Day 21 today from NOA2 approval date and still no signs of my case being received at NVC :clock:

Ours landed on day 26; I've seen them to be averaging 21-29 days, and last I saw on the NOA2 to NVC was 24 days. After day 24, we started calling twice a day, once at 0700 and once before midnight...NVC really slowed down since Jan/Feb. good luck.

Just checking, is everyone talking business days or total days? Waiting 25 business days will suck :(

Also does anyone know what info from my tax return is needed for the affidavit of support? I noticed this years return was 99 pages for some reason. Not sure which info is necessary.

It's not business days.As for your tax return, we haven't but it kind of depends on what your embassy requires.

Yeah they say 35 days. A lot of people were and still are getting their numbers before the 35 days. But at least we know it shouldn't take longer than that for them to do it.
