I got my NOA2 in mid June stating that my approved petition had been forwarded to the NVC. Within about 8 days I got a letter from the NVC saying that "within 1 week" it would be forwarded to the Consulate in London. This was June 30th. STILL have not received any kind of notification stating whether it was actually sent, or if it WAS sent, if it had been received in London. Unsure what the notification process is on MY side once the petition has left the NVC for London Consulate.

Anyone know what kind of notice (if any) is given once the packet leaves the NVC??

(I think the next notification will be my fiance calling me in a few weeks telling me he got his packet!!)

Considering the speedy processing thus far (which came as a huge suprise) I'm trying not to let this minor lag time stress me out!

Hang in there and hopefully you will have some good news in the coming days!

Call the DOS to see if/when it was sent to London.

202-663-1225 (Press 1 for the main menu, then 0 for an operator; if that doesn't work, press 1, 4, 2, 3, 2, 0)

Give them your LND case number and they can tell you if/when it's been moved.

Found out my case was sent to the embassy yesterday. I'm sorry it's taking yours so long, JVF. Hopefully they can get it there soon. At least they are shuffling them out very quickly from the NVC as well, so hopefully you'll gain some time back there.

Unfortunately for K1's there is no way to track it once it leaves the USCIS unless you call them. Once you have the case number, call them in about 2 to 3 days to see if it's been sent to the Embassy/Consulate. Once that's happened, you'll have to check with either the embassy/consulate or DOS to see if/when it's been received. As I said earlier, mine only took 2 days to send on to the Embassy, so hopefully yours will fly out the door very quickly too!

Good luck! :thumbs:

Actually there is, you just need to know when it was shipped by NVC.

1. go to http://www.dhl.com/en/express/tracking/shippers_reference.html

2. In Shipper´s Reference type "EXP <date when NV shipped> JUL 2010A" (without ")

3. Date range for shipment - From <date> Date range for shipment - To <date>

4. Shipment Destination <your country>

The DHL info didn't work. Nothing was found.

I even tried it with dates before, and without a desitnation country and nothing happened. I figured I'd get a long list without the country, but NOTHING.

Sorry.

Dodi, I've been playing with the DHL tracking thing for the past few days, and it's nice. It seems that, for the London packages, they get shipped out in the evening, travel for a day, then arrive at the embassy about lunch time the day after that. Mine was sent out on Monday and arrived in London yesterday, so I plan on calling the DOS tomorrow to see if they've sent out P3 yet. Yours will likely arrive tomorrow!
