Checked both immigrant and non-immigrant?

 

I know someone had this in June I think and they just called to confirm the number and status, so it is heard of don't worry.

Do we proceed and set up the interview once we have our NVC number?

[MandW 310]

nope, need to wait for the embassy to receive the case and then they send out the packet

hey all we received our NOA-2 in the mail today dated 2.20.18 AND it is still marked as received at USCIS.... Hope this is encouraging to all!  mad prayers for everyone waiting!

For Philippines yes.  You first pay the visa fee, then you can schedule the interview.

Called in, let them talk, requested tier 2. Tier 2 Just called. Our case 8/21 recieved date has not been assigned to an officer yet. Atleast I can stop obsessivly checking the case. Hopefully Naes has more good news from the scans for the completion of early August so the 2nd half can be touched. Oy Vey.

I just got my letter but I see it using informed delivery and I'm at work. Work is killing me now!

Never been so impatient. Once they start processing your case, how long until you hear back regarding an approval or RFE? I know that this is like asking somebody the length of a piece of string but I’m getting antsy.

Has someone here received your second notification? I am from August 17 and I have not received anything yet

There was a blog from way back when of a former adjudicator who said once they have your file, it takes like 15 mins to look through it.
But we don't know like once someone looks at it and says RFE/Approval, does it go through all sorts of other nonsense before the app updates/letter gets sent in the mail.

But I mean we have people here that get a Tier two and Tier II says something like "Oh. you should be getting your approval notice shortly but it's not approved yet."
So at this point, we know NOTHING. lol

Some people from VJ are getting their notifications.

But am August 9th- Still waiting. Many of us before August 17th are still waiting.
So don't worry- that's pretty "normal"

Thank you. My partner talked to Tier 2 last week and they were processing it as they were on the phone (apparently).

That depends on the embassy.

ok thank you well My fiancé is in Kingston Jamaica. Not sure how I will know when to have him go for it. LOl I guess we will just wait to see when we get our NOA2 and we get the improval letter if it will tell us at what point to go get the medical exam.

I just did this - Call the number. Give them your case number. Listen patiently for them to finish their scripted stuff. Then, say hey you know we have been really patient through this process and have not bugged you up until now. Could you please connect me with Tier 2 so that we could perhaps see additional information regarding the case. I suspect if your nice like i was, they will forward you over to their call back system. Just punch in your call back number and Tier 2 will call you within maybe an hour.

 

Hope this helps!
