@SunDrop : Have you been celebrating ? Get back to work please. I do not see you put me in the list of Feb fillers :crying:

@Lien_Joseph, hey she is entitled to celebrate a little. But I see she already added you to the list of February Filers so she seems to be on the ball while celebrating.

got a letter in the mail, was worried it was an REF, but nope to my surprise it was my approval letter!!! was approved on march 31st, did not get a single text message nor e-mail and my case status on the website still says initial investigation, guess there might be 1 guy up there who is anti technology since I'm the second one this happened to!

Hello All February 2010 CSC Filers. I know it is a little early, but I have seen on some timelines not in this thread, when NVC received an approved petition by the time NOA2 was received in the mail. There were many people approved in the past week. I would like to know when your petition arrives at NVC.

I have called NVC's automated line, gone through the options for dialing the answers and gotten the response of NO, they do not have my case yet. I have done this three times. I have not requested to speak to a live person as I do not want to wait and it has only been ONE week. Still, I wish the petition was there.

Please let me know. The NVC telephone number is: 1-603-334-0700.

Thanks.

[Wishing 1]

We are hoping to make a call for NVC early this week...are they closed on Easter Monday? (at least its Easter Monday in Canada...)

I do not think they are closed for Easter Monday. I have never known the post office to close on Monday after Easter either. I plan to call everyday twice a day until about 14 days. If they do not have it by then, I will call to talk to a live operator.

I know bainbridge is having problems with getting his file to NVC, unfortunately.

[Adam & May 4]

Happy Easter to all!

@ spencer12 - Congrats, awesome news!

@ Audy_Rob - The info I have is that K1s are not a part of their automated system. The first prompt is for Haiti related or not. Then I choose option 2 (which includes K1). I ended up calling the NVC for both events(received by them and sent to embassy) 2 times each. For them receiving my packet, the first person I spoke with would only tell me that they had it but not when it arrived but he did give the case number. When I called back the next day the second person told me what day it had arrived and to call back in 7 days. A week later, the first person I spoke with stated that the package had left for the embassy "this week" but when asked for a specific date he simply repeated "this week". When I called back that evening I was told it left on 3/29.

The DHL package arrived in Manila on 4/2 so I suspect it will be delivered to the USE Manila on Monday. I plan on calling Wednesday night (their Thursday morning) to try scheduling May's interview for June 18th. She has to obtain a Japanese police clearance which can take 4-6 weeks. We are hoping an October wedding so the earliest she can arrive is the end of July.

I have just started packing for my 3 weeks in the Philippines with May. Then in July she should be here!!

Happy Easter to all!

@ Audy_Rob - The info I have is that K1s are not a part of their automated system. The first prompt is for Haiti related or not. Then I choose option 2 (which includes K1).

@Adam - Hey Adam, thanks for the information. I am glad you told me this. I will try to speak to a LIVE person tomorrow.

Three weeks in the Phils with May. Sounds very good. I think you should enjoy that.

We have a November wedding planned, Audy has some committments at work she cannot leave until late October. So really the interview can be August or as late as September. I just want to keep everything moving.

[Audy_Rob 26]

@Adam and May - Thanks very much.

I called NVC at about 11:19 am West Coast time. Waited less than 5 minutes for an operator. She told me they have received my petition from CSC and it was going out to Bangkok today. Should be 4 or 5 days to get to Bangkok from what I have read on the Thai specific forum.

So Adam is right. If you want to call NVC, do not use the Automated system as I was doing, select the option for speaking to an operator.

Again, good luck to all of us February Filers.

[Adam & May 4]

Per the DHL website, the USE Manila received our package today.

[Adam & May 4]

Received my NVC letter today!

[Seven 24]

Congrats to all who received their NOA2 and the best of luck in their next steps!!!

And the ones who are waiting like us hang on thereeee we will have a happy NOA2 day soon!!!

February filers ruleees!!!

God bless
