ORIGINAL POSTER
Got my approval of DTV work from New York consulate today.

Filed on Jan 8th and status changed to pending approval the next day. Contacted the consulate 3 weeks ago. I was told that because of the planned the departure day is end of March they won’t process the final approval till mid-March. The consulate staff was very nice and patient. Just as she said, it has been approved.

I applied Feb 12 I was informed I was pending but approved. I didn't put a departure date and they stopped responding on messenger. Any advice?
