I've been thinking this as I followed this thread lately, too. There's so much negativity here recently and much of it comes from obsessive phone calls with long wait times and less-than-charming oper

Guys when we call NVC to ask if they have recieved our case do they ask for approval number too? I called them for the third time today. Yesterday they said they haven't recieved it today the guy I thnk Shawn asked me to read the first two lines of my approval letter. Simce my husband has it I told him I don't have it yet so he said ok then call when u have it. Is it normal? Or was he just mr. Nasty pants? Lol

Unfortunately, he was being Mr. Nasty Pants, as the first two lines of the letter say something about allowing them 30 days before inquiring....

I'm so sick over this Birth cert thing. I called again and spoke to Kendall. She was so nice. She told me it doesn't say anything about the birth cert being a copy. Usually when it is the wrong one they put notes in the file. There are no notes. she let me talk to a supervisor.. He was super nice. He will personally review my file and I am supposed to call back Wednesday night and ask for him.

He said he has no idea why they check listed me for the police cert. He said it is not needed for Costa Rica. ( which I already knew) There are 3 supervisor requests now. One for the police cert and two for the birth cert. I asked them why I need to pay for their mistakes by wasting time waiting 30 days for them to RE-review my file. I guess that's why he said to call on Wednesday. Kendall told me there are more mistakes than we think and this happens alot and Since there are no notes about the birth cert, they might have just over looked it. :dead::blink::huh::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

My husband is sick and now he has to go to the city and get another birth cert and FedEx it to me. WASTE OF MORE MONEY UGHGHGHGHGHGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH I am not taking any chances incase the supervisor decides the original is not acceptable , I'm just mailing the certified copy anyway.....

Lovemytico- my husband birth cert is a certified copy. It's a printed paper with a few stamps on it. Also I asked my senator to put in supervisor review which may be why it goes quicker? I might call tomorrow and demand a supervisor to review since my marriage cert is certified it just doesn't look like it.

I hate all visa people.
