So my american and i got our NOA2 last week, and she just got an email with the NVC number saying it’s all being sent to the london embassy for me. I’m in the middle of completing the ds160 now. Is that okay? Some pages are pointing to the ds260... as far as I’m aware the process is for the “non immigrant” ds160, and once we are married i adjust my status. But the email linked to the ds260 which is “immigrant”...

This entire process is mega confusing and different people/sources say different things. Am i on the right path?

 

should i be on a different thread? ^^

Stick with DS160

 so this is what it said

@gibbersome @John & Rose @KBA

This looks very promising, I would expect to hear back soon. I received my NOA2 the day after I received my bland inquiry response. I suppose it does get USCIS's attention.

 

Rooting for you and John&Rose and anyone else still waiting!

 

FYI, saw the letter through informed delivery and then received it in the mail, no online updates.

nope theres 1 RFE thrown in there on 2nd Jan which we responded to a couple of weeks later (cos my petitioner was visiting me at the time) but otherwise it's been a long ### wait. NOA1 20/06. NOA2 09/02.

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

Interesting twist with our married friend...He can just change the K-1 to a K-3 and keep going.  I've never heard of that.  He just needs to file an I-130!.

Riiiiiight, gotcha. Fellow UKer here too. Awaiting my NVC number so I can get things moving with the medical and interview. Just wanted a rough idea of how long it's taking between NOA2 and being issued with the NVC number.
