Lost In Transit

I received my NOA2 with my approval at the beggining of the month. I called NVC and they still have no record of my case. Should I be worried? What do I do?!?

I think it will show up. I'm in the same boat, an early Dec NOA2 that hasn't "arrived yet." It's playing on my nerves, too, an the holiday breaks haven't helped. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to the order in which they come in and out of the NVC. There are people whose NOA2's were a week behind me already at their consulates. It looks like some take up to 4-6 weeks to get out, so I guess you just have to be patient. Of course, I can't, so I imagine you are waiting on pins and needles as well.

Thanks!!! It's nice to know I'm not the only one. I guess I'll just keep playing the waiting game. It seems like we play the game a lot, you'd think we'd get used to it!

When you call NVC again, talk to a customer service agent. My case never registared through the automated service I called for about a week. I finally decided to talk to a live person and she told me that my case had been mailed out that morning to the Embassy. A few days later I called again just to see if the recording would say my case had been mailed out.... But it said they had no record of my file

From my understanding... Most cases are there for such a short time that it doesn't register through the automated service. Mine was only there for 2 days. Go through the prompts that will lead you to a operator. Hopefully you'll get some good news!!

My NOA2 was dated Dec. 7. Called NVC on Dec. 26 and told no go, that it could be 90 days before it arrived! I also e-mailed. Called on the 28th and was told it had arrived on the 26th and was already on the way to the embassy. The e-mail was also answered on the 28th and said that the petition was on its way.

I would call daily and talk to a rep. Do not use automated system, it doesn't work for K-1 apps. If they say it is not there, call the next day. If after some calls you get the same answer ask for more information, a manager or someone.

I'd advice e-mailing NVC. I could never get a hold of anyone on the phone until almost midnight but e-mail worked. They take awhile responding but then our cases go through NVC so fast that they may respond to tell you that your case has already been forwarded to the embassy.
