I spoke to a NVC operator today. Looks like he was a novice and seemed pretty nervous.

He said they still reviewing my case. I asked him I cannot log into the payment site so doesn't that mean my case was completed? He said " You cannot log in because you already made the payments" I realiazed after that statement that there was no chance of getting any meaningful information from him so I just said thankyou and hangup. Didn't want to ruin my day talking to someone who had no clue. Today's call was a joke.

My AVR still has not been updated. Still says missing documents. I am gonna give it a day before all the systems get synced up. Will try to call the US consulate later today to see if they are still accepting interviews for April.

vivekjay - I can say that my AVR message and the operator gave me the same answer right to the very end. AVR: missing document, operator: waiting for ds-230. The very next morning my case was completed! I know exactly how you feel, but i think you should have a case complete tonight or tomorrow morning!!

Actually http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3238.html is just as good. The only bad thing is you can't see the big picture of how busy the interview is that day. For me i can actually sort in excel and see how many cases the embassy is interviewing that day.

Sorry I didn't get to join the March 2010 NVC for more than 2 or 3 days. Today I called the NVC, and slept on the phone for a 20 minute wait. The kind lady confirmed our Dates of birth and email addresses. I asked "is my case undergoing additional processing"? She replied, it looks like we just sent it over to the embassy already.

Nothing like USCIS. Good luck to those also with K1s at NVC. You should plan to call on phone, I never received one email from the NVC ( even though they have both of ours )

Actually http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwh3238.html is just as good. The only bad thing is you can't see the big picture of how busy the interview is that day. For me i can actually sort in excel and see how many cases the embassy is interviewing that day.

yeah i saw that, but i was hoping for a whole listing like what you had. I guess I will just have to wait for our case number to be loaded down there for an interview

List of VJers waiting for a SIF/CC. Updated by the date on which NVC received their last package. Please use the most current list, arranged chronologically.

(03/02/2010) -- Sachinky, mrs.Wife, AUS2USA*, atsleumas*

(03/03/2010) -- Yohino, Myra

(03/04/2010) -- ScottandMhay, gwdenton

(03/05/2010) -- Amit-N-Melody

(03/10/2010) -- M&ME

(03/11/2010) -- PKG2010, Sassythea

(03/12/2010) -- Doctor M

(03/15/2010) -- Dawn654

(03/16/2010) -- Estrella, Bobo, TatyanaR (Expected date of delivery)

London, I believe is 2-3 months backlogged.

Canada is similar as well.

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh. 2-3 months!???

Well, I just talked to Sarah at the NVC. She said our expedite request was APPROVED and to call back within 48 hours to see if it was sent out. So, I am guessing the NVC doesnt process the case anymore?? I guess i will wait at least a day and call back. I was just happy to hear that they approved the expedite request. So, we might get an April interview...I will know more in a couple of days though

Nice! Hopefully you get more good news tomorrow!
