TSC delay after approval

[Love4ver 0]

Now I'm getting concerned and freaking out. We received our NOA2 Sept 21. I called NVC, they never receive any file from USCIS on our behalf and said it can be 3 months wait to arrive at NVC!!!! The NOA2 Notice had a Valid from date 09/21/06 to 01/20/2007 The 3 months would delay or cut 3/4 of the validity time! I thought we were done with TSC ignorance.

Don't worry. NVC has been slower than usual lately. The NOA2 expiration date can be extended by the consulate by another 4 months. Each Consulate handles it differently, but the extension is easily obtained if you need it. You may still be okay.

1) The service centers sends stuff to the NVC in batches. It could be a month (but usually two to three weeks) before your I-129F gets there...

2) The petition expiry date can be extended by the consulate if you are actively pursuing the case...

So relax.. the gears are turning.. you're dealing with a huge lumbering bureaucracy.. you'll get a lot farther if you just sit back, relax and let the process move at it's own glacial pace...

Thanx I was wondering why it took so long!! My case was approved on Sept 26..........All they need to do is send it to NVC.......I wonder how slow its been going!! I'm just so anxious....knowing that they send packages in batches makes me a lil more calm!!

I just looked on the VJ database for the 40 most recent "NVC left" dates for NOA2's from CSC (including TSC and NSC). All left less than a month after CSC's NOA2 date. except for one that was 1 month, 1 day. While this delay is frustrating and unnecessary , it won't last forever.
