Nevermind apparently you can't call Vancouver :blink:

I sent them another email... hopefully I get some kind of a response today.

I would really like to know where my petition is.

Not sure why you think that you can't call Vancouver, I have called several times. I find you get much better results by calling than by emailing(they never respond to mine!). The phone number is (604)685-4311 x235 and you can call between 2-4pm Vancouver time. Hope that helps :)

NVC keep telling my case was sent on Nov 3, but Vancouver keep telling they haven't received it. I am so

frustrated, where is my case? :crying:

Would you please let me know when you receive your case. Thanks. Or you can sent me email.

Did you call NVC to find out when your case was sent out ? What did they tell you?

I'm still waiting on Packet 3. Apparently NVC sent to Van. sometime between like.. the 9th and 14th?

I don't want to bother them to find out :P

I did shoot off an email to Vancouver though to see if they had recieved it yet. Haven't heard anything so far.

I'm hoping to land an interview before the end of the year, but I don't know how realistic that is.

I'd recommend calling and emailing - it seemed to do the trick for me when I knew that NVC had sent through my petition. In a twisted way I think they may show you some more love if you harass them!

I FULLY Agree... persistance is key :) You're more likely to get results...

By the way, your both case numbers are starting VAC or one of them is MTL. VAC is Vancouver and MTL is Montreal

once NVC told me they sent it, I didn't call or email anyone. Eventually, I got a packet 3. It took a little over 2 weeks. I am betting you will get something next week. If you are really worried, email the consulate, but I don't think 2 weeks is cause for alarm, personally.

Have you received your packet? I haven't received mine either. It's already 9 days. :(

  • 2 weeks later...
