Hi Everyone,

We recieved our NOA2 (approved) on Dec 30th. Our file should be at the NVC soon, if it isn't already. I did a search on packets 3 and 4 and saw a lot of useful information, but I think I was a little overwhelmed with all the provided information and how to use it :yes:

I have read on here before (I think) that you can schedule your interview as soon as you get your case number from NVC as opposed to waiting for it to be scheduled by the Embassy; is that accurate? Shirley already filed for her police report one month ago and should be receiving it soon. We will have to submit the paperwork required and she would have to take the medical, which is a simple process in Malaysia (from what I understand).

I guess what I am asking is this: Can we speed up this process if we are proactive? If so, what are the best ways to do so? Shirley is now pregnant with my child as of my last trip to Malaysia in November so I am axious to get her over here and place her on my health benefits and have my child born in the U.S.

Are we notified when our case is at the NVC or will we have to call to find out?

Also, I will be attending the interview :)

Any answers are appreciated. :clock:

I suppose you can, I mean you can download the files needed.

Click on your flag under your name, then click the link that says 'Malaysia Embassy Info." or something like that. When you are on that page, you should be able to see what docs are needed by the embassy and what you need to fill out. You will also find medical information on that page. You can download the docs you need, fill them out and have them ready for the Embassy.

I have also heard that you can actually send your stuff to the Embassy BEFORE you get packet 3... I, however, have no idea about this, or how it works.

NVC will notify you when they have entered your file into their system and have sent it to the Embassy. You can also call them, tell them your case number, and they will tell you whether they have it yet or not.
