Hi, I'm a May filer....and still no NOA2...I have quit going to the May thread because everyone is in their NVC and interview process....that gets very discouraging....is there anyone else from May out there????


It have passed the 6 months time period so I think you should call them to find out what's going on. Call their RFE line. Here's the info:

1-800-375-5283

Follow these prompts:

1,2,2,4,2,1 Then enter your receipt number and press 1 to verify that it is correct. Press 1 again.

Good luck! good.gif

Interview cleared this morning!!!

She called me right when I woke up. Smooth interview in Bern, Switzerland, the officer just checked the paperworks and the new documents needed after the NOA2. He asked her to redo the passport pictures (wrong size) so she came back 1/2h later with the correct format and voilà!! the visa is in the mail!

We will get married on 12/10, the day after she flies back!!!
Now let gather everything for the AOS and reentry permit applications. When you think you're done with USCIS, you go right back at it!!!


Good luck to all,

Our interview date of December 26, 2007 just showed up on the Moscow Embassy website.

NVC receive date was Nov 1. Today is Nov 20.

Interview dates for Moscow Embassy must be assigned automatically, since we haven't received any info packet yet, let alone returned anything to them.

Are you sure it wasn't NOA2 or an RFE?

By the way, what's up with your signature? It looks like you've already gotten citizenship but here you are petioning for a K1 Visa. unsure.gif Is that citizenship timeline for yourself?



Yes I'm sure it wasn't NOA2 or RFE. It was a receipt of my petition, but had a date much later than what the website claimed. As for the citizenship timeline, I entered it in for my own reference since the information was available.
MR2niceMaleVietnam (no flag)2007-10-02 18:45:00
K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA1 Notice Date
Earlier in the week I sent USCIS an email regarding the fact that I haven't received the NOA1. Today it finally came, but on the receipt it says that the Notice Date was 07-17-2007. From the website it said that they received my petition on 05-29-07 and that a notice have been sent out. So what does this really mean? That my NOA1 was 07-17 instead of 05-29? This would be a month and a half setback if they go by what's on the notice. :o

I've just received a Hard Copy of NOA2 today in the mail. I've been calling them on a monthly basis using the RFE trick starting in August and you could see the resulted touches in my signature below. These touches only occurred after I made the calls, with the most recent on 09/28. I didn't get an email approval so that's why I'm a little shock that it just came home. It's still a ways to go but I am happy that another step have been completed. Thank you everyone for your support and I'm sure your turn is around the corner when you least expected. good.gif

I update mine as soon as I get any kind of updates from USCIS. As you can see from my signature they sent me 2 NOA2 hard copies. If in fact they worked on my case twice I am really disappointed in them because obviously that time could have been used to work on another petition. I don't know what they are doing. mad.gif

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNOA2 case being forwarded directly to Embassy
Hello Everyone,

I'm sure most of us May Filers are waiting for our approved cases to be sent to the NVC so that a case number will be assigned and be then forwarded to the Embassy to where our Fiance(e) resides. I'm a little over 30 days now and NVC has not received my case and after reading that some cases were either being duplicated, lost, or put on storage it got me very worried. Last week I have mailed a copy of my NOA2 to NVC in hope that they can inquire the USCIS about my case.

I just got off the phone with USCIS and spoke to a very nice lady. She had told me that in my case my approved petition was forwarded directly to my Fiancee's Consulate in Vietnam. I asked her if she knew the date that it was sent out and she said from the system she can only tell that it was mailed directly to the Consulate instead of the NVC. If this is true, I will contact my Fiancee to ask her to go to the Embassy and pick up Packet 3.

I don't know if this is the case for everyone but if the NVC did not receive your case after the 3 weeks mark of approval then it wouldn't hurt to contact your Fiance(e) and ask them to call the Consulate from their country to check and see if it was sent directly there instead.

Just wanted to update everyone I learned this morning. At this point it doesn't hurt to ask our Fiance(e) to check. I'll keep everyone posted.

Good Luck! good.gif

This is the first time I hear of the USCIS sending cases directly.. and I'd be kinda doubtful about the info. this lady gave you... I thought the process for every case is to go through the NVC and then to the Embassy.

Why don't you ask your fiance to call the Embassy and re-check the info. they gave you? It wont be easy for her just to show up at the Embassy and ask for Packet 3. Maybe she can call them or email them.

Good luck!



I think there was another VJ member that have posted this same scenario, in that his/her petition was also mailed directly to the Consulate. But I agree with you in that I thought this was a standard procedure that the approved petition has to be sent to the NVC first so that it can be assigned a case #. I will find out tomorrow.

What does your NOA2 that you received in the mail say? Did it say cases are being forwarded to the consulate(directly) or the NVC?

http://travel.state...._3180.html#case ...

has anyone tried to send their NOA2 to NVC directly and get a case number assigned?



I am absolutely 100% sure that my letter says that my case have been sent to the NVC and that any further contact from this point on will have to go through them. I've read that letter many many times. laughing.gif But I will check again tonight. I can only hope that what the lady said was correct. I will find out soon enough (tomorrow) because I've asked my fiancee to go to the Embassy to check. Will keep everyone posted.

You need to get a Receipt Number from USCIS. If you received the NOA1 letter, look for the Receipt Number. It starts out something like WACxxxxxxxxxx. Then you go here: https://egov.uscis.g.../jsps/login.jsp
to register. Then you add your case to your Portfolio so that you can follow-up on the status. When your case gets updated with a new date from the last time you saw it, that considered as a "Touched." Hope that helps.
