A quick question, Once you send missing docs to NVC in response to a RFE, does NVC take 2-4 weeks again to review and complete the case?

Thanks for your inputs

Shamim

Yes, that would be the usual time range. Did you get an RFE? If yes, what is about? Also what did you find out from US Embassy regarding to submit DS 230 packet (submit both parts) along with birth certificate, marriage certificate to NV or not?

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

Embassy just avoided my question and asked my to contact NVC as my case was with NVC. I talked to 4 different reps at NVC and they all confirmed that I did not have to send DS230-II and other docs, so I did not send them.Now NVC mailed me a checklist for those missing doc. The rule has been changes as of Jan 01, 2008. When I asked why they did not tell me before when I called them about this issue, her innocent answer was "we did not know"....WOW!!

Gosh, it is frustrating. So now they are asking you to send DS 230 part II, her birth certificate, your marriage certificate, etc? Just send them away. Hang in there for little longer. I would email NVC and explain them that now your case is being prolonged for their fault.

If the NVC can complete my case by end of this month, can I expect the interview in 2nd week of March?

If you don't mind, would you please post the details for the official checklist of required documents to be sent to NVC for DS-230? I and others would certainly appreciate the info for future preparation.

I thought these documents only needed to present during the interview phase later on. Thanks for the much needed info since it'll take time to retrieve these documents requiring for DS-230 submission.
