Grats on getting your case number! kicking.gif

I suggest calling them up asap. They'll tell you what you need to do to change embassies (if anything). Yes, this will result in a new case number (each case number has the three-letter country code at the beginning for where you're interviewing). Of course this will cause delays as they need to change your information. How long the delay will be, no one can predict. Could be a couple of days, could be longer. But if they assigned a wrong embassy, then it needs to get fixed.

The operator told me to send the proof of my residency. i will email them all now. Should i postpone the DS-3032 email? as it contains the case number and should i ask my wife not to pay the AOS fee as it will have barcode with wrong case number?

Can someone explain WHY the "interviews are only scheduled the second week of the month" myth is so popular with NVC operators, even though we see people get scheduled all month long? I'm confused why I keep getting told this if it's obv.iously not true??

Hi Saylin, yeah I followed the guides, except one thing, I used the 3032 from NVC (with GUZ# and barcode, and name printed on it), except the stock 3032. Because during these 2 weeks I have paid AOS and OPTIN so GUZ# is now GZO#, I am not sure if this is causing problems.

this was my last week's post here, where Darnell answered by today I should get the 3032 accepted.

If you followed the guide, then just keep waiting.

Yeah, I suggest postponing the DS-3032 and paying the AOS bill until your new case number is assigned.

I have no idea where this myth has come from with the operators. You can always ask the operators :P

Why?

there is a chance my spouse will have her Malaysian visa expired after three months (and malaysian pcc takes like 2 months) with no chance of renewal (as she is not dependent anymore).

I hope for the best, but in case she cannot stay there for medical and interview, embassy needs to be changed to my home country Bangladesh.

You can try expediting and see if that works.

I just called NVC and the operator told me the 3032 was never received? :blink:

I didn't explain to her it was attached in the OPTIN email and my OPTIN has worked so the email is definitely received. anyway I feel like #######. She said I can email it again. I am not sure sending another one would screw up the 1st one or not, just in case the 1st one was still "in processing".
