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.

 

Thanks! This is super helpful!

PD May 26 in Nebraska. 5 cases before mine and 6 after mine have been approved on the tracking app. Out of the 18 originally around mine, only 6 remain, one being mine. :-(

Helppp! So, I got married MARCH 2015 but then when I filed my taxes for 2015 I put Single because I was recently married then. And I haven't change my status on SSN as married that time. Now, I have to submit taxes form to NVC to petition my husband. I claimed married filing separately the following year. What do i do? Will there any red flags?

2017 is most recent if u have filed them. im only submitting my 2017 taxes that has married filing separately status and lists my spouses name. u dont have to submit past three years. u can only submit the latest year which is 2017 or 2016. if 2016 has issue then u can either amend it and change status which is obviously better or take the risk where they might catch u listed as single even though ur married and that can cause issue or red flags. if 2015 has issue then u dont have to submit it. just my opinion.

1/10/18 - NOA2

1/18/18 - Case Sent to Department of State
