this doesn't make sense... really I think I'm going to lose it if they've lied to me again. anyone know why there are no packages going through DHL on October 1? If anyone knows anything about this, please help. This is a nightmare roller coaster from hell. It's like they enjoy torturing you. First they tell you your petition is going, then they say it's in AP, then they say they can't tell you anything, then they tell you again, it's going, now there is no shipment. #######???!!!!

I used the SEPT 30 code and is showed 1 package going to Jamaica on Oct. 1st.

Try that :yes: and all FOUR codes "correspondence" as well as the date with "A" "B" or "C"

yes, I tried that. There is no package to Italy. This is why I'm upset. It seems every time someone gets a verbal clearance from NVC they see their package going to their Embassy. I see nothing. I think they just told me I was cleared so I would stop calling them. If I sound paranoid and frustrated, well, I have good reason. My case does not appear to progress like others. I mean, those ahead of me, what they tell me to expect doesn't happen with me. Sorry if I'm bringing down the happy spirit of this thread. I'll try to just stop posting messages. Good luck to all.

Interview ... WAIVED? Never heard of this, but they didn't even interview him, just told him pick up his visa the next day.

Current Status: Interview ... waived ... I guess :) They just took his fingerprints and documents and told him everything was in order and he should pick up his visa tomorrow! WOW

I can't believe it's only been 7 months since we filed ... seems like an eternity!

I called NVC just now and they said my package was shipped yesterday with DHL. They would not tell me a tracking number. The reference code we've been using doesn't seem to work now. If anyone knows the new reference code, please tell me. I've tried EXP 01 OCT 2009A (also with B, C and D) It says there are no shipments with those reference numbers.

Then we know something for fact that are MORE reference keywords then those that we knew already which are "CORRESPONDENCE" , "EXP 30 SEP 2009A", "EXP 30 SEP 2009B" and "EXP 30 SEP 2009C".

The challenge will be to find them one way or another.

Last month when they sent me that letter telling me my case would be forwarded within a week, I called DHL on the phone and spoke with a very sweet woman who looked at all packages for a week going from Portsmouth NH to Naples Italy. I don't know if anyone else can try that if they have time. I'm at work and I don't want to call with all my officemates listening, but I'm jsut saying it's possible DHL will help you IF you get the right person and IF you are very polite and nice with them. I never divulged to DHL that reference code, though, because I didn't want them to change it. I just asked a date range, a shipping point and a destination. Then they gave me details on 3 shipments that week to Naples Embassy from Portsmouth NH, and even told me the tracking codes and who signed for them at the Embassy.

this doesn't make sense... really I think I'm going to lose it if they've lied to me again. anyone know why there are no packages going through DHL on October 1? If anyone knows anything about this, please help. This is a nightmare roller coaster from hell. It's like they enjoy torturing you. First they tell you your petition is going, then they say it's in AP, then they say they can't tell you anything, then they tell you again, it's going, now there is no shipment. #######???!!!!

NVC DOES somewhat they say, they do send it to embassy the day its out of AP but NOT DHL. They email it to embassy, then a few days later or a week, they send the hardcopy out DHL to the embassy. Paris embassy confirmed this to me, and the Department of State!!!

Thank you Paris Heart. I'll try to keep that hope then. But Mazy saw hers in DHL within one day, and I think some others here said the same thing. I don't know why this whole process has to be so convoluted and shrouded in mystery. If we were suspicious characters, then ok. I'm trying to keep hoping. I'm sure some day our petition will be approved and finished, because we are good, honest people, but this process is really like torture. Each time I think we are closer, it seems we move back to knowing nothing and just languishing in this maze of bureaucracy. Thank you and God bless you. Ciao.

Believe me, I understand and know how you feel. I too was in AP for a K3 at NVC 37days, but in that time I completed NVC with our CR1 visa, both cases completed the same day at NVC, UGH!.

I saw a 4 pound DHL packet went to Paris the other day, a bit too light for our CR1 file, it alone weighted about 15 pounds, LOL. I was told to call NVC today to see if sent out, as of Wednesday it was not, was being prepared to be sent to Paris.

Hang tight my Dear, soon we will laugh our butts off over this nightmare as we sit with our loved one.

Truly happy!!!

New life, new adventures, and a new attitude.

Lets check the DHL today ,I will check all 4 ways I know of, they usually pick up round 3:30 pm eastern time. I will post of what I see to Italy. Hang on Hon, we will see it soon. But remember, NVC emails the petition first, then DHL it out!!!

Hugs,

Beth

Truly happy!!!

Thanks Beth please let me know ... I can't find ANY shipments in DHL for yesterday. That's unusual, and it makes me think the reference codes we've been using are not working any more. Hugs :)

ParisHeart, you are a beautiful soul! (F)

I tried to find a package to Italy just now and I don't see it either ladonna :(

Have faith, it will be okay :yes:

It wasn't today, it was yesterday. did you see ANY packages for today or yesterday? I keep repeating myself, but it seems I'm not making sense... the codes for DHL don't work anymore, unless someone is seeing SOMETHING for yesterday. :(

And I have to wonder why NVC won't tell the individual tracking number. That's only the number for one shipment, it shouldn't be a secret.

Yes I am looking at many shipments from yesterday, I just don't see one to Italy...

I am using the code EXP 30 SEP 2009 A,B & C

The only code that did not work for me was "correspondence" and it said there were too many to list.

When I narrowed it down to just yesterday's date, it worked, but I still did not see one going to Italy...

Wish I could be more help....

What city is your fiance's Embassy in?

yes, I see Oct 1 shipments using the EXP 30 SEP 2009A, but when I put in EXP 02 OCT 2009A there is nothing. lol i feel I'm saying the same thing over and over, but no one hears me ... twilight zone. thank you anyway. Good luck to all. I'm giving up on this thread. If that petition is ever approved, then it is. If it isnt', then God must have a different plan for me. I'm tired of this. I wish you all Godspeed and happiness. Addio tutti. (L)

I think the DHL site is having some technical difficulties

I was able once to put in the wildcard "EXP%" w a date range and came up with several pages of shipments

now it is not working - but maybe is a way to go - i am not sure if was a fluke but will try again after few hours in case DHL site is down somewhat
