NVC Filers - October 2014

[emmaface 12]

Hello Vjs,

Our NOA2 is 9/30, I called NVC a few times already, every time I call them I get different answers. One rep said it takes 25 days, the other rep said 4-6 weeks.

I noticed most of members signature and seems like NVC received their approvals from USCIS within 15 days. It's been over 15 days since my approval, they still haven't received it....any help or guidance as to what should I do, would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Did you already receive an email/text from USCIS on when your case was shipped to NVC? I've read some people don't get a notification, but others do. The online status remains "Post Decision Activity", but it changes to this:

Post Decision Activity

On October 14, 2014, we shipped this approved or re-affirmed case to the Department of State for visa processing. For more information, please contact them directly.

My NOA2 was 9/20, and USCIS only sent it to NVC today - 26 days later. From what I understand, sometimes the service centers send approved I-130s to NVC in batches - so some happen to be sent quickly, others wait a bit.

I checked with NVC and the operator was very specifc in his answer : He Told all packages and docs will reviewed together as 1 single packet to save time and the 60 days start from the date you sent the IV docs...

Sigh. Thanks everyone for the answers. This process is incredibly disheartening - we followed all the steps the way we were instructed and are now being basically penalized for it.

Hi crisarria,

We are also in supervisor review….dont know anything till then..will find out early next week. If anything moves I shall let you know. hopefully we both get out of this BS sooner rather than later.

My POE will be from montreal…since i will not be taking any furniture with me (as of the current plan) i will most probably flying in to NYC….that shall be my POE….(as of now)..things can change…A LOT….as we know..

Hello Crisarria,

Nope..my lawyer submitted the paperwork on 7th october (tuesday) and has called every day until friday but they didn't have it in their system. This time he sent it to correct email address of NVCelectronic@. He re-sent it on 10th october (friday again). Now that it is a long weekend, he will call again starting tomorrow everyday until we get a confirmation. Never received any confirmation on email either.

How about you? Any luck? By the way what part of canada are you in? I am in montreal.

PS: happy thanksgiving!!


Happy Thanksgiving to you too!!!!

Well i spoke with the supervisor like I told you before that was Thursday the 9th and she said she would call me I have not heard from her. I was thinking of calling tomm.

We are in Gatineau/ottawa. I cant believe you are in Montreal so close. Where are you doing your POE? Do you know yet?

Hello, welcome to the thread!

I was approved on 8/18, NVC received my case on 9/17, case # assigned same day 9/17 (this is rare). I was told that it takes NVC up to 5 weeks (25 business days) for them to receive your case from USCIS from NOA2 date, so hang in there. Best of luck with this process! It can be quite frustrating lol

Thanks. That's vey helpful, hope you get very fast and smooth process.

I didn't get notification from USCIS regarding case being shipped to NVC. I checked online status and its still says "post decision activity" and also it mentioned that they have sent approval notice to my address.

Did you get notification text/email about your file has been shipped to NVC, or you randomly check on USCIS website?

Same here!!! So stressful. Makes me want to break down and cry at times

Yes. I got an email and text today saying that it was shipped today. My NOA2 was over 3 weeks ago. If your USCIS case status isn't updated, it might not have been sent yet.

Hi Targetnovember14,

I spoke today with NVC the supervisor said she has sent out a request to search for those emails and she has not received any information yet. She said I had to wait and she would call me. The funny thing is that I talked to the operator before that and she still could not see any of my emails for Sept 25 and Oct 3 I wonder what happens if I send another copy again??? What do you think??

Any new cc's today aug 22 and up?

I know what you feel. My last scan date is sept 9th. I sent in my checklist on 8/8. I keep going over and over in my head if I did everything right this time. With the old system I would know already but this new system has set me back even further. I wish the NVC would have some compassion and consideration for those of us who have been with this process so long.
