Hey everybody, for those who already did this...is it easy to talk to a supervisor at NVC?

Is there any magic words you have to say so they transfer you easily? ;)

After my case is complete my husband is gonna call and talk to a supervisor about our K3 interview, and the possibility of using it for our CR1, but the operator already told him it's impossible to do...but we are still trying, who knows right? But like the guides say, we should talk to a supervisor, any advice hot to get a hold of them?

Thanks! ^_^

I wrote to the embassy, they got back to me quick (email). If they have the CR1, your K3 interview is a CR1.

Mike and Yan, that's what I am hoping for actually so that's good news. Our CR1 should be there by the time my husband goes for his K3 interview :innocent: Let's hope...WOW why the heck u have to wait so long for ur K3 interview?? Why does it take China such a long time?? And what's with this custom clearance that seems to last 4ever?

Thanks for responding Will and especially for taking the time to look up our embassy :) ...do u mind posting the link for those forms. I will take a look at it tough I doubt we can use them...But what the heck :P
