on the DS-160, when asked about intended length of stay what did you put?

I didn't get that question. I know it asked me if I had specific travel date I said no so it asked me for an estimated travel.

did you call??

at what time did you guys receive a notice saying the your petition was being sent to the NVC? Did the website update, or did you receive a text and email?

I didn't end up calling however I got the text and email last night at 10:30 saying it was being sent to the Department of State for visa processing.

Yesterday was so bizarre. I received my second physical copy of NOA2 with a different approval date. Called NVC to see if they received by file yet and the little guy was hesitant in his speech and said "I am sure we have it but we just haven't entered yet" then not 10 minutes later I get a text from USCIS saying they sent my file to NVC on April 13th. Keep in mind the text came at 7:00 PM EST. Just seems like a strange coincidence...

I got through to the NVC. They said they don't have my case yet and to wait 35 days. Should I call back on Friday lol?

Approved today!! Or actually on Monday but we didn't see this on uscis site until today! We never got an email or text for our noa2 as we did with our noA1, anyone knows about this?

Also, I'm trying to understand the next steps now - why do we need to call nvc? Can we just wait until they send us these details? Case number, invoice and beneficiary number? Will we be up for a longer wait if we don't call or does it really matter?

Will we know when our case is sent to nvc - will they notify us when they ship it to my embassy here in Sweden?

I have a question as well. For the I-134 form I've seen a lot of different items to include. Is it okay to just include a letter of employment and the most recent federal tax return for myself and my joint sponsor?

wait for your petition to be sent to the NVC. You will get a text or email. You can check the website too. Not much you can do now until your petition gets to the NVC. Check with other Swedes for region specific info.

Congrats on the approval and welcome to this side of things.To answer your questions You can wait NVC will eventually send you your information but most of the time by the time you get your letter it's already been sent to the Embass. Also with your case nnumber you can start the ball rolling some places allow yoy to do your medical,

Yes that'perfectly fine

[acoleman1992 3]

Awesome thanks! I saw a lot of people mentioning to include three most recent pay stubs as well so I was a bit unsure.

Case was sent to the NVC yesterday, April 15th! Just got the text notification/email. That's 3 working days after my case was approved. I'm shocked.
