Sorry to hear about your unfortunate turn of events. My Senator contacted me in about week since I initially contacted her. Just keep hope & faith, and keep thinking positive & praying. It is disappointing at first to be dealt this horrible news, but remain focused, it will all fall into place.

Thanks:) We sent the request through the senator's website. We might try to call senator if we dont get the senator's feedback after one week,

Hi everyone! I haven't been on here in a while. I have my medical on monday. I have a few questions thought about the ds-160. Where it asks for the address where I will be living at. When my fiancé filed the i129f he was living with his parents, so obviously put that down as the address I would be living at too. After the petition was approved he moved into his own place. So I don't know whether to put on the ds160 his new address for the one I will be living at? I was worrying that it'll be a problem because the addresses won't match on the i129f and ds160. Ive tried contacting the embassy in london but theres no way to get through to a person, you can only email. Haven't had a response of them yet its been about 5 days.

I received my NO2 in the mail on Friday the 13th. Called this morning and NVC still hasn't received it. They keep telling me I'm not waiting long enough for my case number and it takes 35 days and then 42 days for processing. Can I keep calling everyday? Will this delay anything? My approval date was Feb 5th.

in my opinion.. relax

unless the days are 30+ from noa2 until you've heard about anything from NVC, just relax

It's been less than two weeks. Get a grip.

The people in this thread have been waiting a month, two months, three months. You won't find much sympathy here.

You should probably use the new address, since that's where you'll want any correspondence to go. Not that they send you anything, mind you.

Easy. I wasn't asking for sympathy. I was simply asking if calling everyday would cause harm or be pointless or if I should just do it weekly. I'm assuming everyone here has started calling the NVC and just curious how they began calling and what intervals they made the attempt.

I am by no means looking for sympathy. As this is the step I am in I am curious about everyone else's experiences in this step and reviewing others timelines within this step.

I'm not worried or concerned. Just very interested in this portion.

I am very sorry for all of those who have waited longer that normal times in this step and I very much hope they hear back very soon.

Everyone can tell everyone to relax while going through this process but that is all easier said than done for some and I do realize I am very fortunate as it is.

Feel free to come back to this thread when you're frustrated by waiting 80 days or more for your case number.

Both my fiancee and I have moved since the I-129f was submitted, so our addresses are different on the DS-160. I don't think it will be an issue, but I guess we won't know for sure until her interview next month.

Your fiance should probably fill out the change of address request form for USCIS though so they're not confused when you have to do your adjustment of status after you get married.

The interview stage. Everything else is done. The consulate scheduled the interview for March 17th. It was a lot later than we expected, since most Indonesia timelines here on VJ have interviews no more than 2-3 weeks after the embassy has received the application. Oh well, at least there is light at the end of the tunnel!
