What kind of expedite is this ?

[ettadamen 0]

In mid-june I got into an accident while I am waiting for a case number from the NVC. as soon as i received the case number I filed for an expedite request. On July 3rd I received an email that my expedite request was forwarded to the embassy which got approved on August 7th.

Now since August 12th my case status is ready at the Embassy I've been trying to contact them since with numerous emails and phone calls and nobody responded to me

I even contacted my senator office and still no response from the embassy

It's been almost 2 months since I filed my expedite request.

Any advice or input on what to do would be greatly appreciated

I've found getting answers..or even speaking with a real person at the embassy in Tunisia is impossible. Have you followed up with the senators office? My issue is only a couple of weeks old but I have not stopped..faxing..emailing..and calling anyone that I think will listen.

Wish I could offer better advice .. or better words of comfort.. but hang in there.

It took about two months for me to receive any contact from the Tunis embassy, you'll need to be patient. But, at the two month mark, after my case was sent from NVC and I had still heard nothing, I contacted the NY senator and she looked into it, and then I magically received the initial contact from the embassy, so I am pretty sure it had something to do with it.

It isn't impossible to get somebody on the phone. You need to call, and ask the operator specifically to speak with the person who processes the type of visa you are applying for. You would want to call around 12-2pm Tunis time. But, they won't reply to your e-mails until they have picked up your case, so not worth the effort. After they start working on your case they are pretty responsive though.
