When you say file, do you mean the original forms sent?

We don't have a second copy of that, just scans. Is this just to ensure we have the same info they have? I can have my partner fill everything in again...

original file you sent to uscis should be totally duplicated but include all originals .. ie. birth cert, divorce decrees etc .. we need identical file plus more proof of ongoing relationship since we first filed ... plus letters of intent and proof of support etc

A thought just hit me...what if they are processing the high volume of cases from the backlog/slowdown period that happened shortly before the April filers approvals started raining? If thats the case this may be the last little bit of waiting we will have to do before every case is sent to its respective country....

I believe you might be right. It's a chain and everything gets back logged. USCIS recovered from their backlog fast so now we have too many cases waiting to be sent to NVC. Then when they get sent it will take more than 2 or 3 days to get the number, and then a little bit more to be sent to embassy. I believe in a couple weeks things will be back to normal time of 2-3 weeks. For the ones waiting for a case right now it might take 5 weeks to get a number.

Right now they're giving numbers to NOA2 June 13-14
