congrats to all approvals and good luck to all awaiting interview! I finally received NOA2 approval April 18th by email....

Out of curiosity....how many are waiting still for cases to reach NVC? I've been reading that the forwarding process from CSC has come to a grinding halt for those receiving NOA2 in late March and through April......

Congrats on your NOA2, deb! We waited 2 weeks for our case to reach NVC, but we got our NOA2 on 3/10 so I don't know about the later dates. I hope yours reaches NVC soon!!!

Congratulations to all who just got interview dates!

Debblyn, congrats on the NOA2. It was taking about 1 to 2-1/2 weeks for petitions to get from CSC to NVC. If it has slowed down beyond that, I'm not sure by how much. The hard copy of the NOA2 will tell you to call NVC if you don't get the letter from then within 30 days of the NOA2 date, and for some people (like me) NVC processing can take close to a week, so I would expect it to get there at least within 3 weeks. I would also expect it to take at least a week from whenever you get your last touch on the USCIS site (some people get touches after their NOA2, others do not).

Quite a few of us are at 3-4 weeks and counting. Not, to get you down, but I thought that you should know. They don't have a record of us yet. We were approved March 27.
