I wish I already know VJ before I filed my petition back in September. I'm afraid we may get RFE :( ..The whole process is very frustrating..Wish me luck! :(

Don't worry about it. Even if you get an RFE, most of them can be knocked out quickly. What do you think you might be RFE'd for?

Hmmm!!!I don't know either..but who knows what's on the crab mentality of the adjucator? :lol:

Nah. Believe it or not, very few VJ petitions are RFE'd. The most common reasons are if you failed to include a required document or you didn't sign something. If you're feeling that stressed about it, just go over the copy of your packet that you made and look for errors or omissions. If you don't see anything glaring then you're fine. But really, even that's not necessary. You're most likely fine.

I got some clarification on that shipment to Manila. My application is probably not in that package because it has to go to NVC first where it will be reviewed and assigned an NVC number. Then it goes from there to Manila. So while the DHL tracking number I have is for a package going to the Manila embassy, my application is not likely to be in it this quick :angry: .

But at least I have learned how to track it. Look here for the instructions: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=98172

Keep on it dewd, because your petition will likely arrive at the NVC tomorrow. I called them today and they told me they received mine on the 11th, and I was approved on the 9th. The lady at NVC told me that I should call back at the end of the week because my petition will likely be on its way to Moscow then. She told me they are turning them out in 3 or 4 days. So, give NVC a call tomorrow in the afternoon and they will probably have your petition. If not tomorrow I would bet for sure on Wed.
