No, I believe this case# is just for use when contacting the embassy or NVC about your case. The USCIS case# doesn't have any significant meaning anymore. I think...nobody yell at me if I'm wrong.

By the way for those trying to track there case throught DHL from NVC to your Embassy, the directions i printed off from the December 2009 CSC page work really well, and are much less confusing.

Go to: http://www.dhl-usa.com

Go to: track by reference enter the info as follows

EXP DD MMM YYYYA

-EXP is constant

-DD is the date before the day The NVC said they shipped the case

-MMM is the three letters representing the month the NVC shipped the case

-YYYY is the year the NVC shipped the case

-A is constant

I found this to be very helpful, like i said it was posted on the December 2009 csc page. I have yet to reach this point yet, but I tried just doing random searches and it worked great.

HERE IS WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT...HOPE IT HELPS

Y&E, on 20 March 2010 - 09:33 AM, said:

For everyone waiting to know if your case has shipped from NVC to Consulate these instructions work:

1. Go to: http://track.dhl-usa...?nav=TrackByRef

2. In Reference, enter the info as follows:

EXP DD MMM YYYYA

EXP is constant

DD is the date before the day the NVC said they shipped the case.

MMM is the three letters representing the month the NVC shipped the case

YYYY is the year the NVC shipped the case

A is constant

For example, if the NVC says they shipped the case on February 12 2009, this would be entered as "EXP 11 FEB 2009A"

3. Date range for shipment - From: Enter the date of the day NVC said they sent the case

4. Date range for shipment - To: Enter todays date

5. Keep the rest of the fields blank

7. Once you enter the info, press "Track"

8. After a while you will see a list of all of the packages that left the NVC today. You need to search for the specific consulate.

9. When you find the shipment the corresponds to your consulate, you will see the tracking number that you can record.

10. You can then track the shipment from the NVC to your specific Consulate

Remember the spaces in the reference because I tried without and it doesn't work. You might have to trawl through the pages to find your shipment but it's worth it for the peace of mind

Hi Everyone,

Congratulations to all of you who have received your NOA2! :thumbs:

We received our NOA1 on Jan. 25th and havnt been touched or heard anything since Jan. 28th. I have seen people on the same date and after us already being appproved. Is there anyone else in the same situation as us? Is it too early to be worrying yet?

I'd say it's a little early to be worried right now. VSC is not moving too quickly and right now they supposedly are working petitions around your timeframe. You could see some action any day so keep your fingers crossed...pray and get ready for the next phase. I'd start worrying as you approach the 5 month mark without any activity.

Can't believe how fast it moves once USCIS finishes with you. Called NVC today and they said they are shipping my case to Kingston today...Only took 24 hours for NVC to look it over...This is great.

Wish everyone who is waiting the best, but I hope it makes you feel better it moves much faster once your through USCIS. Good Luck

Hi there i checked out the DHL tracking for you & found a file that's been sent to Slovenia this is the tracking number 9283458041 was sent on EXP 19 APR 2010A

Good luck to you both..... :thumbs:

We first met online 2004, but things started to get serious in Dec 2007. Made my first visit to the USA in march 2008 for 2 weeks. Then returned again in Aug 2008 for 3 months.. Then i came back to the UK for 5 months to return back to the USA April 2009 for another 3months.
