Called today. My case is completed!!! Unfortunately my category retrogressed for July and now I need to wait for September, so they can schedule me interview in October.

I sent the IV package on June 14th, was at NVC on June 15th and today the case was complete. 1 week exactly.

Saylin, thank you so much!

Wait, what?? I am also confused about what you mean with your case was "retrogressed"....your case is complete and the interview will in OCTOBER? Oh that makes me nervous, that's so late!!!

They're not applying for an IR-1/CR-1 case where visas are unlimited per year. They're applying for an employment-based green card in which there are a LIMITED number per year, so they have priority dates and such and have to worry about retrogression. Nothing anyone else in this thread has to worry about.

Hahaha, thanks, PHEW! I sort of just assumed everyone in this thread was doing the CR1/IR1, so I was a bit puzzled. Saylin, on average between a case closed and interview date....how long is it usually? About 2 months?

Thanks!

Quick question. I'm filling out my AOS and on question 25 I have transcripts from the IRS for 2011, 2010, and 2009. Should I check the first box and fill out that section and also check the second box? The first box says I have attached the required photocopy or transcript of my federal tax return for only the most recent tax year. (Not true, I have all 3). HELP

Some other people sneak in ;) Like in their case as their process is nearly the same for the NVC stage.

And yes, I've noticed the general average is 2 months.

If you're planning on sending all three year's of tax transcripts, then check BOTH boxes on that question. That's what we did :)

@saylin: Ooooouch! I selected 1st checkbox but not the 2nd checkbox. Though I have added 2011, 2010, 2009 IRS Tax Transcripts and I have also mentioned this in my cover letter. Is there a possibility that NVC may issue a checklist for this mistake?

Anything is possible with NVC. It depends on the reviewing officer.

Thanks! I guess it should be fine because 2nd checkbox is optional :)

Thanks! I will take "Anything" as they will accept it ;)
