Rec'd our RFE hardcopy in yesterday's mail and as I suspected, it was ONLY FOR THE TRANSLATED docs that I failed to provide in our initial packet. That's IT!!! YAY! I had them on the table ready and waiting and mailed them out via USPS overnight the same day! CSC should receive the info today by 3pm. This is moving along faster than we had hoped and I am so grateful to this site for all of the incredibly helpful info! Here's to ONE-DAY-CLOSER! dancin5hr.gif

Awaiting Oath Ceremony for Citizenship! Last step!

Hi All,

For those CSC filers who received NOA2s, how many have received notification that their packets were shipped to NVC? And how soon after your NOA2 did you receive this?

Just curious.

Thank you and good luck!

Yes. We too are interested in this info.

I keep reading few people reporting that they did get a notification/case status update of file shipped to NVC within few days after approval whereas some didn't receive any such update.

It has been 1 week since we got NOA2 hard copy. I am not calling NVC fearing to hear the same damn "8 weeks" bla bla...

Can't wait to hear our NVC/consulate transfer news..

Good Luck, everyone

I called the Department of State and did not have to wait and spoke with a very nice woman. They do not have our case in the system yet.

I know I was jumping the gun on that one but just wanted to see how calling would be. I did not call NVC. I called DOS as they can look up the case number all the same.

:D

They have a brand new number: 202-485-7600.

Listen to the entire message and then push 1. Then they will list off a bunch of options and then you will press 0 to talk to a customer service rep.

Just let them know that you were hoping they could help you find your case number on a recent K1 petition. I gave the woman my receipt number. They may not have it but the woman I spoke with was very pleasant.

Good Luck!
