Background:

- I DCF filed for my foreign spouse in Beijing on November 21, 2012

- Received NOA2 via e-mail December 31, 2012 with approval date of December 21, 2012 written on the letter dated December 27, 2012

- Still have had no contact from the Guangzhou consulate...

Should I call? E-mail? Wait?

I am unsure of this timeline as it's DCF and we're interviewing here (both as foreigners, not Chinese, if that makes a difference)

How and when is the best way to contact them? I know CNY is coming too and the process will slow a bit...

Thanks a lot!!

Just updating:

I e-mailed the consulate yesterday (Jan 23) after I posted this message and they responded within hours of my request and stated that my husbands file was received and IV Info packet(3) was on its way via EMS. Well today (Jan 24) We got our packet!!

Lesson Learned: Waiting another day wold have been OK, but the e-mail response came with our case number...which is helpful if your packet doesn't arrive.
