HI Guys :wow: :wow: :wow:

I was approved Feb 11 and few hours ago i received an email from USCIS stating " On feb 16, 2011, we shipped this approved or re-affirmed case to the Dept of State for visa........

My question is for those who received this email before me and got their NVC number, how many days before u had your NVC number from the time of this email?

Also i think XELANCE also got this today (feb 16), when do you expect to call NVC and have your NVC number?

Thanks guys... :wow: :wow: :wow:

I-797C, Notice of Action (NOA2) is an actual letter received by the petitioner in the mail. It is printed on the same security paper as the I-797C, Notice of Action (NOA1). In the Notice Type block it will say "Approval Notice". I received mine in the mail from TSC on 11/23, but, as we all know, didn't mean much until I received the email from USCIS in February stating that my case had been forwarded to NVC.

I received a approval letter yesterday. It says " It has been approved and have sent to NVC". Did they really send my application to NVC? I am not sure. Does anyone of your letter say the same thing and been forwarded to NVC?

Saylin, your signature mentions forms DS 260 and DS 261 what are those? I thought the only forms we needed in the NVC stage were 230 and 3032. Is it only for electronic processing? thanks!

The DS-261 and DS-260 are online forms that are required for Canada. The DS-261 is the Choice of Agent form (DS-3032) and the DS-260 is the IV form (DS-230).

Here's a link to when I attached a copy of my NOA2. Not sure if it's the same for those in TSC though.

Yes, mine said the case had been sent to the NVC.......that was in November........If you don't receive a case number within a FEW DAYS, you can be sure that your approved petition was in fact NOT sent to the NVC. I hope USCIS has finally gotten a handle on the "unforeseen circumstances" they were experiencing, and you will receive your case number shortly.

I'm a little confused. Do I wait for them to email me information or should I email or mail them my DS 3032? (I'm still waiting for it in the mail by Luc :ranting: ) but just wondering? Thanks.
