If I wasn't so much in love this waiting wouldn't be so bad - but I am so it is :( I've read elsewhere that CIS holds approved NOA2s until they have a box or crate full. Well if this is true mine must have just missed the box. I've seen others here whose NOA2 is dated just a few days before mine and the NVC received it only a week later. Our NOA2 is dated 10/26 and I'm still waiting. Very frustrating! :crying: One would think they would rather have a steady flow of these things coming to the NVC instead of having a huge pile dumped one a month! Oh well, what can I do but try and be patient.

I've read that they sent out 2 crates last week so it's a good sign to come. Try contacting them to see if maybe yours got shipped out last week. Most of us who were approved in September waited at least 5 weeks before NVC received our cases. Hang in there. :thumbs:

I just got off the phone with the USCIS office. They tell me they have no way of knowing if my petition has actually left their office. They could only tell me that it might take as much as 90 days for the NVC to receive it!!! :crying:

AndyM, I was approved on 10/18 and it's not been received yet (as of 11/9), but was told twice it was shipped out on 11/6. Those that were approved the day before me already have their cases at the embassies. Hopefully they send them from NVC to the embassies this week for those of us who had to wait till the 6th for the next crate to leave CSC.

I'm usually a pretty patient person, but this is driving me nuts! :wacko: How were you able to get them to tell you a specific date it was shipped? All I can get is the usual canned response of "as much as 90 days." If the statistics that you show here hold true I think we'll be in pretty good shape. I sure wish I could get more specific answers out of them though.

Thanks for your input!

Andy

Hey Andy, when I called USCIS I just asked them to give me the date it was shipped to NVC. I called twice and was given the date both times. Good luck!

Maybe just lucky?? But most of us that called last week got actual dates sent. Both times I got a person who told me my case had been sent out and the first person I spoke to told me the date and I asked the second person to verify the date sent. You're not alone..this process drives us all nuts! :wacko:

We called NVC ...they still havent received it...said it usually takes 14-28 days :thumbs:

:dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:

But, did you call CSC to see if it was even sent out yet? If not, try calling them first Marta. You can't go by what it says on the actual NOA2. I got my NOA2 on 10/18 and it was just sent out last week on 11/6. Good luck and keep us posted :)

Just got off the phone with NVC and even though CSC says mine was sent out on 11/6 (I've called CSC 3 times now and get the same answer) and others sent out on the same date have been received by NVC already, mine is MIA...no where in sight. They have no record of it. It has been 4 weeks today since my approval...I'm really getting tired of all this waiting :crying::crying::crying:
