NVC letter, but no NOA2

[Bill & Bea 0]

I received a letter today from the NVC which states:

"The State Department's National Visa Center has recently received an approved I-129F petition filed on behalf of your fiance. This letter is to let you know that within a week the petition will be forwarded to the appropriate visa-issuing post where your visa interview will take place."

It gives me the MNLXXXXX case number.

I have NOT received an NOA2 letter from VSC.

Do I need it for the interview?

Medical?

Is THIS letter enough to get us through at this time?

Thank you for any clarification you can give.

You will not need it for interview, HOWEVER you WILL need it when adjusting status.

Call VSC to see why you have not received NOA2. Could be that they never sent it in that case they will send it to you. If their system shows that they have already sent it you wont be able to send them again unless you pay $400. I would not worry about not getting NOA2 since you have NVC letter. I am don't if it is must to include NOA2 for AOS.

I think they might have issues with the postal service ... got no clue but all of the letters from the USCIS we got had odd dates!

our case was expedited on May 8th we got the letter on May 18th = 10 days

Date of NOA2 May 13th we got he letter on May 19th = 6 days

We got our Letter from NVC date 18th got it today on the 20th = 2 days

Hopefully tomorrow we will have a million dollars in the mail

so maybe you will get tthe Noa2 tomorrow or on Friday.

Postal Service was much faster in old colonial days

You might wait a couple of days.

My file from USCIS went quickly through NVC after approval. I ended up receiving the NOA2 letter only 1-2 days before the NVC letter.

One could have just taken a faster route in the mail.

Unless typhoons are a compelling interest of USCIS, I doubt it
