I tried to check my case status @
http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis
My application number is NBC*00008xxxx
When I enter all the 13 digit it gives the following error message
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Validation Error(s)
You must correct the following error(s) before proceeding:
* Your case can not be found at this time in Case Status Online. Please check your receipt number and try again. If you need further assistance please call the National Customer Service Center at 1.800.375.5283.
To view the status of a case, please enter the corresponding application receipt number. The 13-character application receipt number can be found on application notices you have received from the USCIS. It begins with three letters such as (EAC, WAC, LIN, or SRC). Dashes ("-") should be omitted when entering a receipt number. However, all other characters, including asterisks ("*"), can be included if listed on your notice as part of the receipt number. See the FAQs for additional information on this system. "

Now NBC is not even listed here. Am I checking at incorrect location?
Thanks
