Email about it and then continue calling in. It's all you can do, if weeks of calling and an email in October are fruitless by the time you move you'll at least know you did everything you could.

Oops, BC.

I haven't noticed anyone posting a BC timeline recently so can't give you details on BC. But maybe the delay is either because you screwed something up on your application by accident, or did you answer yes to any of the "Personal History" questions?

You made the classic mistake of calling before lunch. They will start taking calls again at around 12:30
