HEEY.....
the exact same thing (well almost) just happened to my fiancee and I.
Actually, I had just logged on to vj and was reading this thread while talking to Joseph on Skype.
I was all... hey, we could never check our case status online either.
So... we checked it.
AND
WE'RE APPROVED.

So, congratulations to you... we'll be with you on the next leg of the journey.
Good Luck!!


CONGRATS to you too!! good.gif
Isnt that just a great feeling?! Never being able to check and all of a sudden you look and the APPROVAL notice pops up!! The first moments you just dont believe it and i kept checking the number cuz thought it was a typo haha!
Good luck with the rest of your journey too!!

Congratulations!!!

I am in a similar situation as you (were!). I cannot track my case, the website does not recognize me, and I received my NOA1 roughly 4 months ago. Without recognition of my case number, I am unable to register my case as well. So I was wondering if USCIS will use my email address on the I-129F to inform me of approval? It is the only place I know that my email appears (without registration). Thanks for your help and again, congratulations.


I had the same, we couldnt track our case online untill today and that was because we were approved!! I was also afraid that they would send the letter and that it got lost or something and then you never know you were approved.
But all I can say is: Keep checking the online status and as long as there is the error message, then I would say no approval, one day all of a sudden you will be shocked and see its approved! Its coming im sure!! Keep your hopes up, i know what you feel when you arent able to check the status!

Did you hear something already from your petition? Last thing I heard was that your mom called and you found out where your case was. Still not approved?

Hopefully it comes soon for you because you have waited soo long!! unsure.gif

Hi all, congrats to everyone who got their NOA2's!

Question, what about the next step? We got approved 2/27 and i received the hard copy 3/5, but since then .... silence. i called the NVC and they say they have not received our case to even forward to the foreign consulate yet, that it normally takes 2-4 weeks after approval (which does not match what i'm seeing on people's timelines) and there's nothing they can do since they havent received it yet, then i called the VSC and they said the last status they have on our case is the 2/27 "approved" and cannot say where it is now or when it will be sent to the NVC... who can i get info from, or is there really nothing to do except sit tight and wait? I thought we were ahead of schedule there but now it seems like we're right back in nowhere-land. Can anyone advise?

Thanks!!!
Matt & Huong


Wow thats really long!! Maybe call the USCIS to see if they forwarded it to the NVC, cuz if they did..means its lost in the mail maybe.
We got approved 2 days before you and we got already packet 3, returned that, got packet 4 yesterday with the interview date, April 16...
Just call the uscis..cant hurt...nvc usually is pretty fast! Idk about ur consulate..could also call them to see if they got anything...but i dont htink the nvc makes a mistake in saying they didnt get it yet.

Good luck!! hope it will all be ok soon!

We filed November 22 and got approved February 20,
Now I have no idea where the package is. How do you find out the path of it?

I sent an email to the NVC, no answer
I called the NVC, the online system, case not found.
Tried to talked to someone at NVC, impossible.
I sent an email to the embassy, no answer

So how do you get the dates that your package left NVC or arrived at the embassy?

Thanks

ESoll


You have to speek with a person at NVC, sometimes the lines are busy but my fiance got through the first time he called. Approved Nov 25, and our case left NVC March 3rd. We think we found our package by DHL and are tracking it on the way to amsterdam, its almost at the embassy!
The NVC will give you a new casenumber so i dont think you can check the online system. Im not sure. Your new case number will start with the letters from the consulate it will be forwarded to.
Hope this helps. Most likeley your case is forwarded to your consulate already.

Have a blast!!!!!!!!! Hope you get through alright!!! I'm pretty nervous about my POE on saturday!! eeeeeeeeeek!!!


Don't be nervous! It'll be all ok. I went through it in December while i had my NOA1 and nothing went wrong. They just ask you the basic questions, the officer was a little suspicious...he thought i came a little often to the usa;) He just asked 'do you have so many times vacation and you only visit the usa??' lol. Make sure you have something like a letter from ur work, saying they expect you back.

To Beckysharpe, we were approved 25th and yesterday my fiance called around 5 in the afternoon (his time in New Jersey) and it did take a while before he was talking to somebody, but seemed to work and they told him the case was gone to the embassy already;)

Good luck with calling and im sure you will hear good news soon!

Im so happy for you!! Congrats!! kicking.gif
Lol im still getting that Error message so prob no news;) but helps seeing all ppl from November getting approved! Good luck w/ the next steps. I think u can still go to the USA as long as you can prove enough information that you have to go back to your home country.

For the poster that asked, I am in Delaware. We received our NOA 1 and ASC Appointment Notice quickly but the biometrics are not scheduled until the end of March.

I should go back and quote that but I'm lost on the new format and I fear change. ;)

Thank you for everyone who provided answers on the drivers license question. I would call them but per past experiences phoning our lovely DMV I will get someone who doesn't know the answer to my "complicated" question and will push me off to a series of other representatives that also don't know their butt from a hole in the .... so I think we are just going to stop in and bring the proper papers with us after his biometrics appointment.

I was reading the ASC Appt Notice and something someone posted here about scratches and was curious what that is about? The notice says "open wounds or bandages/casts when you appear" but not scratches/minor injuries. In my husband's line of work he's constantly scratched, calloused, and generally rough on his hands. If he has scratches, they won't conduct biometrics? What about scratches on the backs of his hands? I think I better get him some gloves asap!
:lol:


Tunisia,

I had my bio yesterday and one of the first things you had to do was showing the inside of your hands. I do office work so no problem for me, but I imagine there are people who use there hands a little more then I do. I was one of the first onces in line so I don't know if they actually send people back when they have scratches on the inside of their hands/fingers, but you might look for some gloves for your husband :lol:

Thanks. Is there an online list of ASCs that do that? Also will this have any (bad) effect on your record?


You can look on the USCIS site where your ASC might be:
https://egov.uscis.g...office_type=ASC
At the bottom of the page you can enter your zipcode and it will show you which office you most likely have to go to. I got the same on there as on the bio letter, but you know how they are, make sure you go to the one on your bio letter if that is a different one!
