W & D Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) 3 Months and NO P3DOS says that Guangzhou has not received the package. I just sent a letter to my Senator requesting help. Edited August 14, 2008 by W & D (see edit history) Link to comment
Guest Rob & Jin Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) your timeline confuses me (easy to do) What visa did you file for K-1, I'm guessing and when are the dates on the papers NOA-1, NOA-2, NVC in and out ? can you clean up your timeline please its upsidedown and says GUZ just got your petition. Loaded (electronic copy) or open (paper copy) It can take up to 4 months for the paper file to be "opened" by GUZ from sending from NVC If GUZ has your paper copy then your P-3 will be generated and sent almost the same day. Call DOS 202-663-1225+1+0, you will get the scoop if its already sent. good luck Edited August 14, 2008 by Rob & Jin (see edit history) Link to comment
W & D Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 It shows "08-01-08 Consulate received package." in your signature. Doesn't that means GUZ received your package? That is only if we had the correct numbers for DHL. The consulate has not checked in the package. They only have the electronic notice. Link to comment
dnoblett Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 This is normal. Our case left USCIS NOA2 8/29/06Spent about a month at NVC and was sent on to consulate 9/18/06Consulate "Received" it 11/30/06 and sent out packet 3. The consulate puts the petition into a warehouse and wont indicate they received until they are ready to process it. GUZ always takes about 3 months to do this. http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profil...=1&id=24665 Link to comment

GUZ always indicate case file not received until they pull it from the warehouse. It gets sent from NVC and arrives in China a few days later only to be put into storage. What many do is to prepare OF-169, and DS-230 part 1 before getting P3, and as soon as DOS indicates P3 sent, then send the prepared forms to the consulate slightly before getting P3 in the mail. Start calling visa svc around 90 days after NVC sends case to GUZ and as soon as they say P3 sent then send OF-169/DS-230 pt1 to GUZ http://travel.state.gov/about/info/info_308.html#visa OF-169: http://guangzhou.usembassy-china.org.cn/up...ts_-_OF-169.pdfDS-230 Pt1 http://www.state.gov/documents/organization/81807.pdf Send to: United States Consulate GuangzhouIV Unit1 Shamian South StreetGuangzhou, 510133 PRC Link to comment
LeeFisher3 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I don't see the point of jumping up and down screaming, 3 months between NVC and GZ is pretty common. Link to comment
