Hi My case , about form i-130 , is approved. And now? I am in Italy? How much time for the next step? How much time do I have to wait for the interview? Thank for help in advance

Hi! Are you the petitioner or the beneficiary?

Your case will be sent to NVC, where they will issue you a case number and invoice number; this can take up to 6wks. While waiting, I suggest gathering all required documents that you will need to send to NVC. (You can read on the NVC process here: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process ) Once you get your case number, you can pay for all the necessary fees and fill out the necessary forms. You will send your documents to NVC and wait for them to review your case (which can take up to 6wks from the time they receive your documents). Once your case has been completed, NVC will schedule your interview with the embassy in your country. Good luck!

I am the beneficiary so do you think 3 months ?;(

As long as you file your paperwork correctly and provide all the necessary documents, based on the experiences of members here, I'm estimating it will be at least another 4 months. The NVC process will go quickly if you begin gathering all the documents now so that when you have paid for all your fees you can send the documents immediately.

Depends on how fast you and petitionary get the documents to NVC and if they are approved or an RFE is needed

and when a visa number becomes available

you still have a lot of work to do to get to the interview stage and months of waiting to hear

best of luck to you

Depends on how fast NVC paperwork and stuff submits are done.

Usually takes 3 to 5 months.

good luck
