Does anyone know what the average time is for the "administrative processing" step at the NVC take? I have a Filipina K-1 petition approved by the USCIS (California) back in Dec. NVC has had the approved petition since mid-Dec 08. The little bit of information I got out from the NVC operators was that my petition was with "other agencies" undergoing some additional security checks??? Has anybody had some similar problems with NVC?

Anything can cause this. It is very common. We were held up for 3 weeks...nothing at all in either of our pasts. It's just part of the process.
