Just called four times in the last hour...still says closed.

And what is UP with the new and "improved" automated system? I said I wanted english so whyyyyy am i being bombarded with both english and spanish and forced to sit throught the ridiculously long spanish part...only to be told they're closed???

Is this their way of limiting calls? I thought the ridiculous 60 day waiting period was supposed to help reduce their backlog---NOT preventing PAYING customers from getting through.

I called at 2am Hawaii time this morning to hear they are closed..... I'm really upset... I even had my dad call from Ohio to make sure and double check times. Maybe it's an after-Super Bowl holiday? Not cool either way.

Apparently there's a winter storm warming in New Hampshire today, which is why the NVC is closed. If it's really bad, they might be closed tomorrow too, or open late like they did last week, at 3:30. Here's the link to the storm:

I called four times... but you are right they might be closed because of the Storm and I understood this may include tomorrow. Winter Storm Warning remains in effect until 1 am EST Tuesday.

Being from Vermont, I can tell you the weather is crazy right now and a lot of businesses are closed today, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were as well!
