Folks, we got an email from the USCIS, That our case was shipped to the NVC on 07th of January, 2014, while we got our NOA2 on December, 13th, 2013.

How long would it take for the NVC to respond back to us?!

We got our NOA 2 on Dec, 13, 2013, saying our case is approved and is transferred to NVC. We got the same Letter by post on the 19th of December saying we should call them back after 30 days if we don't hear from them.

On January 07, 2014 we got another email from USCIS that our case has been shipped to the NVC.

On the 13th of January, 2014 we emailed on the NVC Inquiry asking for the status, for which we got no reply, and we even made a call to them after 2 days of emailing them, but there Representative said that it would take 20-30 days more. All he said was that our case is in the building however he doesn't have any update on it, since our case has not been updated on the computer.

We thought once we are through the USCIS things would start moving fast, but they are as slow as the USCIS! :-(

What should we do??

Our petition was approved Jan 2, 2014, and was shipped to NVC Jan 3, 2014. We haven't received any reply from NVC if they have it received already, nothing. So I asked my husband to call NVC last Friday, he said they just received it (what a coincidence), he said we have to wait for another 2 weeks for the case no.

Another 2 weeks, hhmmm Lawyers who don't know what they are doing. If not visajourney, i have already wasted my money to send form DS-230 via fedex and go to the Police office for police record without any case number. Good I made some thinking on what to do first before I made any moves. Luckily my question was answered here abt the form. And I made a decision to call the police, what are the docs needed to get police record certificate. I sent an email to our lawyers (2lawyers joint in the company) regarding this last Thursday and no reply from them (embarrassed perhaps). People from Visa journey are more accurate. LOL

A BIG THANKS TO Saylin and the rest of VJ members. I wish you all good luck and all the best in our visa journey! smile.png
