In most cases, the petitioner is always praying he or she has made no mistakes to speed up the process. However, the NVC made 3 of their own in our case and it cost us an extra month plus. 1. Shortly after the I-130 was approved, a 6 month wait usually, NVC had on their records my wife was from INDIA..hard to believe since they just approved her from PHILIPPINES..this took a call to NVC and they had to pull our file to correct their mistake..this took 3 weeks. 2. NVC lost my 70 dollar payment for the 864 aos..this took 10 days for them to find..3. NVC misplaced my whole ds-230 packet and this was another couple weeks....So if any of these things happen to you..don't feel you are the only one. I will always be grateful my wife was approved..and I have no real hard feelings towards NVC..just seems at times NVC is a bit un-organized as they process peoples lives...I wonder if eventually NVC will have a more efficient system...because after all..life is short ;)

once you find her..never let her go

Sorry to hear about your case, but I do think that NVC is very professional 99% of the times, infact I give them more ratings that USCIS and other government agencies.

Delays do take a lot of patience. But on the positive side, your interview is scheduled less than ten months from the start of your visa process. This is fast even with the delays. :thumbs:
