Yes but do you notice that those who have gotten their case numbers today (Congrats to all btw) , have all been from VSC. I'm with CSC and they are being snails.

Hey I noticed we both received our noa2

Around the same time we are September 12th and we are also at csc hopefully they will receive our petitions quick!!!!!

Ours is Sept. 13 very close to yours too.we already tried calling last week to DOS and got a info about the 6 to 8 weeks waiting period.i tried emailing nvc and got the reply that they dont have our petition yet. And instruct us to email them our scanned NOA2 so that they will be the one to check it out to USCIS.i notice that nvc is now processing NOA2 approval from Aug 16 to 27.so guys whoever got their case number beyond this date please let us know.so that we will know what date range CSC now sending our approvals to NVC..

Well, we're held up as well. Amy can't get through to the NVC (surprise surprise, nothing but busy tones) and the DOS are saying that they still don't have a case number for us yet.

NVC is everyone's worse nightmare lol. You need a whole day with nothing to do but sit on the phone before you can get through to them. If dos says there's no number I would save myself time trying to call NVC. When I got my case number I got it from dos who has access to NVC computer. Cos that's what she told me when she told me to wait for her to access NVC system. Dos is definitely a quicker solution. Weather they can give the id number there too I couldn't say since I got mine much later after my file already hit London.

Our NOA2 was August 28th. Our immigration lawyer said with the government shut down and all, things could be delayed more. I'd love to know what's holding all us CSC approvals up. I wonder how many approvals they must have before they ship everything to the NVC. I am hoping to get a case number soon!!!

The problem is DOS can't get the Invoice Number, so you still have to either email or ring NVC for that.

thank you and yes we can choose which interview date we will have, it depends on the slots available per day as long as we finish the medicals at least a week before the set interview date and medicals don't need to be scheduled too, we just go there with all the requirements needed and registrations, we can even finish everything in a day and be given the results like what happened to me, we just have to be there as early as 4am to do that. Noticed that you're from the Philippines too, hope this helps. Edited by cathyvrph

When I call DOS from Australia. I call within the last 30mins of closing time and pretty much get straight thru or a wait of 2mins or less. My fiance called NVC and he said the same. Hard to get NVC, but might be easier again before closing time.. (DOS/NVC on East coast time)

DOS closing time is 12 hrs exact from now, except on Wed.

You are so right!!!!!!! we tried to call the DOS today at 8:29 am then less than a minute Im already talking to Cookie, the one who said that I should try to call next week since my file is not yet in the system. I will call them on monday. Thanks a lot!

To those who are tying to call DOS, try to call them around 8:25 am.
