Hi Everybody,

So far my immigration journey with the USA has been quite smooth but sometimes too slow...

Here I am, proud Citizen since May 2015.

I did petition for my Mom in June 25, 2015. My dad passed in November 2014 and I cannot leave my lil' Mom by herself.

Her case is on time and reflect the processing time accurately regarding the USCIS by itself.

We got the Approval Notice of Action on January 11, 2016, with the usual verbiage, stating that the case has been sent to the NVC.

On January 26 I got an email/text message from USCIS stating: "On January 26, 2016, we sent your case, Receipt Number LIN**********, to the Department of State for visa processing."

Since... No news at all.

I call my Mom every single day and I do not know what to tell her anymore aside being patient.
Usually, how long it takes between the approval and case # attribution from the NVC?

I sent my documents my I-130 petition for my dad November 2nd 2015. They received it on Nov. 5th and forward my case to California Service Center then they sent me an email that day as my NOA-1 and official NOA-1 came in the mail few days later. My dad's petition was approved Jan 7 and then case sent to NVC. On Jan. 29 his case was on the system and got welcome packet from NVC days later with his case number and other instruction needed. Paid the AOS fees last week and sent the AOS form, financial documents and supporting documents to them 2 days later. Monday they received my documents and few days ago they finally unlock the IV fee and I was able to pay for it. Currently waiting for them to unlock the form D-260 so that I can fill up the IV Application form. They send me an email the other night that they will review the documents in the next 2-4 weeks and if it is good to go they will forward it to the US Embassy in Manila for interview.

I suggest every now and then call the NVC and check about your mom's case status.

Good luck and hope the wait will be over soon on your end.

Thanks and actually before I saw your post I thought mine was long because I saw some members here that sent their petition right after me and already has their interview schedule.

I guess it depends on the service center that handles them.

I am a bit confused about the next step, have to read everything carefully!

Her case was in the Nebraska center...

You're getting there. :)

For the paperwork, yeah, just read the instructions carefully and before you submit all the documents go over everything to make sure you haven't forgot anything.

Good luck :)

Everything sent to NVC this am!
Can't wait to be able to fill DS-260.
Is it normal I do not have access to it for now?

Call them again to get the next fees unlocked.

I do not understand why we do have to call... or why they do not communicate that we have to call!

Other than that, the NVC representatives are always really nice and polite.
