It could be up to 3 months or 12 weeks. But make sure send all appropriate financial and support documents .If you miss one, time can increase up to one month.

Person whom I deal with immigration, he told me that timeframe and also what I saw from my friend's case.

Did he get any RFE or something else? I spoke to NVC a few hours ago and they told me it's UP to 11 weeks but it might be sooner than that.

He missed on a document in native language which increased his timeframe to almost 4 months . But as I say, it could up to 12 weeks but not necessarily end of 12 weeks.

So for the RFE you can easily add 4-6 weeks AT LEAST.

Is it 11 weeks or up to 11 weeks?

I don't know who came up with the 11 weeks mark but it's real! Our 11 week anyversary is in 2 days and today we got an answer from NVC! Sadly it's a checklist ... 

 

Does anyone here know if the new document submitted will reset the 11 week clock? Or will they process it as they receive it ? 

 

Thanks for any help!

Of the checklist says you can bring the requested item(s) to the interview, then they will schedule one and the 11 weeks won't restart. If they want you to send them to the NVC, it starts all over again. What was the checklist for?

Is the 11 weeks estimate start from the date the NVC has recieved the file from the USCIS or from the time you've submitted the DS-260 and AOS and all required documents online for the NVC

Thanks

From your scan date (after you send the aos & iv package) but if you do it online, might be faster, not sure:). I have seen electronic processing (sending docs via email) go really fast, but not everyone can do that
