I was told by the automated message that the NVC mailed us a letter requesting missing documents on November 1st, 2007. I still have not recieved this letter and its Nov. 8th today. Can someone tell me how long it takes to recieve a letter they have mailed? Its ridiculous that I still have not recieved it! Every passing day is delaying our visa process more and more !

Don't be angry. Because apparently you forgot to send some documents. So the delay is actually caused by you and not USCIS. ;)

We are almost at the end of the process with the NVC and our experience has been 3-4 week delays on all communications that are despatched from the NVC, even though the voice message says otherwise..

Apparently they are backed up so you just need to be patient! :)

Well, course the speed of the USPS depends on the shipping method they use:

- Penguin

- Pack mule

- Bear riding a tricycle


The moral of my story: Stick with someone who matches your own culture.

( This coming from an Arab who married an Arab from overseas... go figure. )

Hmm not very helpful - but that aside, SOMETIMES the NVC asks for things that are not in the instructions - not much someone can do about that.
