My case got there in exactly 1 week. You can call the automated system as many times as you want to see if your petition reached NVC. Just have your receipt # handy and plug it in.

depending on how quick your lawyer is, it may take from 2-3 months for the case to be completed after the nvc receives it and another 1-2 months to have the interview.

I got my NVC case number exactly 10 days after my I130 was approved. Since I had a lawyer, he was automatically assigned as the agent. I called the NVC on two days ago and they said that they were going send the IV and AOS bill to me this week. I had a minor problem since I changed the agent to myself from the lawyer. I was more comfortable with getting the documents myself than my lawyer who doesn't know anything. They said that they will resend the documents to me. I talked to my lawyer and he said that it will still take another month for me to receive anything from NVC. It is amazing how these good for nothing lawyers are able to charge hundreds of dollars for mediocre service. As is often said, "the best things in life are free". This site is an example of that. It it 50 times more informative and helpful than my lawyer yet it is free.

A new topic and some familiar names, along with some new ones! :star:

I guess I need to read up on the NVC process, as well as the medical and interview phases.... :reading:

All this before I get the "Official" NOA2 notice from CSC :lol:

I did get a touch on May 10 and a second one on May 11, since the folks at CSC said that we were approved as of May 10, my guess is that the touch on May 11 was to scan it out for transit to the NVC...but I honestly don't know :hehe:

I didn't use a lawyer, but I did use a service to insure that all the paperwork was filled out correctly. For me it bought me peace of mind, mostly because I knew they had filled out 1000's of these before mine (there is no substitute for experience IMO) :yes:

Your right there is no substitute for experience. Welcome to the NVC thread. As far as I know NVC just does a background check to make sure your not toooo bad. It's a fairly quick process. But if we all keep posting progress it gives us an idea how long it will take so we can have an idea of when it will be sent to embassy of our choice. Our choice being where we chose our fiancee from. I just used the lawyer for the initial I-129F, I am not using him for the rest of the process. I'm waiting for the NVC receipt number and i'll be BURNING UP the automated system. :innocent::whistle::thumbs:

Oh my gosh!!! I love, love, love, love, love Bluenile.com. I can stare at every ring on that website all day! I'm also thinking of getting a ring from there because the ring I got in Colombia is supposed to be "temporary". Let me know what your experience is with them so I can get my husband to get me one. :D
