NVC hold up

I was approved on Oct 27 and i am still aiting for the NVC to send the case over to Moscow. They said that it is under Admin Review. How long did it take for the people with Russian Fiancees to get through NVC?

Alex,

Every case is different, some people wait a few days, and some months. In my case, I had to wait for almost 3 months before it got approved and sent to the embassy in moscow. Unfortunately there's nothing you can do, but wait and call them for the status of your case. Try to patient, I know it is hard. I spent a long time with NVC, but it did go through.

I was on Admin processing for two weeks. Looking at other timelines I saw others waiting a few weeks, days or months.

I did get an email saying, due to 9-11 there are new extra background checks.

Good luck!

It took us 2 weeks. They always say under admin review even if it is normal processing. Do not get too worried, although you have waited more then most.

They always say admin processing, but admin review is something different. When I asked the NVC they said I was in admin processing and not admin review.

That does seem a little long.

Stay on top of it. It's usually a week or two, tops. If you're case is taking two months, you definitely need to talk to someone there to find out what's going on.

Keep us posted. (And maybe try this over in the K-1 or NVC thread.)

They managed to loose ours for ..... 3 months! Original was sent it to National Records instead of NVC. They don't like even looking for it until the 90 days is up. Good luck.

Been ten months now since our case was approved and over a year since we applied. Still on wait.

Our case was at NVC from like early April '05-Nov '05 and interview was in Dec '05. It was painful but it did end eventually.

I would call again to clarify...

Seek more info.

Most government employees don't do anything unless they have to, or are bothered ad nauseum and would rather do it than keep being bothered.

You may have better luck with the bothering than waiting until they're required to do something.
