Yep, I wasn't able to check the status online since I filed until yesterday.

Now the question is: How many months will they hold the file at their desk at local office until they send it to NVC?????smile.png Another waiting game continues...and continues...

But at least the most frustrating part is complete.

More waiting but still it's good to see some movement at last! Good luck at NVC :)

I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.

Does anyone know if all of the cases that have been approved in September were sent local offices first? We applied March 28th from abroad (Canada) and our application is at the NBC and from what I understand will not be transferred. Just curious if the apps sitting at the NBC are being touched at all.

Don't have a timeline? Don't know how to get started with it? Do it for the statistics sake: VJ video guide

Filing for a USC spouse visa (IR-1/CR-1) and not sure what comes next? Check out the VJ IR-1/CR-1 guide

Want to know what's happening with your case? Here's the USCIS tracking page (get an account and see if the case's been 'touched'!). Don't get your hopes up though, some cases never even appear there despite being successfully processed.

About time. Seems to me the plan was to approve around 7 months. All these months they were sitting on our files when all they had to do was transfer them in the first place , so frustrating, ugh!

Best of luck for your NVC stage.

Just talked to tier 2 rep. He was very nice, he took all the information and went through few pages on screen, then he wrote something on his computer and took my contact information, he told me that i should receive an email in 3-4 days regarding my questions. He also gave me 16 digit long number, does anyone know if this is a service request number or what? Has anyone experienced this before?

I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.
