Happy, happy! Just got off phone with NVC and got case number and invoice number. One week exactly since received by them.

Spoke with NVC this morning with a very pleasant woman. Case number has been assigned but they are still working the file so I should not try to login to CEAC until it's completed later today.

I thought I did something wrong,, They both said pay now so I was hoping that I didn't miss a check box to select both.
