Yes, it does pay-off, just when I decided to relax and take it easy. I called Qisheng while he was having breakfast and he was thrilled, he was beginning to get a little pesimistic about the whole thing. I know we still have a long road to walk, but we're closer to the finish line, right? I hope that all of you awaiting your P-4's can give us some good news in the following days.

Now, what follows? I know the case will be forwarded to NH for name screening, how do I know the status of it from now on? When will a GZ number be assigned to it? How will I know that it has been finally forwarded to GZ and the DHL tracking number?

Congrats on the progress of your paperwork and good luck in the ongoing process.

Thanks Don, you bring the wisdom and serenity to all of us here. Where should I call for the GZ number, NVC still?

Congratulations, Mari!!!!

 

Less then 60 days, it is a shame all the centers are not like Vermont. I know I will be anxouis to hear about your progress all the way, because I hope to be a couple of months behind your progress.

OK Mari,

 

reat news! Now a slight wrinkle --- some times the NVC doesn't log in your IRS # --- so they tell you on the automated system, and even when you talk to a representive that:

 

"we have no record of your file" ---if that happens, (and I don't know how frequently it might, ask to speak with a supervisor -- and if that doesn't work, call your Congressman's office as we had to ---- who then checked, and but as it turned out, they had it alll along!)

Congratulations Mari!!!!!! Now things happen fast until P-4 then it will be the longest few weeks of your life lol. It took about 2 weeks for our case to be assigned a GUZ # after NOA-2. The phone number over at NVC is 603 334 0700. Your case should clear NVC in 4 weeks or less. After that it takes about 2 months to get P-3. Many of the guys track thier pettions by DHL. I didn't bother since all it will tell you is when a package that left NVC arrives at the consulate not your specific package. At the weekly info sesson in GZ the consular official said the reason it takes so long for P-3 is the package has to clear Chinese customs. Why it isnt in a diplomatic pouch is beyond me. If your timeline mirrors ours you should have interview in about 5 months. Good luck!

Mari,

 

The NVC number should be on your reciept (which will arrive in about a week or so).

 

A year ago, it was: (603) 334-0700

 

There is an automated system, but K1 and K3 applicants must talk to a live person (at least that was how it was a year ago).
