What happens after NVC sends case to London embassy?

[SandyKay 5]

Hello, VJers!

I contacted the NVC earlier today after 25 days of waiting, and apparently they still haven't received our case since I was told to call back after it's been 35 days since my NOA2. However, I started wondering what exactly is going to happen once they send my case off to the London embassy. Will I receive anything from the embassy stating that they have received my case? Will they send something to my fiance with the list of what he needs to get to them, or do we find that out ourselves?

Thank you!

Hi - Not sure whats taking you so long at the NVC, it look me about two weeks. Once they had it, it took them about a week to assign a case number, and then send the letter to London. Once you have your LND case number, you can go ahead and book your medical exam. I booked mine about a week from when the NVC assigned the number. You can just wait until you receive a letter from London, but I wanted to save a bit of time.

The letter from London tells you the next steps that you need to take, like filling out the DS160, filling out the interview readiness form, and obviously going for a medical (think i got those slightly backwards).

After the medical (assuming you have done the other bits) the embassy will send you an interview date. It took me about 2-3 weeks after the medical was passed to the embassy to receive the letter, and the appointment was 2 weeks after that!

Good luck...... to us both, my interview is in two days now! Im freeking out!

I'm not sure why it's taking so long either, but I've heard from a few people who received their NOA2 around the same time as me, and some of them are having a bit of a delay as well. Not particularly worried yet, though!

So, I'm the petitioner and my fiance is the beneficiary living in the UK. Will he be the one receiving the letter from London? Also, how long did it take for you to receive your letter from when the NVC sent your case off to the embassy?

And wow, your interview is so soon! Good luck to you!
