Thanks. Just wanted to make sure before I updated the spreadsheet ;)

Saylin, do you think I should call NVC and ask for the case number? We were approved on February 10th but when I call the automated system it says there is no record of my case number yet. Did you just call and ask for it?

Entropy.. we were approved the same day... I called NVC today .. they said that they had my case, but no number case has been assigned... I am not sure if it true but all we can do is wait... I think you also got transferred back like me to CSC right?

Yes, besides calling the AVR, I would call an operator at least once a day to see if they have a case number assigned to you. I found out my case number through an operator and the AVR only updated two days later to reflect they assigned a case number.

The old music on the NVC line is not nearly as cool as the USCIS Tier 2 music.

Looks like they updated the Volume from Dec 2010. TSC's volume is 0 across the board.
