Ouch! Ok, your approvals were a few days after ours. Still.. the guy didn't have to be so rude.

Josh just phoned the NVC and spoke to a rather rude guy who only seemed interested in making Josh read the "it takes 90 days" part of the NOA2 to him :(

So no luck on NVC receiving our file today... i'm hoping it'll be in their system by the middle of next week... othwise i'll resign myself to the fact that ours will be in the nexr trailer :(

Hi, congrats! Yep, approved same day, shipped to NVC in the same shipment.

Its great to see that the CSC to NVC time is coming back down. Anyone else from the mid/late October approval batch call in to NVC? edp333? There were a bunch. Here's hoping for more good news! :thumbs:

When I got back home tonight I called NCV and was told our petition has not arrived yet. The lady kept telling me it takes 2 to 4 weeks. :D Iheld my tongue, but felt like saying it is almost 3 weeks already. Do the math. :jest:

Congrats to the new approvals and the two who have their petitions received by NVC since I have been gone. :thumbs:

So far in this thread, we have Liz Leija(sept. NOA2), supernova (Oct 15 noa2), SilverFuel (Oct. 23 NOA2) already forwarded on to their embassies. Jordanluvr (Oct 22 NOA2), chabo (Oct 19 NOA2) and I (Oct. 22 NOA2) have our petitions at NVC, and have gotten our NVC/embassy case numbers, but they have not been forwarded. SilverFuel was NOA2ed a day after Jordanluvr and I, but managed to get to NVC 1 day before us (and SilverFuel was NOA2ed the same day as edp333 who is not at NVC yet).

Lets keep the trucks rolling into NVC and the DHLs rolling out!! :dance:

Hi Faith, and welcome to the thread! :dance:

Right now the wait to get to NVC is about two and half weeks (which is about 2-3 weeks better than the last batch of approvals). Good luck! :thumbs:
