Congratulations to everyone that has made it to NVC and beyond!

Has anyone received a letter from NVC yet?

And, TimsDaisy, shouldn't the NOA2 hard copy be taken to the beneficiary's interview?

You will get a snail mail letter from NVC.

As for the NOA2 at interview, send your fiance a copy of it. You'll also need a copy at AOS time.

I called too and they received it yesterday. The lady had a thick accent so I thought she said the 7th, then I called again with my new BGT case number and the automated system said it got there yesterday.

Guys, please let me know how long it takes you to get the paper NOA2 in the mail. I had a bad experience in getting my NOA1 and don't want to go through that again.

Thanks!

My fiancee is just like that: WHEN IT COMES, IT COMES" lol, that is why I always do things myself, I rather spend some money on phone cards than ask him to do it and have to hear how stressed I am getting over nothing. The only problem about calling is that english speaking people sometimes dnt understand what I am trying to say haha, and spanish ones dnt know anything (noting against latinamericans, I am one of them)... :whistle:

They did, but I had to ask for it - and I almost forgot to ask at all as I was celebrating in my head! It starts with a 3 letter code for whatever your embassy would be - kinda like an airport code, and then a bunch of numbers.
