So after almost 8 months of waiting our NAO1 finally got approved. 

 

My husband called earlier and asked to speak with a Tier 2 supervisor. They returned the call about 2 hours later and said we had been approved today and they will be sending the letter of approval in the mail  

 

So happy!! Finally on to the NVC

Hey guys!!! Husband sent me photos of the approval letter first thing when i woke up!!

He actually has to cancel the INFOPASS appointment with the local office he has been trying to arrange for a week as it was so full   

 

- PD: Feb 16

- NOA2 date: Aug 31  

- Initial content WITHOUT beneficiary birth cert

 

- Request for typo / information update on NOA1 sent Jun2

- Clarification letter for country of birth sent Jun 2

- Beneficiary birth cert as supplemental information sent Jul 28

 

I'm not sure if everyone's letter looks the same but ours says "As the petitioner requests, we sent the petition to NVC blah blah blah.......The NVC will contact the beneficiary with further information about processing steps.......Allow 30 days before contacting NVC"

 

Do we all receive the same thing? When do i expect the info from NVC and will they mail it to Hong Kong or just by email?

 

By the way website still says "We Received....." and the online case status account still showing our case inquiry has been assigned to someone lol
