nope there is no way to find the current month on that dashboard, but it will give you a feeling of how much volume is being processed.

i was friendly, polite and as funny as possible with my appointment, and the guy there was very forward in offering information.. so like i said, go to the appointment, and if you are like me, i am only waiting two weeks till i schedule another one, knowing the availability is about two weeks out to see them

Ahh ok. I thought there was some special way to read these graphs and I could not grasp how. :lol: Yes my appointment is about 2 weeks out. So do you think the Dallas office is loaded down?

i think it is really hard to tell about your local office ... how many people are assigned to adjudicate and how fast they are etc.. i like to see the approvals outpacing the receipts which looks like it is starting to happen at yours.. good luck at your infopass

I would call them again.

Our cases werent available online either but became so as soon as we were approved. Have you still not received an email confirmation? Did you receive your NOA1 by email?

The IIN number, as far as I understand, is the number which enables you tonpay the fees online.

And guess what, I haven't received my case number nor IIN yet, as there is now a delay for NVC to enter the cases into their system! :unsure:

okay I just checked my online status (which has never been available) and it said our case was approved. so we're happy about that! Have you called NVC? when would you suggest we start calling?

My Priority Date is Feb 07. Should I bug them now ?

MSC case.

I would say yeah definitely call just to see where you are at. Although, they might not be able to give you info but just keep calling (my opinion)especially if you've filed from abroad. Did you file from the US or abroad?

Phew! Glad you get to see the cases approved onlineq. :D

I would say wait about 10 days from your NOA2 and check if, first of all, they've received the applications from the USCIS. I've seen several instances here on VJ where some applications get mis-shipped between USCIS and NVC. I don't want to scare you but it s always good to check.

I called Monday and was told the applications were received but not yet reviwed. As per my calculations, people with an NOA2 from 03/26 are getting their case numbers right now so I'll wait til Monday to bug them again.

Approved today. Now on to the visa.

Congratulations!! :thumbs:
