Yay! We just submitted 2 days ago, I'm hoping it's way quicker than the rest of the process has been so far! Would love to have my husband here before my birthday and Valentines day! We've yet to celebrate my birthday or Valentines together face to face so I'm looking forward to our first real Valentines 🤩

It should be quicker! The wait at Nebraska was so long! Your embassy seems to be quick to schedule interviews so hopefully you can spend those especial dates with your husband! This year was the first Valentine's day we could spend in person and it was awesome! All my best wishes to you 💕

I was approved same day- also from Texas . I actually called NVC yesterday and they said to call back in another week, they were currently assigning case numbers from petitions they received on 10/21, and they received mine on 11/06. 
Best of luck!!!

Oh okay then. Thanks for the update, i appreciate it. Let's wait till next week. Have a great weekend.

Hi @LilyJ

 

i am from France , waiting for NVC to review my case ( I will be at 6 weeks wait next week )
where did you saw that the wait time for interview is 5 months for France please ? 
thank you for your answer 🙂

Check your local embassy website, mine (Sydney) says 4-6 weeks for interview... I’m sure Paris would also show the lead up time for interview scheduling

I have the same issues. my iv was PAID on the 10th and AOS still shows as pending as of now the 15th.

Paid both on the 7th at 2 AM their local time

We started calling them of Friday but couldn't get through the line, so gotta do it on Monday, no changes of the status yet. I would suggest calling them as well, I don;t think this is expected behavior. Good luck!

@Saci Singh

thank you friend 🙏☘️😺

i start to get a little bit despair and think that maybe we will have to stay here in France another the year at the pace NVC /embassies are working . 6 weeks next weeks and they still didn’t touched my case . What about if after this long wait there is a review and wait again then .

plus don’t know how long to schedule appointment in Paris and the wait time between IL and interview ..

i thought we will be done for the end of the year but obviously no ..

I know that the forum is for interviews in Mexico . My husband lives in Mexico so I know what I’m talking about,  and the wait is up to 10 months or longer right now 

Yeah thats true. Im too lazy to catch up with the last 15 pages of this thread that were posted in the last two days (🤭!!!) so I don't know what was mentioned about Mexico but the wait time after being approved by NVC is around 12 months if petitioned by a USC. Around 2 or 3 months if petitioned by resident.

Does it take longer to get through USCIS if you're a resident? Just wondering how that would make sense if not...

Hey! I have done some digging on timelines on here, from the looks of it, Paris seems fast for interview :) Around 2 months for most people it seems from CC to interview

  • Sep 19 2019: I130 NOA2 (Approved - 217 days from NOA1)

 

NVC Stage:

  • Sep 27 2019: Sent to Department of State
  • Oct 31 2019: Case number received (34 days since sent)
  • Nov 1 2019: IV & AOS fees received & paid
  • Nov 14 2019: IV & AOS submitted
  • Dec 18 2019: All docs accepted, but one additional doc requested (5 weeks from submission)
  • Dec 18 2019: Requested doc submitted
  • Feb 19 2020: Documentarily Qualified (9 weeks from 2nd submission, 14 weeks from first submission)

 

Interview Stage:

  • Mar 11 2020: Interview letter received
  • Apr 1 2020: Interview date
  • Mar 17 2020: Interview cancelled due to COVID-19
  • August 3 2020: Rescheduled letter received, new appointment August 25 2020
  • August 25 2020: Visa approved at interview! (558 days from NOA1)

That might be the difference because made the request at the office in Kingston

Some NVC fun facts to take all our minds off of the busyness (unless everyone else already knew and I'm just behind 🤣) : You can find out what day your case was created and if you were 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc scanned into the system for your consulate that day! The 3 letters and first 4 numbers are (of course) the consulate and the year, but the next 3 numbers can tell you the date. If you take those three numbers, and subtract it by 500, then you can look at the Julian Date calendar and that tells you what day they created your case. The last 3 numbers tells you what petition you were that day scanned for that consulate! So if your last 3 numbers are 006, you were the 6th petition whose case was created for your consulate for that day. Here's the calendar if anyone wants to look at their case creation date! Ours was October 30, the day before we got our case number https://landweb.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/browse/calendar.html

Maybe everyone else already knows but I just found out about it and I thought it was fun, so I thought I would share for maybe others who also didn't know!

Ours was the 28th scan of the day
