been a week since my NOA2 on our K1 petition. I sent it on Sunday night and have yet to receive a reply. On the NVC's contact information they stated that e-mail is their preferred method, but is it really that efficient in comparison to calling?

So! My question basically is:

Is e-mailing for case status to the NVC recommended?

What is the estimated time is takes to receive a reply?

Should we all just forget about e-mailing and call in?

I did call in on Monday afternoon just to check, but I was a little bit hopeful that when my case does arrive (I was told it hadn't) that I'll receive a reply to my e-mail.

Thanks for taking the time to help us out!

K1 cases don't last very long at the NVC because they are forwarded to the embassy. Right now they are very behind on replying e-mails so your best bet is to call them, everyday if you have to. That way you cannot only find out what your case # at the NVC is, but also when they sent it to the embassy.

Thank you very much! I'll be giving them a call then. At least their call center is muuuuuuch easier to call than CSC. (which was only open during the time I work- so I had to call on my lunch break )
