If you want to read something nuts then read this: 56 days since NOA2 and the casefile has not yet arrived to NVC from USCIS in California (according to all the NVC Operators). Isn't that insane? :girlwerewolf2xn:

Note: This is not my case but a friend's case :wow:

Is it a trend that the case numbers are getting forever to be generated by NVC?

Oh my, I wanted to call to check my case, but I just got approved 2 weeks ago and I keep seeing guys with approval from April that didnt receive it yet.

Then I feel so hopeless =(

This is normal right? It usually takes 30 days by now? Any one knows?

So I dont get worried and I just wait more, LOL

thanks
