timeframe of the RFE, to get approval/update

[JC&BB 33]

My rfe notice was sent like 11 am i remember but ut depends.

No maria im gonna wait until visa in hand before rescheduele.

I thought it took a week to get the visa after being approved? Why the delay?

No idea.

My senators office only got told in its final issuance stage. I was approved at interview. We are almost a month out

That's crazy, truly this process is tiring, and you never know what to expect. Once you hear approved, then you breathe a sign of relief, not expecting to have to wait a long period again. A month out and still waiting is crazy !!! Fingers crossed soon it will be in hand.

I hope

Thank you and it's coming. I think we just had the slower people working our case. They sent me a text at 8:01 last night after I had checked an hour prior to that.

I hope

I hope so too, I don't get why it's taking so long and for them to tell you nothing at all. That's so annoying they do realize they're interfering with people's future lives.

Congratssss

Thank you so much. I am relived for now. I think this by far was the hardest part.

[Anitafeliz 1,133]

I dont think they care lol were lucky to get anything i guess

[Maria1989 403]

Yeah I hope so. For some reason all my updates were sent to me at 2 a.m, I guess I only get overnight updates. I'm getting back into my sad phase. I hope to hear something soon, I hope your Interview goes well, and Anita will have the Visa ASAP.

I got updates in the am in the pm and even on a saturday....

Thank you, and I praying you get approved this week too.

So what's next with the NVC? It takes 6wks for them to get your case then what? I was checking online and I am confused with what's next. So by the end of October I was praying he would have had his interview done

[Anitafeliz 1,133]

It depends my case took from 6/25 to 7/19 i think its in my timeline but theybstrted moving faster.

Ive seen some people report in as little as 1 - 2 weeks.

DO THE DS160.

Check with your embassys guide to see if they do have a travel docs like DR where you can scheduele yourself.

It says DS156 not sure if this is the same as DS160

[Maria1989 403]

Don't know why I just got so overwhelmed with this whole process. Sitting in my office and tears just rolled down my face. I'm really glad I can come on here and vent. There is nothing like someone who understand "exactly" what you are going through.
