Tracking:
No use calling the embassy. They never pick up the phone. (If they do, they you’re lucky. Buy a lottery ticket). Other ways to track , is the USPS tracking number. Sometimes the Embassy stays closed during Bangladeshi holidays such as Durga puja etc. USPS will fail to delivery, you’ll have to tell them to re-delivery. This can be easily done online. But keep tracking for updates.
Then there is a Western Union money order hotline number where you’ll be able to know whether your money order has been cashed or not. If so, you can be sure that you’re papers are ok and the process has started. Start counting 30 days from then. Sometimes it won’t take that long even for ordinary delivery.
