Thanks so much Jenny!!

That is odd that you haven't received any reply yet. With that being said, I had emailed D.B. twice- the first time it took him a few days to reply, the second time I received a reply in 30 minutes...

I guess I'll wait about 2 weeks before I call the NVC :innocent:

We are going to see a lot of passing the buck now. No one with balls is willing to step in and say "Hey, USCIS screwed up, because of that and the hardships that we have put petitioners through, we will make sure that they are all processed immediately at NVC as well as the Embassy/Consulate."

We are minions to them..............
