January 2017 I-129F Filers

[llaz 232]

Hello January filers! My fiancee and I are November filers, but we were just approved, today we just received our NOA2 and found out we were approved. 

Is it safe to say that more or less the NVC is receiving cases on average just over 2 weeks after approval? Thats what I seem to be seeing from recent approval timelines.

Congratulations! 1.5 months for them to process an RFE reply! We will reach 1.5 months by next weekend as well.

 

2 weeks for MVC to assign a new case number might be a slight underestimate. If you are lucky, you might make it! Good luck

Thank you @TiogaTiago for your update! This helps for sure!

So do you have the case number yet or still waiting to be scan stage?

 

No, we didn't get a case number :-( My fiancé was told we should have it by Monday, but I was told they didn't have a timeline of when we should receive it.  Looking at all the posts on here, it's almost funny how inconsistent the NVC answers are. I saw your additional post about the answers you got from the NVC when asking about the electronic process, thank you for sharing! Hopefully we can all cobble together a picture of reality based on our different conversations with the NVC :-)

Some of us are waiting much longer for notices from the NVC. I'm at 5 weeks currently.  It seems they are switching to an electronic system now - at least that's what I've gathered from my conversations with them.  I certainly hope yours is processed much sooner than that, but might want to set you expectations lower :-) Best of luck to you!

Yes, it was a long wait! We are excited to be onto the next step. 

Crossing my fingers, we've waited long enough.

Wow 5 weeks!! How many weeks do you have to wait until you are out of normal processing time with the NVC? 6 weeks?

The I-797 says to wait 30 days, but when you call the NVC they say it can take up to 6 weeks. Time deadlines/guidelines seems to be a bit vague when it comes to all this, but I think the 30 day/6 week frame is when you should start pushing for more answers.  Hopefully you will get a response well before that time. :-)
