Pete Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 What's the current wait time from NVC to GUZ embassy receiving your file? We were told our file has left NVC since Nov 5th. But GUZ still hasn't received our file when I called the DOS last week! Other than calling DOS, is there any way you can track your file online somewhere? Link to comment

There are many threads on this hot topic, Pete?? This one is more NVC but also talks about the NVC to GZU time frame! http://candleforlove.com/forums/index.php?...c=29278&hl= NVC to GZU has been around 3 months or so as of late!! So that puts you at around the end of February with the "big holiday" coming up!! Link to comment

dnoblett Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I used the VJ timelines, and NVC to GUZ is consistently 3 months or so. http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/k1list...na&dfile=No You can add to VJ's timeline data by following this link: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/intro.php?cfl=1 Link to comment

We were told our file has left NVC since Nov 5th. But GUZ still hasn't received our file when I called the DOS last week! Other than calling DOS, is there any way you can track your file online somewhere? Pete I would think your petition should be received and opened very soon, maybe1-2 weeks. Good luck Edited January 25, 2008 by Rob & Jin (see edit history) Link to comment

Other than calling DOS, is there any way you can track your file online somewhere?Calling DOS is the best way to track your process IMHO. Ask DOS to see when is the last time they got the update for your case. They answer your question according to the computer screen so it's important to ask them to find out how recent is the information they gave you. Good luck. Best wishes, Gino & Lulu Link to comment

Btw, is the US embassy get the whole week off for the chinese new year next month? Pete Link to comment

Guest hi5pro Posted January 25, 2008 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 they get their info updated daily. Are you kidding me??? . I remember one time calling DOS to check our P3 and the lady told me last computer update for our case is 21 days ago. I used to call EVERYDAY until my blood pressure going through the roof. Be prepared for all kinds of conflict answers from them and it is NORMAL!! With all these problems with DOS, believe me, they are still the BEST place to call. Good luck.

Best wishes, Gino & Lulu March interview i think I agree with that assessment Rob !! B) After all, Mark's file left the NVC for GUZ in late September, four months ago, and he is through the P-3 process; so I, too, think it will be a March interview. That will be eleven months since his initial filing. I am still hoping for a mid-May interview, based on all I see. That would also be my eleven month mark, since initial filing; however, there is the big holiday in May. Link to comment
