I will call again in 2 days.

this is pretty standard, no?

This worked for me: Do call again in 2 days, making sure to reach an Immigration Officer. Ask him exactly where in the "Division" your file is. When he tells you, politely ask him to send an e-mail to the floor to ask the appropriate person to carry it to the next station.

This last is "talking their language," and the action is something that they can do for you. The request to send an e-mail is also a crucial part of keeping your file moving. Try it!

called again today.

the lady was nice.

she told me that our case was already assigned to an officer and that we should hear something soon.

i took your advice and asked her to send an email to the floor to see if they could get the application to the next station if it was done at the current one.

she said she could only send an email to the officer to let them know there was an inquiry.

I will call again tomorrow.

Thanks! :thumbs: (Although I'm celebrating our interview approval and him being here in a couple of weeks!)

Oh criminy, I KNEW that! I've totally got NOA2 on the brain. I just can't seem to NOA2 without NOA2 NOA2 NOA2!

Most Japanese toasts I know of are long (they tend to get long-winded after a few :) ) So, the Russian toast is great!! To friendship!

Oh wait...isn't there one that sounds like "kam pai?" I have no idea what it means, I have a buddy that always says it when we have Saki.

Yes :) It means "cheers" :thumbs:

They're out checking their mailboxes first :) I didn't get an update from CRIS until long after we were approved, but I did get the NOA2 in the mail. Besides...no crickets out tonight..it's cold and we've had rain mixed with snow all day :)

Let's hear it! who got an NOA2 in the mail??

Oh, sneaky. Edith and Matthew still have their profiles set to Nebraska Service Center. No wonder I didn't get notified. For a sec I thought I thought you had a bug I could present to StP as a peace offering! :lol:

Congrats to both of the new approvals!

Good to see you here ^_^

And at least there is some movement at CSC now... I'm thinking it will be quicker once they complete the backlog for July since lots of people filed to beat the fee increase (perhaps as a result fewer people filed in August and September?).

Maybe - I just don't understand why things have slowed down so much... maybe they were all working hard at the end of last year so they could get their bonus or somethign?!?!? :lol:
