Ah!  I see.  I didn't know about that link until yesterday.  And all it said was "Ready".  When I went home yesterday, my letter had arrived.  Too bad.  

But thank you for your info.  =)  

The whole process is not very intuitive to me. lol.

Good luck!

Hey Forena,

 

We called NVC last week on Tuesday morning and our case had not been received - we called again on Thursday and they were able to give us our case number.  From there I tracked the case number on ceac case tracker.  It showed as 'at NVC' until yesterday when it changed to 'in transit' and then today it changed to 'ready'.  I guess that NVC must have received our case on Tuesday or Wednesday of last week (probably Tuesday after we called) and assigned the number on Wednesday as they were able to give us the case number on Thursday morning.  No cases were sent on Friday (I checked the DHL tracker) or on Monday (Presidents Day) but my case has been updated in London today and the last packages to leave the NVC for London were assigned tracking on Thursday for despatch.  So this must be when my case left NVC.  Although our case must have been despatched on Thursday it didn't get updated at NVC with the 'in transit' status until yesterday which is when our case arrived according to the dhl tracker.

 

As I had my case number and knew that the case was now in London, I 'signed' my DS-160 and filed that today (although it doesn't need your NVC case number it asks for your receipt # -WAC -  for your petition).  I then tried to arrange my visa interview but after getting into the site to book an interview it said 'case not yet ready for interview' and highlighted my case number - so I guess I have to wait for my letter from the Consulate.

 

Ok, cool (sort of).  Thanks for the info.  I think I just missed the boat on checking the case tracker.  Didn't get the link until yesterday after all was said and done.  My case said, 'Ready', yesterday.  And DHL says package shipped yesterday too.  

Thanks again and good luck!  Have a feeling yours will happen way before mine, haha!  I'm ok with that though. 

Cheers,

Forena99

Hey everyone, writing to you guys from here in the Philippines with my fiancé to let you know we called the NVC this morning and received our case number. Our NOA2 date is 2/9 and they just received our case yesterday. We will make the interview and medical appointment tonight as I paid the visa fees this morning at BPI. I will continue to keep everyone updated and we love to see and hear about everyone's progress so far. Congratulations and good luck to everyone!

Congrats!!

Until I have my NOA2 what are the places I can check the status for my fiancé's Visa? VJ Timeline and where else? Is it just the Check my Status link on the USCIS website or is there an app I'm supposed to get? 

It's the Case Tracker on the USCIS website, and you can use the mobile apps. You can also signup on the USCIS website (there's a link on the Case Tracker page) to make an account and have it email and/or text you updates for RFE/NOA2.

And it's nonimmigrant @geowrian?

Yes. K-1 is a non-immigrant visa. Although, when you eventually get to t he NVC stage, use their immigrant visa number as they bunch in K-1s with immigrant visas there. Awesome..
