Me and my spouse both are in india. I have heard that we need to produce proof regarding income status of the US citizen among the couple. Will it be a problem in our case as we both have been in India for the past one year?

Is there any income source for your citizen spouse?  The income has to be above the poverty line of US.  If there is no sufficient income source for the petitioner then you will need additional income support from someone else which I believe is form I-864A.

If her current and permanent address are same then I'm sure her passport must have same address.she has to submit proof of current address

Now you wait until the USCIS send your petition to the NVC. Usually the online status will be updated to (On (date) we sent Your case receipt no------------------ to the department of state). There has been different times frames for when the USCIS send the petition to the NVC. some was sent within a week, and some waited for a month. It depends on the service center and when they send mail out in patches. 

 

Once you get updates it was sent to the department of state (either online or by calling USCIS), it takes a week and up to 6 weeks for NVC to receive the case and enter it in their system to generate a case number.

 

Usually, you should start calling NVC a week after the case was sent from the USCIS to see if NVC received it. Once they receive it and have a case number, give them an email so this would be the way of communication which is faster and more secure.

NVC, in their mail stated that it could take upto 6 weeks for them to receive a case after USCIS sends it to them.  Now, once my NoA2 comes, there is no way that I'm gonna get a different reply till

6 weeks afterwards.

I've also seen people from june getting approved at Nebraska. It's kind of unpredictable now when a petition gets approved

Hey abies, how many days you waited for the approval since they received your RFE?. It's our 47th day now and still waiting. And what did you do to find out that your case was approved. Thx to whatever info you could give me.
