"Based upon the information received, the NVC is unable to determine the date of birth for the principal applicant. Please submit a copy of a valid passport so we may update your file."

So my wife got that reply from NVC when she asked where to send the DS-230. How did we get to this point if they didn't receive a copy of her passport? They accepted my packet in August and I paid several fees already. I would not have known that they were missing anything if my wife didn't email them to confirm where to send the packet to. This frustrates me and makes me feel embarrassed to be an American.

I understand your feelings, however remember that it is an assembly line, and even at chrysler a nut or bolt is dropped once in awhile, not making excuses just saying sometimes we forget that this big machine we have poured our lives into is still at the end of the day run by a bunch of people running on a hampster wheel.... God bless
