How can it only take them 30 days to process the AOS form, the IV form and the documentation sent when it has just taken them 41 days to review my 'choice of agent' (DS-261) form??? I'm afraid to say that I'll believe them when it happens and not before!!!

CALL THEM to review your ds261 form. Mine took forever also but when I called they said no one had approved it so the officer just approved it during the call. He was also like "oh wait it must have been overlooked without approval." SO CALL THEM. They were super helpful. :)

Ta for your reply. If I were in a hurry then I would have called them (as it is, my DS-261 was reviewed the day before I made the above post. My point wasn't so much about the wait for the DS-261 to be reviewed but more that if it takes them that long to review it then how is it possible that they can process a much larger amount of data in just 30 days!

I need help/advice! The USCIS sent my approved petition to NVC on February 26, 2015. I still have not received a case number. I called twice and miraculously got through and they told me to send an email to nvcresearch which I have three times now. Still nothing and now I can´t get anyone to answer the phone. Any tips/advice?

I emailed USCIS to find out when my petition was sent to NVC. Two emails, one took over 7 weeks and one arrived yesterday having been sent over 9 weeks ago!!!

My advice - emailing USCIS is a waste of time, unless you are happy to wait for them!!!
