Hi Everyone,

The timeline apparently has the function to be able to estimate approval times based on what has already been put into it. At the bottom of my timeline there is a paragraph of small print that mentions an "as early as date", yet I can't see one of these in my timeline.

What am I missing?

Thanks

So am i correct in thinking that the stage after the I-130 is considered separate rather than part of the whole picture?

Will I get an estimate for the next part ? I think it's a DS-230.

Thanks

I'll take a look... If we have enough folks with data in the timelines then we can make accurate predictions. I'll add this if so! Encourage your friends to create a timeline if they have not! :)

please do not try to predict case complete dates on the ds-230,

as it's a variable at NVC,

and usually occurs within 60 days of submitting the DS-230/260.

No, not, please do NOT attempt this,

as each person's time to submit is different, variable,

and they, not NVC, control it.

[i say this as one of the fellas that's tracked this stuff for 4 years. Don't do it - it's a waste of time]

Log in again with a PC running Winders, report back what you see, this second attempt, soonish... Aye?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

Whoa Nelly ! Want NVC Info? see http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

Congratulations on your approval ! We All Applaud your accomplishment with Most Wonderful Kissies !

OK, got that. Thanks. A ball park time frame was what i was after. Personally I can't really control when the DS230 is submitted as I have an appointment with our lawyers who are looking after us. But at least I know that it's roughly two months.

Many thanks :-)
