186 days for NOA2, a month for NVC and a week for embassy letter. Now more wait for interview date to open. It really feels exhausting to wait this long. But I know it will be worth it in the end.

Hi,

Anyone else left in the December group?

I think I am the only one who hasn’t got their NOA2 😔😔😔

Tomorrow USCIS will officially reach our date.

Hi A_R!

 

I know it is disheartening to feel everyone if getting their approval but you, but let me offer some words of encouragement.

 

Getting your NOA2 later than others doesn't always mean you will be getting your visa later as well. Hang on to that thought because that is what matters at the end of the day, isn't it? Even though I daresay the wait for NOA2 is the hardest, the steps that follow will depend a LOT on your Embassy procedures and, of course, on how fast NVC finishes processing your case.

 

I got my NOA2 on June 18 (June 15 according to hard copy). Case was only assigned on July 6, and today, more than 2 weeks later, my case is still at NVC. Then it will be one week at least for it to get to my local Consulate after it leaves NVC, and here is catch: in Brazil, they only allow to schedule an interview when case is ready, the earliest date they offer is one month from the date you access their system and they only do K1 interviews on Tuesdays. That means, in short, that August is off the table now. If anything, I'll be lucky to get a date in early or mid September (and then it is two weeks to get passport with visa upon approval - probably no September POE for me either).

 

Why am I telling you this? Because browsing the forums I see people who got their NOA2 many weeks after me, their case arrived in the NVC in 10 days and they were already able to book their medicals and interview. 

 

I have no doubt whatsoever that they will have their visa in hand much before me! 

 

So... who knows? Maybe your NOA2 is taking a little longer to get there but when it does, you will be able to navigate what is left of the journey much faster than you expect!

 

Keep your head up and don't lose faith.
