What 800 #? If its the main 800 number i don't think they would give any information other then what the online status says. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I called Garden City already and they told me to come into the office to fill out an inquiry form. I went in and filled out the form. When I went there there were two male officers assisting people, one hispanic and one african american. The hispanic officer was very nice, gave me the blank form and said "After you bring me back the form already filled out, I'll answer any question you might have" [I know he probably meant any questions within his capabilities. When I went back, the african american guy was there [I couldn't wait for the other gentleman to come back because I had to get to work] and he was very dry saying that all he can do is take my request and send it to the officer. I managed to ask him, how long does it normally take for the officer or someone to respond my inquiry and he said most of the time at least THREE MONTHS.
If you go, avoid the african american officer, wait for the hispanic if you have time. I went on a Thursday.
I would ignore the 90 day and try to find something out before that. A week after I visited Garden City, I spoke to my officer on the phone [which was more than a month after my interview] and the officer told me he approved me [This was me calling, not him responding to my inquiry, I think the inquiry doesn't do anything] and forward my file to the National Visa Center.
Good Luck and keep us posted.
