Thank you, I called yesterday and they said it should go out today or Monday!!! They said it leaves about 2 weeks after they get it and they received it on July 9, 2012 (the 23rd is two weeks, fingers crossed!) Korb khun krab.

Do you still have the e-mail address? I have our NVC case number I called yesterday and was told the NVC got our petition on July 9, 2012 and they usually send in on in about two weeks via DHL I believe. He said to call bacl Tuesday to confirm that it has been sent. I reckon I could then wait a week and e-mail the consulate. Thanks so much for your help! Korb khun krab!

Make sure you put the '2' in there. They rarely respond to the email posted on thier website.

Also the subject line needs to look like this:

IV Inquiry BNK2012xxxxxxxx

The BNK2012xxxxxxxx being the case number that is on the notice from NVC.

Ning, question: My Fiance went to get the Police Certificate a few weeks ago and was told she needed the NOA2 and a copy of mt passport, ok, no problem. So she has that and is going to go back on Monday the 23rd. However she just read a post on the USVISA4THAI website where the woman went there and was told she needed the Appointment letter from the Embassy to get the Police Certificate. Is this accurate or are they just trying to get some tea money? My fiance is going to try on Monday anyway because she will be in BKK anyway. Thanks.

In the cases I know about the copy of the NOA 2 was all they needed. However I saw a post recently that said they asked for a copy of the USCs passport photo page too.

One person contiues to say here on V J that she needs a appointment letter. I never heard of this but you never know. This could totaly depend on who the see at the police dept.

I would have her take the two items she has in and try that. The idea of " tea " money may be misunderstood and needs careful thought before any attempt at that is made.

Karee is right in this advise but this email is for the visa section only.

I think you were asking about the consulate section. If so check the consulate web site for the email address because I dont have it anymore. Send to the attention of the duty officer. Give them the NVC number if you have it or the USCIS if you dont.

We discussed the tea money issue as she was approached on it last time. My fiance is very smart and lived in BKK for a number of years, outskirts from where they would bus her to one of the technology estates in Ayutthaya. I will have to leave it to her discretion as we have had these conversations before about "tea money". Thanks again.

Also, I wouldn't go running around getting the police report just yet. I believe they are only good for a certain amount of time.

If it was me, I'd just sit back and relax. If you have spare time to waste, check out this link:

Actually it is what he wants. I suggested to him that he ask the duty officer there to assist him in locating his case and find out when it will arrive in BKK.

Ohh ok. I'm still trying to figure out what the big deal is. We all went through this. It's a stressful waiting game. Nothing can be done really. Go out and have some beers.

Yes this is best left to her. One person recently suggested waving around a handful of money. That of course is a very bad idea and may lead to a different relationship with the police than they had in mind.
