STUCK @ NVC for AP

[crazymazy 0]

Well I called and was told same - so asked to speak to supervisor - so she put me on hold surprisingly - then after about 10 mins - came back and said she had asked her supervisor and her supervisor said for me to call back like on friday ( sounds like the same they told Stephen and Elisha - but when I asked for a name - she said - no just call back in - and the supervisor will put in query and will update when she gets a reply so anyone who I talk to on Friday should be able to tell me what she ( the supervisor ) finds out

[Stephen + Elisha 92]

I just got off the phone with the supervisor at NVC (Leila) with whom I spoke last Thursday. She told me at that time that she would put in a request to find out the status of our case. She said today that they had responded to her request: they have completed their reviews and are preparing to send it out to Seoul, and that it'll definitely be leaving NVC this week.

Mind you, I'm not getting excited yet... when I find out for sure that it's been shipped, I'll breathe a little easier... and I'll wait 'til we hear from the consulate to start dancing... but I'm cautiously optimistic. This may, finally, be progress.

The operator at NVC just said our file was sent to Seoul today! I can't see the DHL tracking info yet, but I'll keep checking.

Congrats! Just watch the DHL tracking, Im doing the same thing waiting to see packet to Paris.

You can also call the State Department (202-663-1225) to see whether the file's been received and logged into the system at the embassy yet.

BTW - Did you get any notification at all email or phone call? I know you checked by calling but I'm wondering if they also call or e-mail if they have the information on file.

I got none of the above, only verbal confirmation of out of AP, and see no packet to Paris yet, they lie I think, LOL

[Stephen + Elisha 92]

I guess I'll never know for sure whether it made a difference, but...

• I faxed my letter to the Assistant Secretary of State for Consular Affairs on Friday afternoon;
• Was told Monday afternoon that the AP reviews of our case were complete; and
• Was told today that NVC had sent out the file to Seoul.

Things that make you go hmm....

BTW - Did you get any notification at all email or phone call? I know you checked by calling but I'm wondering if they also call or e-mail if they have the information on file.

No, they didn't contact me.

I'm out too. Called today at noon while on my lunch break, I could barely swallow when she told me, "The petition has been sent today to Manila." I asked her if it gone from NVC or is it still there? She just repeats in a gruff voice the same thing. I thanked her and hung up. I haven't changed my time line because Martina reads our VJ homepage and I want to break the good news to her.

I work in an Ombudsmans office for the State Department in Health Services. I can truthfullly say that when we get a congressional inquiry (State Reps) we move it. I did fax my Washington Representative and called his office, two days later I'm out of NVC. Can't say if that was the cause for sure. Come to think of it at my office constituents don't know if the congressman was helpful or not.

I checked my email and still NVC has not emailed me. I would recommend to keep calling NVC since the email notification lagged (at least for me)

Crazyman,mavrick64,dhc,chrismel, and sweetgurl you are all in my prayers. I want you all to feel the joy i felt when i heard the news that Martina and myself closed the book on NVC. Thanks Allie for your encouragement for me to be patient.

Well here is hoping - I did get call yesterday finally from my congressman rep = I 1st thing was to apologize and explain the stress and she appreciated the this

then we had nice long talk about where I am in this process and what has been done. I faxed her back the information and she was going to call today and do inquiry. So here is also hoping.

Congrats Oscar !!

thanks for wishes

We've been out of AP since Sept. 18th and saw no packets via DHL to Paris, yet again last night, NVC said they sent it to embassy on Friday? Why do they tell us this when it has not happened??
