December 2014 filers (TSC) - post NOA2 approval thread

Awesome!!! We still haven't gotten packet 3 ... Hopefully embassy sends us stuff soon !

Interview booked.

Our case was sent on July 10th and got the case number on the 20th ..

Hey - we have been waiting 7 days since the NVC has received our case and most people seem to be out of NVC in 3 - 4. Is this normal? Also - it said ceac says I should get instructions from them but I haven't received anything - should I contact them??

[kromero2 1]

Is the NVC status ever inaccurate? Our status says At NVC - is there the chance it has already been sent to the embassy but not updated yet?

Finally our case is headed to the Dominican Republic!!!

When I check my status on CEAC it says "In Transit. Your case is in transit to the Consular Section. Your intervie date was provided to you by the National Visa Center."

I have no idea what our interview date is. What are they referring to? Will we receive instructions by email or mail?

Have you tried contacting the embassy to see if they have sent it? I'm not sure about Cameroon but in Canada you can get packet 3 online, so you could check if that's a possibility. That way you wouldn't have to wait for packet 3 to come in the mail.

[roralau 8]

Email the embassy.. we didn't receive the package as soon as they got it because at NVC they typed the address wrong and the same day they sent us the packet 3.

As for Canada we can download it too from the US EMBASSY page (TRY AND GO ON YOUR EMBASSY PAGE UNDER VISA MENU).

Thanks for your reply, but apparently you have to request Packet 3 and they will email it to you. They don't have addresses there and most people don't have P.O. boxes, so they can't be mailed. I did email the embassy twice, once three weeks ago and then one week ago, but no answer. I called from the U.S. and the number doesn't work, and my fiance called and they put him through to a voicemail so he's gonna try again tomorrow.

I'm not so worried about getting Packet 3 because a friend of mine who finished everything in March gave me a copy. I just want our interview date and to know we can schedule medical.

Hope they answer soon then!

GEEZ THOUGH.. I got it in September!!

Do you guys know if there is a possibility for asking for a prior date?

You can try, but don't pin your hopes on it...I am guessing August is a vacation period, hence fewer appointments available.

[roralau 8]

I emailed them thanking for their help (they reply pretty quickly !) and let's see.. But CELEBRATION WE HAVE A DATE !! Ahahah

Sorry to bring you guys back to the bad memories of when no NOA2 was yet received, but can you please tell me based on your experience?

Today a tier 2 officer said the case left security clearance on JULY 14, 2015 and that it is now back to processing. Should we expect our NOA 2 soon?

Case was received on December 18 (we are about to hit the 8th months) so, you can imagine how desperate we are. :/ We have both senators (MA) inquiring on our behalf...

Thanks for understanding.

Just for curiosity, I found 71 cases for my country (Vietnam) for the day that my case was assigned a number. A case specialist at NVC confirmed my package was sent to the embassy on July 31. My case is now "in transit" and all other 70 ones are still "at NVC". I have tried the DHL tracking trick without success. Could anyone explain this? Thank you in advance.

I tried this:

EXP 31 JUL 2015A

DATE RANGE: JULY 31 - AUGUST 3, 2015

DESTINATION: VIETNAM
