Called NVC the poor guy told me to wait to call around August 8th...... and if they still haven't gotten it then something is wrong. He had asked me for my number a few times, didn't show up in the system, I tried to tell him about the new and old websites, old website still doesn't show my account, and the new one does. So he asked me for my number on the NOA2, told him, he had asked for my approval date, and told me to call around August 8th. blah. 

 

Btw the guy told me that its super slow right now, I had apologized to him for taking a bit to long since I was at my pc bring up a photocopy of the notice.
