How you get packet 3 and 4 depends on the country. Some mail it out, others you can go online and download the forms, others you have to come and pick it up.

:whistle: yes...mam

Well, allplewow, it is important to note that from embassy to embassy the process is different.

I'd rather have someone correct me than allow me to keep spreading misinformation. :whistle:

Thanks Julez :)

Congratulations Steph!!! :D

You don't actually *need* to call NVC for anything, but if you want to find out the dates they received and sent out your file to the embassy to fill in on your timeline, I'd say you could call NVC soon, today or in a couple days. Since you got a letter through snail mail, I'm guessing your NOA2 is already at least a couple days old, and Vermont is pretty fast with sending to NVC. I got my NOA2 via email; I waited one week exactly, and within that time my file was sent to NVC and on to Montreal.

Wooooohooo! It's nice to see someone who has waited so damn long get approved.

THANKS! I will call just so I know. The NOA2 was dated 1/2/08 so I assume NVC will get it any day now. I will call today. WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Honestly, I couldn't believe it. I read the thing 3 times before it sunk in.

I wouldn't be surprised if it is already on its way to London :whistle:

I think you are talking about the form I-134, dont you take the wrong one...

I definitely meant the I-134. It was a typo on my part. :blush: I stink at typing!

Me too :lol:

Hard to say. The first time I asked my congressman to look into it was just after six months and I was told someone was working on it, if i havent' heard by january I could ask them to check for me again. I resubmitted my request the other day, but haven't heard anything.

They might help you out, but they don't make anybody do anything.

Steph you can call the DOS @ 202-663-1225 Option 1, then Option 0. They can tell you if your petition has been forwarded to London and they are much easier to get through to than NVC.
