Geez, I still do not have a case number from NVC. Everything needs to be super slow for me -_- . DS-160 is ready  I just need the case. Packet 3 is even ready, missing some evidences as I am waiting last minute for phone records and medical (obviously). I just want to  verify that I am giving the right number, the WAC number that is on the NOA2 and is actually the one from NOA1 as well? 

I had gotten a bit better after finally being accepted, but NVC process is also taking longer than normal so really grrr...

 

Thank you,

 

Yes, the WAC number on NOA2 is similar to the NOA1. You are giving the correct number. Hang in there, it took me 3 weeks to get that freaking case number. :girlwerewolf2xn:

March filer here. I'm just wishing everyone luck and hope you all have your NOA2 approvals very shortly! I've noticed they are all over the place. They're approving people from December still, and I believe I still seen some activity in the November thread. It's messed up how USCIS is working out of order like this. Everyone should get their approvals in a certain order. But it seems they are working on multiple months at a time. But congratulations to all of those getting their approvals! Congrats to all of you, and to those who haven't yet, stay strong. You will see or hear something soon! <3 

Much love, peace, and happiness.

Update my fellow people! 

 

I Called the NVC Today and their 0700 number was too tough to get through, so I called the other line and got through okay. I Finally got a Case #, on the CEAC it says it is currently at the NVC so hopefully it will reach the consulate sometime this week :dancing:

Congratulations!! :D What was your NOA2 date? We're April 27th & still waiting on case number. Hoping hoping hoping!!

This is just a question since you are a Canadian filier, do you get packet 3 and 4 in an email or in the mail or did you just use the online pdf forms?

I asked a similar question a while back and the I-134 is for fiancé the I-864 is for spouse

Oh okay perfect so we only need the I-134 :) and I received packet 3 in the mail it also came with the pamphlet for domestic abuse and your rights as an immigrant. Packet 4 however I got through my email. I sent the scanned copy of my ds-160 confirmation page, scanned copy of my packet 3 checklist and a scanned coloured copy of my passport bio page. <-----that's packet 3. I sent that on May 26th and received packet 4 just yesterday may 30th. I did also print off the PDF forms just in case though they do help out a lot. Once you be sent packet 3 back to the embassy just wait patiently for the packet 4 it will come in your email 3-7 business days after you send it.
