Anyone Else Get Their P3

[aquach]

So I was just wondering has anyone who received NVC case number around 2/23 and was shipped from NVC to GUZ in the first 2 weeks of March received their P3 yet? I was hoping that we would get our P3 in mid April but who knows.

 

It seems that people who got NVC approval around mid February already have their P3 sent to their SO's. Oh to see when your case was assigned a case number you just look at your case number and after 2005 there is a 3 digit code beginning with 500. Mine was 553 so it was the 53rd day of the year which was February 23.

 

Thanks to anyone who responds. I am trying to time it and my SO travels a lot so I am hoping that while she is home she will recieve the P3 or at least try to get her to be home around that time.

I'm not in the exact window of time you asking for, but just prior to it.. I know of about four (including myself) who all had NOA2 dates of Jan. 31-Feb2... and all of us got their P3 about 3/1. So, maybe count on at least 30+ days from your NOA2 date.

I am in the same boat as David and Zixuan are, same days and timeframe. We both got our P3s the same day. Come on GZ, get to work. Do not worry Aquach, yours should be there very soon.

Got P3 around the 12th or so of March. Got NOA date of Feb 18

For CR1 it's 6 to 8 weeks from the time you pay for the DS230 app until you reveive it back so you can fill it out. Think they need to hire more dudes in the mail room to stuff envelopes and lick stamps. That's just plain lazy. It's not even like they need to wait for the check to clear, it's certified.

[nygatl15]

I think I'm in your time period.... look at my timeline... 2/23

Mengxin ... our timelines are fairly close. Did you ever file for a K3?

[eeyore]

Still waiting for p3 either CR1 or K3.

We got our today. Our case got assigned a GUZ number and forwarded to GZ on 3/7. Refer to the time line below...

[aquach]

Yes ... She got it today. What a relief now all we have to do is fill it out and send it back in really soon.

Where is ours . On april 1st I recieved NOA2 from NVC with approval notice valid from 0205 to 0605. Included In the envelope was a letter from NVC dated March 10, 2005. Stating : that within one week, our approved 129f would be forwarded to guangzhou. The letter also contained the GUZ case number. with date of 2005566XXX.

 

My question is: within one week of WHEN? feb 16th or march 10th????

I emailed GUZ april 12th asking if they had recieved our 129f and if they had send my SO her p3 packet. Thier reply was fast! Same day. It said, Dear Mr. D,

This office has not received the referenced file from the National Visa

Center. Normally, from the date NVC sends out the file it takes

approximately two months to reach our office. Blah blah blah about how they are doing a wonderful job for us and dont bother them repeatedly with emails cause thier busy . This was my first email to them

 

Grumble grumble, sorry just venting.

Meiandmark,

 

Looking at some timelines (including my own), it takes about two full months from the NOA2 date... so you look to be a few more weeks to wait...

We got ours yesterday & she has completed it & sent it back today.

 

See time line.
