How long does the initial intake process at NVC take? We were approved for an expedite and the case will be sent to the embassy as soon as they complete the initial intake process (no, not our IV or AOS, but the process that NVS does initially for all cases). Does anyone know how long this takes? We received our case number 1 month ago and all they tell me on the phone is that they have no timeline for completing this process!
