Hey Vista nd Kubes, I just called and still no luck. The rep I spoke to was going to send my case to her supervisor to see why I don't have a case number yet as it has passed two weeks.  You may want to call and check. 

Hey guys, we have got our case and invoice  number . The lady said they just assigned it around 2 days ago. And will send correspondence in 7 days or so. But I'll try the DS -261 today. Hope yall get your case  number soon!!

Just called NVC and asked for an update on my case and was told my case is under review now! Finally some positive feedback from them. Wondering how long they take once they are actually reviewing... Does anyone know?

Finally got my case number yesterday! Does anybody have info on how long (roughly) it takes for the case number to actually be 'eligible' in the NVC online portal? The NVC representative told me check every day but that it could be up to 4 weeks...

By phone. That makes sense: I don't have any welcome info yet. So maybe the question is...what's the gap between them assigning a case number and sending welcome info :D :D

Since i did not call to find out the case number, i am not sure. But i can tell you from the day NVC received my case to when we got our welcome letter- it took 8 days. So maybe 2 or 3 days.

Try calling and asking for an update. I saw someone here talk about asking for an update...

Made the difference even though the rep I spoke to was very rude and sounded like I was bothering him but it still got him to give me info. Let's hope we get answers soon!!!

I got my case number and IIN number and I filled choice of agent form today.. Also I paid for aos fees of 129 dollars which I supposed to wait till they review my choice of agent for. Did anybody pay their aos fees early ??? How long do I have to wait till I fill out visa application ?
