Well I´m not sure what they are trying to say by the 60 days. I have to imagine that must be said only to stop us from calling cuz the NOA2 is only valid for like 4 months I think...so they better send it out to NVC this week :thumbs:

When I spoke with a customer service rep. at NVC regarding the expiration date of the NOA2, they told me that NVC would extend the date if it was close to expiring.

FYI... When I called the NVC yesterday to check on the status of our package they gave me a number [(202)-663-1225] to call to track the Embassy arrival date of our package. Well, I tried to call this number when I got off from work and I got the postal section. I then called the NVC to ensure I had the number right, and I did in fact have the correct number. However, the hours of operation are not what I was told yesterday. The hours of operation are 8:30 am - 5:00 pm (EST) M-F.

Short and long of it:

Call (202)-663-1225 for Visa Application Arrival status at the Embassy

Be sure you call between 8:30 am and 5:00 pm (EST) Monday through Friday, (if not you'll reach "Carl" in the mail room, and he can't help you)

I hope this helps...
