Hey Jamimay,

I don't know about the process for K-1, since I am doing it for IR5, but as far as NVC here are a couple of tips:

I got the NOA2 by mail on September 14th, I got the actual text, email and change of status online on the 17th, saying they had send everything to NVC on the 17th... NVC received it on the 22nd. (Just a little timeframe for you).

I called the NVC number to check on my case (603.334.0700). Their website states that they are open from 7am - 12am EST (not sure if this means noon or midnight :/ I should've asked). When you call most likely you will immediately get an recorded message that states something like we are currently busy with the overwhelming amount of calls we are receiving, call back later... and then the call hangs up.

As soon as you hear that message, hang up and try again. I called Wednesday September 23rd in the morning at 7:51 AM EST and I got the message 10 times in a row. On the 10th time at 7:52 AM I finally got through the main menu. I was on hold for a good 10 minutes until someone finally came on the line and answered my questions. She was nice and helpful.

A week later, on Tuesday, September 29th, 2015 I called again... I tried the call 6 times before I was able to get through, then I pressed 1 for english and 7 for other questions and was on hold for about 20 minutes. I finally got on the line with Daisy and she was nice. My case was received (as someone else told me before) on the 22nd, and Daisy said to give them at least 42 days before they can give me the case # and invoice #... which is 12 more days than they said before. She reiterated that whenever I get a number assigned I will receive the information by mail or email (whatever they have on file).

Check out this page from the NVC website to see what number you should call:
