Did you call to make sure they recognized your DS-260, there's no shame in being a bit of a bother, this is your future and your happiness, I agree all we can do is wait, but you still have the right to know whats going on!

Oh yeah they tell me everything is in order.. Just that I'm under review and within the time but that everything is as it should be up to this point

Hello Everyone. congratulations to all that have received the interview dates, and good luck to all that are starting their journey. I need some advice and support from you all to help me get through this last hurdle in my journey. I am a US citizen petitioning for my spouse in India. (CR1). I applied for his case March 31, 2017. I received my I-130 approval notice exactly 6 months from that date. My case was processing in the Texas Service center. After that I sent in all my paperwork, and my case was completed January 18, 2018 of this year. It is now 12 days down the road, and I have still not heard anything about my interview date. I called NVC many times to ask about the update, but I keep getting the same answer, "your case is in line and is waiting to be scheduled for an interview". They are not much help, especially when they are sitting there and telling me that I am calling too many times, but all I have to do is wait. I am getting frustrated about my case and I just want to know how long it normally takes. My case is going to be forwarded to the consulate in Mumbai. If anyone can please tell me that they relate, or they know how long it might still take? Thanks alot everyone for hearing me out.

I actually called today to check on my application, I have been told back and forth that i am under review or that it is still waiting to be under review. When I called today I asked what the status was and when they said it was in review i asked the gentleman to check what the date was that it was sent to review as I have faced these issues before. He kindly checked for me and told me that my document was sent to review on the 24th. If you decide to call again, ask them to check the dates for you and try to explain the situation! I hope you can get some answers like you deserve!

Do we need to include the AOS and IV payment receipts as well as DS260 confirmation page into the package that goes to NVC, or all 3 documents are not needed to be send?

It wasn't necessary to complete the NVC process for Canada (they can look at it online). They say hang on to the receipts with bar codes for when you go to the interview. If it makes you feel better you can always send it in with your package :).

Thank  you for responding! this last bit of it is getting very frustrating. Do you know by any chance how many interviews they schedule per month?

I will call them right now and let you know.. Do they mark down how many times someone calls, because it seems they know that I am calling every single day. I did not receive any emails either..
