It will just happens when it happens, would be nice to see at least a few early August transfers in the next few weeks.

I'm just hoping the NVC to London to Visa issuance takes no longer than 4 months...... Apart from the police

Certificate I have everything ready....

* happen..... I hate typing on my iPhone!

I checked out the NOA2 to interview timelines for London recently and wasn't very excited :( I'm hoping we'll get lucky but planning for 5-6 months right now. My spouse intends to take whatever open interview slot is available when the time comes, and hopefully that kind of flexibility will shorten the wait. As with everything else in the visa process... who knows.

Eastyo, do you have the list of papers or documents we will have to send to NVC? please share it with us... I really want to have everything ready too, thanks

Pop into this thread and read the guides linked in the first post, they'll tell you everything you need for NVC: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/472916-nvc-filers-january-2014/

In addition to the forms, for NVC you'll need the original/certified versions of supplementary documents -- marriage cert, beneficiary's birth cert, police cert, medical exam, passport photos, bio page from passport, divorce or death decrees if applicable, probably some stuff I'm forgetting... check it out :)

That is what they wrote husband needs to come to us ASAP pathetic

what reason are you attempting an expedite? If i may ask.

at least they said something. I asked for one because i keep getting threatened to be put on bedrest and i need him to come and work and support us while im on bedrest. Ill have nothing. And they dont even listen to my request except to tell me its almost impossible. Oh well thanks...cuz thats NOT WHAT I ASKED! LOL

Oh..just read you told them personal reasons. Gotcha

How did you find the NOA2 to interview times to London? Is there an actual site

or just by the current posts on VJ?. I'm assuming from your post

if you are mega flexible then it should shorten the time?

Also does this 5-6 months start from i130 approval or from when the NVC assigns you

a case number (as that transfer to NVC takes a month or so)

I was really hoping to get my visa in 12-13 months....

So far I've just looked around VJ, as I've only seen wait times for non-immigrant interviews posted on the London embassy's website. VJ timelines show an average of 177 days between NOA2 and interview date. The actual interview thread shows several UK beneficiaries with case complete at NVC in November and January interviews. If 2 months is a fair guess for wait time to have an interview, perhaps the whole process can be done in 3-4 with preparation and luck. It seems as though people coming from CSC might have a slight advantage in how fast their files are shipped off to NVC, but a lot of people are struggling to get a case number assigned. There are still so many variables. I've seen people on the UK country portal here say that telling them you'll literally take an interview any time can get you in the door faster, but I guess we'll see.
