ps: this is the only time I was lucky when compared to LC,140 etc.

All the best for rest of the guys.
 
Congrats....

Sri-IL,

Congratulations on your P3 review completion. Let see how much time does NVC really take to forward the case to US Consulates. I guess you are a Chennai or Mumbai candidate.

Thanks & Good Luck.

I-140 approved on 9 Jan, case not created at NVC

My I -140 was approved 9 Jan 03, I am checking NVC automated voice response entering my EAC number but till today I am getting a message no records found.

My INS center was VSC, is anybody have faced somilar situation? What should I do?

Thanks
 
It may take some time to get through, but try and talk to an
operator at NVC. If they confirm what the system says, then
try to contact INS through your Attorney.

Check encashment

Normally 15 to 20 days.

In my case it took 22 days from the day they received it.

NVC check cleared?

Hi, I wanted to know how do you confirm that the cahiers check that you send to "Dept of States" ($335) has been cleared by NVC?

Also, can I get my case details from NVC over the phone if I only know my case number a BMB-XXXX .. number? I do not have I-140 Receipt number as my company / attorney has not disclosed that to me.

Thanks,

One easy way is to check with your bank whether your (Cashier's) check has been cleared.

The other alternative is to call NVC to check on the status which would let you know if the bill has been received.




Also, can I get my case details from NVC over the phone if I only know my case number a BMB-XXXX .. number? I do not have I-140 Receipt number as my company / attorney has not disclosed that to me.



Either your INS Receipt # (I-140) or your NVC Case # is enough to check on your case.


Thanks,

Hope this helps.
 
NVC St. Louis PO Box belongs to US BANK?

Guys,

I had sent the fee bill to NVC through express mail. The recipt says that it was received by Mr. xxxx at US BANK. The zip code is the same as the National Visa Center St. Louis.

Let me check 2 things with people who have already sent their fee bill to NVC St. Louis.

1. The address: Is this is address correct?
National Visa Center
PO Box 952201
St. Louis, MO 63195-2201

2. Delivery Confirmation: If you had been tracking the delivery did you something like this?

Your item was delivered at 11:30 am on February 19, 2003 in SAINT LOUIS, MO 63195 to US BANK 63195. The item was signed for by Mr. xxxxx.

I called up the post office (from where I had sent the documents) just now. They had called up the office out there at St. Louis and said that usually papers for passport/Visa would be delivered to a post box (often called as a collection box). The mails usually would be handled by the bank where the INS/NVC holds an account. The bank gets the mail and deposits the check and forwards the paper work to NVC/INS.

Was this the case with guys who have already sent in their fee bill for NVC? If it's not the case I'll have to call up my post office to do corrective measures.

Replies are appreciated very much. Thanks.

I already had posted this message in another thread (http://boards.immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=74550 ). Sorry to repost it again here.

bvganesh,

dont worry too much and dont take any hasty actions. The info what you got is great for other cpers( i THINK NOBODY KNOWS HOW IT WORKD TILL NOW). But, It should be the same method WHAT YOU SAID USED BY Nvc. WAIT TILL 15 BUSINESS DAYS FOR YOUR CHECK COLLECTION. iF IT IS NOT HAPPENING, THEN CALL NVC...


ONCE AGAIN, DONT BE HASTE. THEY HAVE A SYSTEMS IN PLACE. LET THE SYSTEM DO THE WORK.

Thanks Sri-IL,

I am not planning to take any action for now. I had lost the NVC Bill in mail twice before. So, I am getting used to the USPS these days.

Just being curious, did you send you fee bill to NVC (St. Louis) via USPS? (express mail in perticular). If you how were you tracking? If not how did you send your fee bill?

Thanks for the update though.

After tracking the mail, I was surprised to see that the mail was delievered to US Bank instead of National Visa Center. Hence I called up the post office to verify the same. That's how I got the info I had posted earlier. If that's the way things are supposedly done then my posting eliminates one possible 'heart-beat-skip' for other CPers.

Cheers,
Ganesh.
 
bvganesh,

What you are seeing is exactly right.

The cover containing the fee is actually collected by the bankers from the St.Louis main post office. The banker intimates the NVC after they encash the instrument.

You are forced to use USPS because this is a PO Box.
