About Texas transfers

Did everyone actually get the change of status on uscis website that 'your approved case has been shipped to the department of state and so on' when it was really sent out?

Or it might be sent out to NVC without this update on the uscis website?

As far as I can tell everyone from TSC has been getting that status update. Mine was not shipped until I received that update last Friday.

I noticed that folks are waiting on different visas so I was hopeful to hear from only fiancé visa folks... How long before you got your case number from the nvc???

Have you recieved your case # yet? What did your copy say, did it list a consulate? Did it say that it's been sent directly to the consulate or NVC?

you're going to get your case number soon. Patience is difficult but key in this process. You got your Noa2 fast and it takes Texas some time to ship it to NVC but once it is at NVC the process is going to be very fast!! :) Goooood luck and stay positive!

Ukraine is one of the fastest embassies that I have seen. No need to wait for anything from them, no need to send anything to them. Just pay at a bank and schedule the interview online. Almost every day is open for interviews. You can even do the medical the day before the interview as they give results that same day (unless you have kids, in which case it takes 2-3 days).

Most things in Ukraine can be gotten done extremely quickly as long as you pay the correct "fee" to the correct person. Looks like the embassy has also embraced it, though there is no extra "fee" needed for service there.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-HAW!

I've been doing so much math the last few weeks it's not funny. I've estimated approximate time from TSC to NVC as 2 weeks and 3 days. And I. Counted. Every. Day. And I counted everyone else's notices. And counted and counted.

I despaired yesterday after that mark, figuring mine would be part of the 3-5 week pile (if -egads- not "accidentally" lost), but TODAY at 5:01PM I got a text and e-mail with "Your blahbiddyblah has been sent to the Department of State"

YEEEEEEEEEEESSS Praise GOD.

It's OUT OF YOUR HANDS, SERVICE CENTERS. You can't touch this nooooo mo'!!!!!! I CAN SEE THE LIGHT!!
