Could anybody help me?!! :(

I've received my NOA2 on Jan. 7 from TSC but up to now my documents haven't received by NVC!!! I've send couple of emails to nvcresearch@state.gov but still nothing has happened!!!

What should I do? How long would it take to pass this stage?

Is there anything that I could do to make my process (now or in future) move faster?

I thought the whole process would take up to a year but it seems that a lot more remains :( :( :(

Unfortunately, TSC has messed up on a lot of approvals. You should follow this thread: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/295136-california-to-texas-texas-to-california-part-2/ Your case is probably still sitting at TSC and hasn't been shipped yet.

Read the thread I linked you. There's some useful info in there. Perhaps emailing Angela Barrows or David Badger might help to locate if your case is still at TSC or has been shipped yet, most likely the former.
