I'm sure this is common knowledge, but it serves as confirmation of why there's so much delay...

Ooh! That's better.

Having done some calculations, I was able to put this down;

 

NOA2 : 6 months + End April/ Early May

 

USCIS to NVC : 8 weeks (60 days) End June/Early July

 

NVC : 1/ 2weeks (7/ 14 days) Mid July

 

NVC to Embassy (DHL - 7 days) : End July

 

Schedule Interview ( 30 days) : End August / Early September

These calculations are the longest it could be. Not all approvals take 200+ days. We only see a small portion of applicants on here. I'm staying hopeful after all they have picked up the pace since the new year started which is what I said would happen all along. Be positive because being negative will just get you down.

Thank you for the clarification, I was starting to worry!

Hello everyone!

 

I'm back..

To tell the truth going to see the fiancé and my future home, and coming back made me a little bit sad and more depressed than I was before I went... complicated times this is!

 

The cats are happily settled.... way too happily to tell the truth! 

They did not even check or look at the cats when we were entering through LAX (This changes depending on the state - California doesn't ask for anything from cats)

#Americancatfoodrocks 

 

I can't believe so many people from June and even May friends are still waiting for NOA2...actually no, no ... I can't believe so many people are still waiting for NVC.

 

I won't be able to give a good weekly yet, as they are not updating properly.

Which I am guessing they are not comfortable with us telling them 

"Dude you are so not doing June 1 cases"

 

So I updated all the months even under the current circumstances, 

to give an idea of how much pending case we have left.

-------

Non-updated Noa2s

However, my personal thoughts after seeing how the cases flow and update/non-update works.

I believe June virgins are actually around 1300s, and some July cases will get their approval in the upcoming week without an update.

 

NVC Wait

Right now average looks like 45+ days, you can also find list we are putting together in my signature if you want to check how that wait is going at the moment. This wait is caused because USCIS is not sending Approved petitions, it is not a wait happening at the NVC level.

-------

I will be watching the situation through this week, to have better updates, and information on how things look.

 

Monthly situation is as follows;

	June	July	Aug	Sept	Oct	Nov	Total
Approved	946	15	13	6		1	981
Virgin (Untouched)	1884	3263	3519	3176	3770	3304	18916
Touched (RFEs,Updates)	853	135	139	129	128	67	1451
Excluded	358	383	404	287	244	205	1881
Total	4041	3796	4075	3598	4142	3577	23229

 

For months after August,

I would say watch for when they update the website information to July 1.

Because the "as of" they'll give will show us if they will try and speed up their approvals.

We already know October 31 update is not really truth, however they did by then touched all May cases. so the real update for the next one normally should be July 1 as of December 31 (which is not exactly correct either), However I expect if they actually speed up the process they may give us a July 1 as of November 30 update!

Thank you for the current stats, it really puts thing in perspective.
