Hello everybody! So happy with the great news I received today. I just opened my e-mail and I didn't know I have the approval notice since November 4. I still couldn't believe it!! I think there will be more approvals coming. So happy!!!!! And I am still relying on Visa journey for the next step. LOTO, you've been a great help too. Do you know another contact number of NVC other than Let's still continue to pray for more NOA2's this month. Good luck to all of us

Hey BB, Congratulations :dance: :dance: :dance: Great news :dance: :dance: :dance:

That's the only NVC contact#. You need to keep redialing until you get into. This line is so busy, sometimes I have waited 45 min. an all.

Were you with CSC when you approved?

Follow the NVC guides to understand the process, if you haven't done it.

I would just call them tomorrow..no sense in giving yourself an Ulcer. I think depending on your NOA1 date..realistically I think they're gonna finish off everyone's file before Christmas/New Years. Try to maintain that 5 month mark.

Then after that..NVC is gonna be jammed up...you gotta think of that as well. Flood of approvals from 3 service centers now..not just two.

So I think, I mean it makes sense..it all bottlenecks into NVC. Kinda like 3 lanes of highway merging onto a single lane exit ramp to the USA! Ya, that was corny..who cares. Report me for abuse. lol

Thanks Loto. My hubby and I are still on vacation but we wish to at least start the first step to NVC. I didn't even know about some cases being transferred to Texas but I were approved in CSC since i never had any noticed about that. They're will be more approvals coming-- I just have a feeling..
