We got our NOA2 notice on May 20th and NVC still hasn't received out application but my situation is probably out of the norm. NVC asked me to wait 15 business days and call back, which I did, they then requested to email their NVCRequest email with my I-797 form, which I have 3 weeks ago without any response. Im checking on a daily basis with NVC and calling USCIS is probably the most useless thing to do in the world. All they respond by is scripted responses which dont answer the question I asked of WHO LONG WILL THIS TAKE?

So today, I was finally able to talk to tier-2 rep (after literally a 2 hour hold...literally, listening to their old ### renaissance era hold music), and was able to put in a "service request", which if I know USCIS as much as I do now, nothing will come out of it, and no response will be given to me. The tier-2 operator said to wait "about 2 weeks" and if I dont receive a response, then to call them back.

I've just contacted the senator's office and my house of rep's office to assist me, so hopefully something can come out of this.

All I can tell you is to please keep checking and be on top of these people. This might be coming out of anger but these people do not care if your app is processed on time or not processed at all! So, keep checking; Im sure you wont have the same issues as I did because the situation Im in occurs infrequently.

All the best!
