If you have NOA2 hard copy why not just send that and your petition to NVC? A desperate move, but it just might work.

I am hoping you have copies of your petition. Send a copy of your petition, NOA1, and NOA 2 along with a letter to Angela Barrows explaining why you are re-sending your petition.

07-20-2010 NOA1

02-11-2011 NOA2

03-09-2011 Sent both packages to NVC

03-28-2011 Case complete

Hey guys I got this email!

On February 14, 2011, we shipped this approved or re-affirmed case to the Department of State for visa processing. For more information, please contact them directly.

CONGRATULATIONS to all those approved last night!

It's good to see Saylin's spreadsheet filling up with colors. Some of the very early July filers deserve an approval. The Sahlis, Mr Er, Brownbear, these cases need to be finished.

We're rooting for everyone on here to come through this week. Angela seems to follow through even if she doesn't always get back by email. She's a busy lady.

Wednesday is usually a good day. Lets' hope for the approvals to rain down tonight.

MANY thanks to everyone for your encouragement and support over the last few days especially. It's a battle none of us will ever forget.

here's to hope, and here's to the NVC for everyone! good.gif

Congratulations on your shipment confirmation.

I don't want to scare anybody, but the news is talking about the federal government shuting down operations on March 3rd if Democrats/Republicans cannot agree on a budget. This would mean all non-essential federal employees (myself included) would be told not to come to work, taking unpaid leave. I'm guessing this would include NVC and perhaps people working on our cases at the Consulates. I think most of the reporting is just sensationalism, but who knows, it happened before in 1995 and several times before that.

That wouldn't surprise me with the luck our little group has here.

Murphy's Law and all that.

Doubt it will happen though...
