:thumbs::thumbs: CONGRATULATIONS!

I've heard that VSC is the fastest one,we'll see.My husband also filed there so I hope ours gets approved soon as well.

Do you know what happens with the I-129F petition after you send it to Chicago?I thought they transfer it to the local SC-in our case -VSC,but in the K3 flowcart of this webpage it states that from Chicago they transfer it to the National Benefits Center in Missouri-and then what?I don't understand which one is correct?

Also,did you need to send evidence of your relationship and ongoing marriage in the I129F package as well? :blink:

My 129F went from Chicago to Missouri and then was transferred to Vermont where it was approved. As I understand it all petitons are sent directly to Chicago from Missouri and later MIssori will send it to CSC or VSC depending on where you live in the country.

As for proof of relationship and ongoing marriage, I only sent a copy of my marriage certificate. I guess it wasnt a problem since I was approved in only 34 days.

Now I'm on to the NVC. Does anyone know how long before I can expect the consulate to have my petition?

First of all congrats.

Second when did you file for 129F?

My 129F was filed on 1-11-07 and approved on 2-15-07.

As far as I know it shouldn't take more than a week or 10 days to go through the NVC

Depending on which Service Center you're going through. VSC seems to be getting the petitions to the NVC quicker than the CSC. Ours was approved on 2/6 and we're still waiting for the NVC to get it. You're right though, from other timelines the NVC gets it on to the foreign consulate/embassy pretty quickly.

:thumbs::) GO NVC! :):thumbs:

VSC seems to ship to NVC daily. Mine was forwarded to them within a couple of days and only stayed a day at NVC. CSC ships in bulk weekly it seems. Hopefully yours will get to NVC soon!

I Emailed the NVC but it bounced back saying the mailbox is full. I sent it in HTML form so maybe they only like plain text? I called them NVC last night instead and we're there! Our petition arrived on 2/15 and I got our MNL case number. Next up, Manila! :dance:
