AUTMATED INFO AFTER DS-230

[ayacoop 0]

HELLO. VJ members!!

I sent DS-230 and other documents to NVC on April 28 and I think NVC recieved them in 2 or 3 days.

But NVC automated message hasn't been changed yet.

It still says "A packet of information and documents was generated on Apr 19 and will be mailed within next few weeks"

I know it doesn't work perfectly, but it had worked well and right away for me before.

I wonder when will it be changed to "The NVC has received the checklist letter response on ..."

and also if NVC has recieved our package for sure.

Is anyone experenced the same situation? pls give me advice

My husband sent the DS-230 etc. out on April 27th, and it was delivered on April 28th. The AVR message changed for me on April 30th to "The NVC has received the checklist letter response..."

Provided that NVC received your package, I assume the AVR should probably change for you in the next few days. In the meantime, you can try to call NVC and speak to an operator. Sometimes they are able to tell you that they've received something from you, but they haven't entered it into their system yet. Other times they tell you nothing! At least, that's been my experience.

On another note, did you not track your shipment?

Thanks for the info.

its changed right away for you. That's good!!

My husband called NVC and talked to the operater once.

She told him to wait 2 to 3 weeks, otherwise can't answer anything.

I asked him to call them again tonight.

You are most welcome!

Yeah, they say that 2-4 week thing sometimes... actually, they say it a lot. I think it's really just the luck of the draw about who you talk to when you call. Back when I was waiting for the NVC to receive the file from USCIS, my husband and I were getting different answers every day. Half of the people said they have no way to know whether or not our stuff was there (and to wait 2-4 weeks), the other half said they knew it was there, but hadn't been entered in their system yet (and to wait 2-4 weeks).

If your tracking says that the package has been delivered, then you should be fine. At least you know it's not lost in the mail!
