Hi guys, I'm a citizen and my spouse is a foreign national. I applied for spouse visa on 3rd February. I got NOA on 14th February and now waiting for NOA2. 

 

Do you guys think my wife can migrate here by end of December? I'm hoping to get NOA2 next month but I'm not sure how long the NVC phase will take. I hear that it might take another 6 months. Is this true?
