Waiting on the VSC to make a decision?

[Bill y Bella 0]

Hey guys (directed mainly at Bill I suppose),

I got a letter from NVC that gave me our case number and said blah blah in about a week your petition will be forwarded. This was 2 days ago. I, of course, called on...Wednesday, I believe, and was told it had already left. Hm.

My main concern however, is that they misspelled my fiancee's last name on this form. On both NOA1 and NOA2, her name is correct.

If I were to call DOS, could they tell me

1) If it's made it to London yet. They can tell you the status of your petition once the embassy enters the receipt of your petition in the system.

2) If her name being misprinted on this letter is a problem.

3) If it is, can they fix it?

On every document but this, her name is spelled right. I'd like to think that this letter is rather meaningless to the whole process but I'd like to know for certain before I assume it is and then find out "oh ####### that's a problem" when she gets to, say, the interview.

I don't know the answers to your questions except the first one. I think your best bet is to just call DOS and ask them. I doubt if the incorrect spelling on the letter will cause any problems since your I-129F, NOA1 & NOA2 all have the correct spelling. However, one never knows for certain so it might not be a bad idea to touch base with DOS or NVC.

Are they open on the weekend? Or am I gonna have to wait till Monday to speak to someone?

Bill, yup , makes sense!

Here it goes, posted by Turtles today!

I have just recieved an email saying

On December 6, 2007, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). Please follow any instructions on the notice. If you move before you receive the notice, call customer service.

That is a new one for most of us I think. They also have not updated their timeline yet. That makes 3 this month that were approved and never updated their timeline. I saw you asked them to update so maybe they will get the message.

I would send NVC an email and call them. They usually take about a week to respond to emails. That way you will have something in writting.

I read something somewhere before that said if there was a name problem after USCIS to contact NVC and the servicing American embassy.

Good luck...you'll get them straightened out.

The thing is, I don't believe there is a true name problem. Like I said, all the 'official' documents have her correct name on them...

Understand, but somewhere in some system they have the name spelled wrong, so it is the same issue to get to the bottom of it. They didn't hand write you the letter did they? Ok then, there is a database that is incorrect somewhere and I would nip it in the bud before it has a chance to bite you later.

I sent an email to NVC just now. Hopefully they won't take too long to get back to me.

Congratulations!

By the way there were a lot of approvals announced today. There are too many to announce so you can look for yourselves here.

The month's total is now up to 23 or maybe 22 because I think A&K and K&A are the same member. But 22 is not so bad!
