I called NVC and the lady explained to me that they scan the document and at the same time they will review and approve the visa!! And it will take up to 11 weeks

Base on people experience, is that correct?!

thanks

It took exactly 9 weeks for us (scan date feb 10th, cc feb 14th), and it looks it's getting a little under 11 weeks again for most people now.

No,  total ~11 weeks or less if all the documents are in place.
