So it seems our approval went to the NRC instead of the NVC. 8 weeks and 4 days for them to realise and have just updated our status to say they are sending to NVC today!

Please if your status has not changed from approved to sent DO NOT WAIT past 2 weeks - we kept being given the 6-8 weeks spiel and it had left USCIS just wrong destination :(

Fingers crossed that someone takes pity on us and gets it into the system before 2 weeks now!

Another one sent to NRC instead of NVC! This is unbelievable.

I hope it's in the right place soon!

After this process we can all get jobs at USCIS... As we are well educated on the immigration process.

I am so UPSET about this entire foolishness it doesn't even make any sense at all. Please keep us posted because I am intrigued to know what's going on here. When this is all resolved you should DEMAND that your case be expedited0.

How would I request that ? Do you think they would they do that ?

Ohhhh definitely, look at #6: https://www.uscis.gov/forms/expedite-criteria

So I just checked my case status online and this is what I saw..

Under Next Steps

As of October 3, 2016, your request to have your case expedited, referral number WKD*********OKL, is currently not assigned for processing.

So I guess my call today prompted this..
