Well I do not see your timeline or which visa center. So it is hard to know. My case took 19 business days from CSC to NVc. About 25 working days. Please note CSC will take around 4 weeks. VSC and TSC are taking around 2 weeks. It depends on where your processing was to know the times. There are a lot of holes here and hard to fill in without knowing things.

No timeline, No idea when approved for NOA2, No idea which center, No idea which type of visa, No idea which country coming from. From other posts I can gather things, but it is hard overall to offer advice when there are a lot of unknowns. we can just tell you:

1)if CSC, at about 4 to 5 weeks the NVC should start processing the application.

2) if VSC about 2 weeks.

3) like everyone has said, call and talk to operator (press 1 for english, then 2 for K visas, or other types of special visas.)

4) track the entries in the full stats page. watch for others being processed in NVC ahead of you. This helped me tremendously. Just sort by NOA2 approvals for your Service center.

Best of luck and be patient. Once the application is in the NVC hands, things start moving.

Okay so good news, called them and it's already been forwarded to the consulate in Sydney! Yay! Also I went through VSC.

If you case was processed at CSC your in for a good wait.

Okay so I just contacted the Sydney consulate and went through all the stuff they ask you and eventually get to the fact that you have to call another number. When I called that number they told me they didn't deal with Visas only with non immigration stuff. Now I'm confused because I've been told to contact them about it but apparently I can't. Anyone have any idea?

It took 8 days for NVC to receive our casr after NOA2. Really fast. Don't be jealous of me though...it took almost ten months to get NOA2. It is nice to finally see things moving..the universe is rewarding us for our patience.

Nah, not necessarily. It takes up to 7-8 days usually. But it can take more, that's also true. Mine took a week and a half as far as I remember.

There's another thing that seems to be happening: if the case got to them recently, they won't have it in their system. That doesn't mean USCIS hasn't forwarded the petition. It's waiting to be logged in.

Omg... I know you! You filed a month after me. I can't believe it took them so long to give you the approval. :| I guess having waited for 6 months means nothing compared to what you've been through. Glad it's over now!

Yes, it's fine to give them a week before calling.
