It has not changed.

Thanks Clary. Sorry about your checklist. hopefully it's a false checklist and you'll hear back from the supervisor soon. If not, why not call again, and keep on calling until someone connects you to a supervisor.

I have not heard somebody getting a status changed when having a checklist.

I don't think in case of checklist it would change. It only changes either for Cc or if they agree for you to bring any missing documents to interview directly.

 

Clary has confirmed that your status doesn't change. Thank you Clary for confirming that. Thank you Adreamer for bringing this up as I wasn't sure. The NVC really needs to work on updating their 'status update' part of the system, by adding "At mailroom", "Under Review", "Checklist", "Approved". Imagine the amount of calls they would save if they would update us in real time..

Clary has confirmed that your status doesn't change. Thank you Clary for confirming that. Thank you Adreamer for bringing this up as I wasn't sure. The NVC really needs to work on updating their 'status update' part of the system, by adding "At mailroom", "Under Review", "Checklist", "Approved". Imagine the amount of calls they would save if they would update us in real time..  

Agree. I will call back again tonight. Hopefully they let  us bring the birth certificate (which we are sure they have). A supervisor is supposed to call us back but I can not wait. Do you happen to know how long does that usually take for them to call back?

Actually, I don't know..I've read that some did receive an email within a few days but that was only after speaking to a supervisor..  Just be careful to not  go under administrative processing.. This is what happened to @Dinah As you can see on the spreadsheet or on this forum, she's been having an awful experience.. ... My advice, keep on calling until you can get connected to a supervisor. Someone will eventually connect you..
