When the USCIS says wait 30 days til' the case arrives at the NVC, are we figuring 30 business days? Let's be honest, 8 days in a month adds up when you have waited this long as we all know. We are just trying to come up with some what of a time line that is affecting our employment situation. Anyone know if they process on weekends?

I'm in the same boat with you guys seems we were both approved with in a few days of each other. I figured we don't count weekends because we have no idea if the NVC works on the weekends. So I have just been counting days since Sept 18th.

You are not to count weekends or holidays when you are trying to keep up with the alloted times. Good luck.
