I called today the NVC and had a real person on the phone. She has told me that they have send a package of informations and documents out on sep.17. I saked her for more details and she explained that the documents are the DS-230 and the I-846. Is this usual that they sending all the papers out together. But I have not received it yet. What can I do. Its already more then 4 weeks ago....

:thumbs: Thats good news. If you are doing James Shortcut and have already made them on your own- I-864 and DS230, then you may go ahead and send them since they have on their records it was sent already been sent out. As per your question, it just so happen in your case that both I-864 and DS230 are sent out together, thats not the case for the most of us.

It doesn't seem normal to me Lilikoi, sometimes they are very slow getting something in the mail - they may say they sent it on the 17th but not REALLY mailed it until like 2 weeks later. Even so, a month to receive them seems unusual.

Are they being sent to a U.S. address?

Yes, hopefully today! Have you called and spoken with an operator or just using the IVR? Sometimes they don't update the IVR right away, noticed in the Canada forum here the other day, someone got an interview and the IVR still said - reviewing documents wait 8 weeks etc etc. So I'm just thinking who knows how many days it takes for them to update if it is approved.

Anyway, I did call yesterday, got another very helpful person - still no update though, still reviewing weeeeee!

(thanks for your note rina :) )

I've not spoken to anyone today in person no, maybe i should eh, i'm starting to think they are getting annoyed with me calling so much. The IVR still says the same so i guess i could give it a go... although i think i've missed the best times to call haven't i? When do they close the lines?

I've read it many times but can't remember when they close the lines :)

I have gotten through every time I've called - morning, afternoon - never tried at night. Granted, yesterday I did have to redial 5 times - but that's no biggie.

And I was thinking about the 'calling too often' thing. Basically they aren't updating the IVR all the time, in some cases, if they did do that and we could rely on it, they would get fewer calls for the operators - so I've decided I will just call every couple of days.
