Congratulations. Each step takes 60 days to review. I called today & my AOS was scanned on August 21 & they havent even looked at it yet she said they are working on early August scan dates right now. We've been at the NVC since July. The USCIS was speedy compared to the NVC, originally they said 30 days to review, but changed it to 60 because they are so backlogged. One operator told me they get "truck loads" of paperwork daily. Haha some of them can be quite insensitive when you call. I

So i just got off the phone with NVC they said they already have my case and they gave me the case number.....and the guy said they started working on my case yesterday.....so happy to hear it :dancing: :joy: :dancing:....i tried to check the status online didnt realize that i also need the IIN number which again i dont have. but im just glad to hear that they are actively working on our case

Really hoping you hear soon Counicoune! It's been far too long for you. We are waiting to see when we get the physical & interview scheduled. Both my husband has to fly to, opposite sides of the country. It's so much money & time & we have no idea when it wil happen. When they tell us we will just have to go, I try not to stress about it, but somedays I can't help it. I haven't seen my husband since February this year & won't again until our Montreal interview because we are saving all our money for those flights. (Plus he has to fly to Surrey BC for the physical before the interview). I guess today I'm having a rough day. I hope you are hanging in there! :)

Well, to answer both, JulyFilers is from the Philippines so they will get an auto expedite. That is probably why your friends (also from the Philippines, presumably) have gotten approved even though they filed in late July. The rest of us that are not from the Philippines have to wait 5 months or more so this is not the best thread to complain when you filed in July. :)

Probably shouldn't be laughing here or trolling April filers for that matter. A lot of people here haven't been approved yet. This process is very sensitive & your post comes across as a bit rude & insensitive.

I apologize if that's how you interpret my message. Basically I was just trying to be happy and positive despite of what people have been through instead of just add on to the stress and depression that's already on the table. I have no intention of making fun or laugh at anyone's situation as I have struggled about waiting too. I know my waiting time isn't that long (yet) like the others but I give you my word I do feel and understand how they are feeling. Anyhow if you find my post very offensive I apologize, and take responsibility for my actions. :)
