NOA2!!

[GusandCrys 3]

Hello Everyone!

We sent our package on September 14th, we received NOA1 September 19th and got a notice that our alien registration number was changed on September 28th. We just found out we received NOA2 October 8th! We saw some questions about what the change of alien registration number means, and now we're sure it means NOA2 is just around the corner. A few questions we have now!

We are hoping for an interview date in March since we need some tax papers for me and to collect money for the payments. Is it possible to switch interview date easily to the next month if we are assigned an interview too early? (this is all a bit earlier than we expected but we are SO BLESSED)

What is a round-about time frame we might be expecting to hear from the consulate that everything is ok to set up interview?

Thank You for all your help through this, we couldn't have done this without this website and all the great posts from everyone!

The alien registration number is always changed shortly after the NOA1. However the processing times for the NOA2 are not determained by that.

But congratulations and how awesome that it's going so quickly for you!!

Brazil assigns the interview date for you. It will take about a month after your NOA2 to get your interview date. My guess is your interview will get scheduled some time in January. You will have to email the consulate to get the interview rescheduled.

Yay, congrats guys, . Just about in corner both of you will be soon together,

Edited:

I am just realized your NOA-2 is just 18 days from NOA-1. Wow, you beat another VJers here that got approval in 19 days.

That is awesome!! Congrats to u both!! ;-) I did notice you were also processed thru CSC. There is a lag time between NOA2 and NVC actually receiving the info for applications processed thru CSC currently. From what I'm reading it's typically between 4-6 weeks until case is received at NVC and case # is assigned. Our NOA2 was Sept 20 and still waiting for case #... Blah! BUT if ur hoping for a March interview anyway, this may be good news to hear. Either way, congrats and one day closer! Yay!

Congratulations on approval! I wish that was the case though. We received NOA1 dated August 30 and our Alien registration number was changed September 20. Since then, nothing. ?

We are being processed at TSC though and things seem to be chugging along MUCH faster at CSC. Either way everyone seems to have it easier now than the people who filed before May and have had to wait 5+ months.

Good luck on the rest if your journey! ☺
