In fact we have better idea than them, as we are sharing the progress of each other and are able to make some calculated guesses.

Yes, I am increasingly grateful for this forum and its participants as each day passes.

was approved july 31st....really hope i dont have to be waiting as long as you all have appeared to be!! :( can't you send your information in if you have already done it---forms, tax returns, etc etc? or do you have to receive a packet from the visa center prior to sending the visa center all the forms and such? if you can get the OF-169 and OF-230 online i dont see why you have to wait for a packet of information......:S

You have to pay the fee's before you can send off your paper work.

After you pay your fees you are sent a unique barcode for your case. You attach said barcode to your paper work and then send it to NVC.

I'm a July-approved person, but I feel for you June folks.

Just for fun, I called three times today to see what my status supposedly is:

This morning, I spoke with a young man who told my receipt date is August 1, and he did not try to give me a BS time frame. He did try to say this is their "busy season."

This afternoon, I spoke with a curt woman who would not give me a receipt date but told me it would take 2-4 weeks to process. "2-4 weeks from when?" I asked. She could not say. Least helpful interaction with an operator yet.

Later this afternoon, I spoke with a woman who said again my receipt date is August 1 but told me to wait 2 weeks.

My point in this futile exercise? These operators don't have any more clue as to what is occurring than we do.

In the dark, out of the loop, our lives wait to be processed.

My case was received on AUG 1st also. Let's hope we get the case # assigned soon...

Called today and got the standard 2-4 weeks answer :bonk:

He is highly frustated and the reasons are valid and hence that message - one needs to vent out ones frustation to feel a little free. He will overcome his frustation soon - it looks like NVC is trying to tighten their belt and hopefully he will get his Case number/ IIN/ AOS fee... soon.
