Our NOA2 was approved on September 21st and NVC hasn't gotten the paperwork yet.

Anyone else who got their NOA2 in September still waiting for NVC to get their docs? If so, please state your NOA2 and the state where your NOA2 was processed please (that way we can see which states seem to be having the issue with processing and mailing delays).

WHOOP!!!!

NOA2 September 17th 2015

NVC phonecall told us that LND2015795... so by looking at the julian calendar 795-500=295 which is October 22nd 2015 (I think?!)

Is that date the 'received date'?

Or the date the 'case number was assigned'??

I want to keep our timeline nice and neat - and try to work out when the case might arrive in London

You should actually only subtract 499 to get the correct date if you're looking at the chart from VJ because it includes February 29th and we're not in a leap year. I figured this because they told me the date my case number was created and it was a day off from using this formula.

I used an easier to read version I found on google.

Leap years not included.

Just checked by asking google and it kindly confirms that "October 22 is the 295th day of the year (296th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar."
