Just spoke to the person at NVC and my case was approved on 12/31/13 and shipped on 1/6/14 and he said they still do not have a case number for me and that it can take up to 8 weeks OMG that is crazy does it really take that long?

well in some cases it does but for most its quicker, I would just keep on calling them after one week to check if you have received the case number

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

Once you get the case number and IIN, NVC will generate AOS invoice fee and IV fee which can be paid by anyone with bank account in United States. If you send the payment via money order it will take little longer than paying thru bank online.

My husband and I got approved on Dec 31 at TSC and we still have not been transferred to NVC yet. We called once and they said it has been taking four to six weeks, but that I should call them every week just to check.

Hi, was just approved last night. PD 3/22/13, transfer to TSC 11/15/13. Anybody know about how long it's been taking texas to transfer cases to NVC after noa2?

In same boat as lot of people here

from TSC approved Dec 13

email shipped to NVC Jan 7

called Jan 10 no packet received at NVC yet

waiting for NVC to receive packet - ?

IIN issued from NVC- ?

Mine took 2.5 weeks from CSC to NVC, another 2 weeks to get fees generated, sent packages about 1.5 - 2.5 weeks later after all the fees approved/cleared bank.

Hi all, my wife in the US called NVC several times last week to try to get our case number and received a 'busy' signal instead of getting through to the automated answer service. Anyone had the same or knows why this is?

I sometimes get busy signal (just means someone probably is calling at the exact same moment as you. Many times I've hung up and gotten someone immediately after that, sometimes after hanging up and trying again 5 times lol.

Is it, really?..

LOL, no, not at all (worse than USCIS, that is).
