When you ask your fiancé why haven't we received a response? Or when will we get a response? just adds additional stress. There is no answer, and at the end of the day we are in this together. 

So true! I tell her let's not think about it. We are not alone lol.

I just googled my local senator office and set up an account which provided me contact information to local offices.

Was an easy process and they are sending me a privacy act email shortly which I will fill out so they can proceed to look into my case.

Tired of this waiting game - 153 days in waiting for noa2 - they received my rfe 26 days ago.

Hopefully my local Senator office can get some traction.

good luck to all

I just contacted my senator Bob Casey the same way. I just went on his website and filled in the form with my information and wrote in the comments section the problem. Hopefully, this will give me similar results like some others here.I'm sick of waiting for our NOA2 and just want to move on to the next step.

I'm glad I found this forum. We got the NOA1 on March 22. Just waiting like everyone else I guess. We used rapid visa but nothing seems so rapid at the moment. Keeping our fingers crossed! 

Too bad you didn't find this forum before all of us lost our sanity (thanks to uscis).  We really used to be normal functioning individuals - You probably would have liked us LOL

 

Good to have you hang out here.  Speedy NOA2 wishes.

Well either someone with the US Postal Service or the Canada Postal Service stole my card from my fiance. He sent me a card because he knew I was feeling down and needed a pick me up. All I got was the nice envelope carefully slit open on the left side nothing in it. I am sure they were looking for money and were very displeased to find none and just threw the card away and left the envelope for me to receive. My fiance is soooo mad. So then he sent me a ton of virtual cards stating that they won't get stolen and I said unless they get lost in cyberspace. LOL

You will get them, unless he routes them thru the MyUSCIS servers :)

No, the online system is broken. You should be celebrating, not worrying.

 

You can start calling the NVC to get your case # soon, though!

My fiancé called NVC and got case # today. I tried to check my status online but it says "invalid". My case number NVC told is 3 letters and 10 digit number. Is this wrong?

Thank you for a link. Yes, I used this website and chose nonimmigrant. Idk why it's not working...my fiancé called NVC again and they told same case# 

I'm lost.  Possibly this is an embassy specific thing???

Uncharted territory for me.....  Here is the portal for you, but I didn't see anything definitive there on a quick scan.

I just read somewhere that calling is better as they are legally obligated to respond for phone calls. my 2 cents..

I will call them if it doesn't get me anywhere. I got this back from him. I know it's automated, but we'll see what happens.


"Thank you for contacting me. Your e-mail has been received and will be responded to shortly.

Sincerely,
Senator Robert P. Casey, Jr."

It's late here and I just figured I couldn't call, so might as well email and if that doesn't work out I am definitely calling this week to inquire about my case.
