I was wondering if anyone knows how long it takes from the NOA2 approval date with USCIS to send the case to the NVC? Also, how long does NVC process take to send the file to the US Embassy? It's been 2 weeks since my approval and NVC still says my file is not yet recieved.

It took 17 days for mine to make it to NVC and now it has been another 18 days that it has been sitting there. In my conversation with NVC yesterday I was told it was in the mailroom waiting to be dispatched to the Embassy and it takes "2-4 weeks" to do so. So much for the letter saying "within a week we will forward this petition to the Embassy"
