I would guess lots of calls to NVC are silly and should not be made but people being what they are just clog down the system. Then those who have reasonable and legitimate issues have to wait because

Make sure you have copies of everything and clearly state on your Cover sheet that you're sending Originals and a copy as part of your package. NVC will or should forward all documents including your originals to the Embassy and Original should be returned to you at the time of your interview. Bring copies of Originals with you just in case they need them...

I am not calling because I am running low on Blood Pressure Medication... So I recorded several of my other calls and just listen to them when I have a need to know. "You case is within allowed time lines please wait 6-8 weeks for processing."

It would seem intuitively obvious to the most casual observer that if they ran their organization in a way that they reduce phone calls inquiring what the hell is going on they might actually have more time to do things. Then again their goals would have to be change from Job Security to customer service and expediency... There are so many FUBARs in this process that just a little care could fix if fix was on the agenda. :blink:
