My case is at the NVC since April 27 and I am close to receiving IV bill. However, my wife is still in the process of getting her passport. Is her passport required before the interview? I have read somewhere that I need to send a copy of the biographic page of passport to the NVC with the DS-230. Is this true? Thanks in advance

Yes, for India, you need to send the DS 230 part I and the copy of the visa applicant's passport biographic pages.

I-130 Timeline with USCIS:

It took 92 days for I-130 to get approved from the filing date

NVC Process of I-130:

It took 78 days to complete the NVC process

Interview Process at The U.S. Embassy

Interview took 223 days from the I-130 filing date. Immigrant Visa was issued right after the interview
