Hi everyone, our I-130 was just approved yesterday and we are getting our documents together for NVC while we wait for NVC to receive our approved petition. I read on the travel.state.gov website that there is email processing available at the NVC stage for the following embassies: ADD, BNS, FRN, GTM, HNK, KEV, MRV, PHP, RDJ, SYD, TGG, or THT.

 

Since BNS is our embassy, and it is on the list, I am definitely going to do email processing because I have heard it is faster. Does anyone have any experience with email processing, and if so, would you be able to detail your experience i.e. process for submitting the documents with email processing and how long it took for your case to be completed.

 

I am most interested in knowing how much time can be saved at the NVC stage by doing email processing as opposed to mail processing, that way I can figure out roughly how long we still have to wait in this whole process. Thanks in advance to anyone who is able to give me any information you might have.

 Where can I find out what the letters mean? Our US embassy will be in London England (beneficiary is British) after it leaves the NVC.

I called them 2 weeks after sending them and the packets had just been reviewed that morning. From what I have seen, 2 weeks is about average. Definitely call them to see if they have any info for you. NVC is sloppy, so keep on those guys until you get your case complete! Good luck!

One more thing, if possible, call NVC the minute they open. I called them every day after the 2 weeks had passed and always got through without any wait time when I called right when they opened.
