Although it was sarcastic, I guess I shouldn't complain. This is still way much better than USCIS stage.

Yeah.... I was just laughing at the sarcasm. And yes - a million times better than USCIS. There are more little steps instead of one big long wait.

I usually called around the time frames it seemed like I would be close to whatever milestone - nvc recieve, case # and case complete. Aside from that I called about a false check list. Every time the person was really nice and gave me good advice. I mean the standard time frames, but usually they would say something like "call back at the end of the week just to check". I felt like the answers they gave me were actually based on reality and as opposed to the whatever USCIS felt like saying that day ;)

That being said - good luck and I hope you get your case complete soon!! :)

Lol ...... I don't even wanna talk or think or comment about the USCIS phase. I am just glad that part is over. I am very much hoping and anticipating that both my cases get done by end of April beginning of May and so there is an interview call date in mid June or something. As long as everything is done by June, I will be super happy.

And good luck to you too. Hope everything goes smooth and quick at your end too.

yesterday we mailed the DS260..pls can someone tell me how long does it take to get case complete ?

Did you already pay IV fee and send in your IV documents?

And when you say mail you mean submitted online correct?

Did you also Submit the DS-261? Pay the AOS fee? send in the AOS package?
