This is great, we are all here. I was approved on Thursday and got the approval on Firday.

NVC is kind of slow these days I guess because of many applicant just got to NVC processing.

So for COA email, we have to wait till the form is being generated or we can do it earlier?

So far the NVC hasn't received my case which was approved on 8/13. Been calling every day to check.

My case was approved on the 15th, NVC still has no record of my case which is fine with me cause it gives me time to prepare the next few packets.

You have both been added to the spreadsheet. Hyro, I have to say...your approval is by far the fastest I've ever seen. That's just CRAZY! :blink:
