Once your checklist for DS230 is received and we hear that NVC has it in system.......what is the average time for case to be complete ( IF NO RFE??)

On the automated system, it says "allow 6-8 weeks" , but I have seen many get "Case Complete" like in a few days!!

Anxiously waiting ...... :whistle:

For us took one week, lately cases have been complete in a few days.

Good Luck!

Exactly, NVC is giving "Case Complete" realy fast! I've seen some cases taking even a day to be completed, others taking weeks, but in those cases I believe it's because they might have taken a RFE, but most of them are taking just a few days. Mine entered into their system on May 09th and I got my case completed on May 14th, just after 3 business days.

Why don't you keep an eye on this link and keep checking updates being added every day, I would suggest you to add yourself on the list which is for the ones who got their cases entered and completed within April and May, and there's also a space for the interview date to be added when you get one. This is a very easy way to keep tracking of all cases being processed and their time frames. :thumbs:

Our DS-230 was entered into the system on May 15th. My husband called to check the status and they said to call again next week. :(

I guess we're looking at a July interview maybe. Was hoping for a June date. Oh well.

Hi vj_nvc_user,

I heard the automated system this morning. I can't believe that it was updated so soon, but it was wonderful news to hear.

Wishing you the very best and I hope you talk to an operator and they tell you case complete!!!
