Literally just got an email this morning with the same 'Post-Decision Activity' from USCIS -- so going to try calling the NVC in a week. Hopefully can pick up the case number by then!

And I do think this is a backlog because of the March/April slowdown; so hopefully, like the July NOA dates, it'll pick up again shortly!

I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat. The vast majority of cases before and after my case number have been approved or have received RFEs.? But hopefully this just means that those of us still waiting should hear something soon.

I read its recommended to do email inquiry and send it to NVC for status update. Anyone here have tried that? Did you guys get any reply from them. Though, will still be calling them around the end of the month since they said its 2-4weeks before we hear from them.

We are hoping to hear from them like first week of August at least. Can't wait to close the distance with my fiance. Cheers to everyone! To those still waiting for their NOA2 hang in there and for those waiting for MCN from NVC hang tight we will make it through. :dancing:

NOA1: April 11

NOA2: June 28

NOA2 Hard Copy Received: July 1

I think this email is for people around after June 25. Probably after the backlog in NVC receiving and assigning numbers, there have been so many calls that USCIS opted for doing this "post-decisión activity", instead of calls raining on NVC folks.

I read its recommended to do email inquiry and send it to NVC for status update. Anyone here have tried that? Did you guys get any reply from them. Though, will still be calling them around the end of the month since they said its 2-4weeks before we hear from them.

We are hoping to hear from them like first week of August at least. Can't wait to close the distance with my fiance. Cheers to everyone! To those still waiting for their NOA2 hang in there and for those waiting for MCN from NVC hang tight we will make it through. :dancing:

I sent an email on Friday and today morning I got this answer:

Dear Sir/Madam:

Thank you for your inquiry. We do not have a record of receiving your petition.

It can take at least six weeks for the National Visa Center (NVC) to receive an approved petition from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and enter it in the U.S. Department of State's database system. If it has been less than six weeks since USCIS approved your petition, you don't need to take any action at this point.

If USCIS approved your petition more than six weeks ago, please send us a scanned copy of your I-797 or I-171 Notice of Action - Approval Notice. You can attach the scanned copy to an email, and send it to nvcresearch@state.gov.

In the subject line of your email, please type the original receipt number from your I-130 Approval Notice. If you have more than one petition, send a separate email for each petition. Once we receive the copy of your approval notice, we will contact USCIS to find your petition.

Before you send us an email, please check your Notice of Action and make sure it says your petition was approved. If it says that USCIS kept your petition, or if it is a notice other than an approval, you should contact USCIS for more information. You can contact them on their website at uscis.gov, or by telephone at 1-800-375-5283.
