Can anyone tell me where the NVC says their wait time is 8 weeks? When I log into my case in the CEAC it just says once everything is received, "it will take the NVC 2 to 4 weeks to review your case."

This is a question  for my Nigerian VJers, i will also be posting this on the Nigerian website as well. I got a checklist today from NVC for birth certificates. My lawyer called them ad was able to confirm that they are requesting fro a birth certificate issued by NPC, The National Population Commission, as opposed to the one issued by my Local Government which is the one i sent in. The problem is that NPC was established in 1988 and only started issuing BCs in 1992, years after i was born, and so cannot issue my birth certificate. I have asked my lawyers to call back and try and resolve this with a supervisor. Has any other Nigerian had the same experience and how did you resolve this?

I have a question... My husband applied for the CR1 visa because we got married April 2, 2015... However it says that if your marriage is 2 years long or more once your visa is issued then you receive the IR1 visa ... Does this mean (considering I don't think he will get it until May at this rate) that he will receive the IR1 visa even tho we applied for the CR1?

NVC themselves are not sure of what should be the standard time to review documents.

2 - 4 weeks mentioned in CEAC website used to be the standard.

It became upto 6 weeks in NVC website which was recently revised to upto 8 weeks.

The standard excuse given now by NVC: "We receive 1000s of documents every day" as if it is something new.

It is a typical sign of "go-slow" tactics of disgruntled workers of NVC. There have been recent reports of demonstrations of NVC workers asking for a raise from the federal contractor. 

May be the new administration wants to slow down legal immigration too!
