What You Mean Send Correct Case Number???????!!!!!!!?????

[aisha1023 4]

Today I received the strangest email from the Cairo Embassy and I wanted to share my experience. Maybe there is someone out there with a little insight to my situation.

I sent email to Embassy checking on the status of case after DHL delivery of renewed passport and medical Exam.

Good Morning and Happy New Year Consular,

My husband and I received his passport and a letter through DHL stating that he needed to renew his medicals, passport, and complete the DS-260 online application.

We completed all requested steps and our CEAC had a new date:

Case Creation Date: 03-May-2012
Status Updated Date: 05-Jan-2014

We have not heard word if we completed the necessary steps correctly and where do we stand from here. If there is any information still needed I will be more than happy to provide you with all you need to complete our application. I pray that I am not a bother but I have been told that we are close to the end of this first of any journeys in our life. I am just a little excited to know if this is true.

Thank you for your great service

CORRECT CASE NUMBER?????????????????? Every email is addressed with Embassy approved format. FYI case number correct in every email to the Consular of the Embassy. So I replied:

Good Morning

Thank you for your reply. His name is Ahmed XXXXXXXXXXXXX and case number is CRO2012XXXXXX. I address all my emails as requested by the Embassy. Is there a different number I should be using??????

Thank you waiting on your prompt reply.

Now I have to say the response was quick. 20 mins later I received this reply:

Thank you for your e-mail message.

Please note that your case is currently undergoing mandatory administrative processing. The time needed to review an individual’s case is difficult to predict. Once this process is complete, we will notify you of the next step in your case.

Regards,

Consular Staff

I hope I am not hurting my case by the email inquiries but this one reply threw me for a lope. If you received a weird and a little crazy email from the Embassy please post it here. I would love to read fellow VJ's experiences. Remember always keep your faith and be positive no matter what.
