Called today at about 9:00am... got through with someone at the NVC at 9:30, told them our case # and NOA2 approval date (5/21) and they said it takes 35 days... and that was the end of the phone call.

Ahh! I had to call CBP myself and they helped. We had the wrong number. So we DO have an i94. We already sent in our AOS, too. Great! Now to yell at these people... Lol. Thanks guys! I appreciate it

Yeah, that's what bothered me about the call. I gave her my case # and she asked when I got my approval. As soon as I said May 12, she blurted out the 35 day thing right away. I don't even think she looked up the case #.

Question about your timeline,.. How do you know what date they sent your petition to NVC?

What is a certificate of readiness? I can't seem to see it in the embassy checklist.

UK people have to submit it to tell the embassy that we have everything we need for the interview. Then they will schedule the interview. Maybe other embassies who allow the beneficiaries to schedule their own interviews don't use this...?

This is what it looks like for the UK: http://london.usembassy.gov/iv/notification_of_applicant_readiness_form.html
