I can almost feel it. I really wish the automated system would tell me something.

Well they received my DS-230 package this last Tuesday. I called today and today they finally did something with it, as in opened it. Now we wait while it's "under review" She says 2 - 4 weeks for completion ughh I hope she is just saying that and it comes much quicker! But more than ever, I really hope there is still December interview dates left for my husband.

Hey, that is the same thing they told me today too. We must have spoke to the same robo 2-4 week person. :rofl:

Let's cross our fingers and pray. I have been hearing and looking at everyone's time lines - it maybe one week (7 days) Let us PRAY!

Our case number never pulled up anything in the IVR. Not a single time. I asked a few of their reps about it and they just said "oh thats wierd." I found that everytime I called after 11:30PM I always spoke to someone almost immediately.

I don't know about you guys but I really enjoyed the NVC process (in comparison with USCIS).

Hi rmusic!

We are on the exact same boat! The DS-230 and AOS package have been received by a certain Pearse on 10/27 and my husband just called today, 10/31 and informed that they have already received the package after calling for several days already. The problem is my husband sent one package for both the AOS and DS-230 but he placed them in 2 separate folders (according to him--> to save money) but i specifically told him to send them separately. But anyway, I am really hoping not to have any RFE's because of what he did (i know he did everything right just that one mistake by sending them together in one mail)...pls i need some words of encouragement. It's weekend again and I have to wait like 3 days before we have another word from NVC. Is it okay if you let me know in case your case is closed already so I can have a comparison. hehhehe. Thanks!
