Sorry to hear that. Next time ask to speak to a supervisor or next level up. Or you can call back on Feb. 3 and put in the service request.

My Senator's office contact USCIS and told me that my case was assigned to an Adjudicator. I am not sure if the call made a difference and if I wasn't going to get the NOA2 without it, but I am curious to know if anyone else who got approved in late January had also contacted their Senator.

Well today I have recieved in the mail the hard copy of my NOA2 and it says that the National Visa Center (NVC) wll build me a case number and the processing should be complete in 2 to 4 weeks after receiving the papers from USCIS.

After this is done they will be sending the petition to the Embassy in Moscow where she will be interviewed. I will receive a letter from them when they have sent notice to the Embassy in Moscow.

The USCIS has completed all action; further inquiries should be directed tothe NVC.

Thanks hope this helps someone and encourages others.

NOA1 date 8-30-2010

They're not going to do anything except read you a script until you're 30 days past your projected deadline, so I'd suggest just waiting until the 6 month mark and then calling USCIS daily.

Seems like they're moving right along, but it's like the Ice Armageddon around these parts this week, so that might slow things down a little bit.

GOOD LUCK! I got my NOA2 yesterday, about 25 days later than projected.

Thanks, but really I just asked for the number/who to call, and I already understand all that you said! I just want the number in case my fiancée does demand it. I'm the one kind of organizing, you know?

The only place I know to call is 1-800-375-5283, which is the national service center. I can't say they're a lot of help, but I don't know of any other place.

Oh, and even at 6 months post-NOA1, they still just read a script and the put in a service request. After that, the don't want you calling back =P
