Is it too early to start calling the NVC?

[Derwood 203]

Our case hasn't arrived yet :-(

The woman I spoke to said I could call back in a week.

Thanks for the heads up though and CONGRATULATIONS!

By the way Chrissy / Rich what is your case showing on the USCS website? Approved or shipped?

Did the DOS give you your LND case number?

I'm confident yours won't be far behind ours and will be at NVC early next week.

Case on USCIS is still the same and saying approved.

Got a LND number.

I just called NVC and they received our case on Friday YAY!

I've booked my medical for the 23rd January as I'm down in London on other business and it will save another 300 mile trip / £80 train fare. I just hope that I haven't booked it in too soon.

I didn't know we could book it so early! What do you need in order to book a medical? I thought they had to have your papers at the Embassy?

If we can book an appointment this early that would be fantastic for me, being able to space the appointments out would make my life a lot easier, as I will have to travel almost 700 miles (the joys of living in the Hebrides.)

Minnescota, when you ring the Knightsbridge doctors they require your embassy case number (beginning LND) before they will let you make an appointment. You also need to be in possession of your police certificate.

Whether I have done the right thing by booking so early I don't know. Hopefully (fingers crossed) London will receive my case before my medical on the 23rd. I just couldn't resist the option to save myself some time and more importantly money as I'm in London on the 23rd anyway.

Awesome news our applications must be side by side with each other.

I'm going to call doctors and book a medical when my NVC status turns to 'IN TRANSIT' as at moment it just says 'AT NVC'. It only takes a couple of days before embassy have it from when NVC send it. I'm hoping it's sent out either today or tomorrow.

[Minnescota 1]

I'm sure it won't be a problem at all seeing as you have your Embassy number.

I had better get my bum in gear and get my police certificate!

My visa is now on its way to the US embassy in London. Yours is properly with it so give the DOS a call and ask as that's what I did. The status on the NVC page still says 'AT NVC' but man on phone said its as just sent it so that will change shortly.

I was just logging in to message you! The status on the website updated for our case about 10 minutes ago to 'In Transit!

Exciting stuff! Thanks!

They've lost mine.

My Fiancee called the USCIS today and spent 3 hours on hold to try and find out something. They're contacting the Texas centre to investigate because nobody knows where my case is...

Wow that's awful. I had my share of a nightmare with the USCIS so know how incompetent they are. Do you have a congressman's office or a senators office involved in your case?

Not yet, I don't think we're likely to get much help there. But our case has been escalated within the USCIS, hopefully they can find something out.

I don't know what to suggest as this is an awful thing to happen. This is no mistake of yours so you have every right to call them as much as u want and speak it a tier 2 officer. Also I would call ya local congressman's office and explain to them what's happened and see what they say. Hopefully they can help as they deal directly with the supervisors at the service centres and are quicker than a service request. Let me know how it goes please as I'm hoping this is all cleared up for you quickly.

Just found out my case has not been put 'in transit' yet

Don't know why they told me it had been yesterday on the phone.

How do you know? Are you sure? I hope both our cases are winging their way across the Atlantic!
