Guessing how long it will be is exactly that, a guess. It seems that processing times have a lot to do with the interviewing embassy. Adding delays for requesting a new birth certificate, and the police check once it was requested I had my passport back in hand and ready to go from Canada 6 months after file date. After you file and receive a receipt number from the NVC, contact them immediately to obtain your case number. From there you and your spouse will be able to login, fill out the required questionnaires and pay the required fees. Doing all this upon helps avoid delays.

 

As stated, your spouses entry visa will be good for 6 months after issue. The green card gets mailed to your US domicile address, along with her social, after they makes legal entry on the visa.
