It is. Check the Mexico regional forum, as well as timelines of those immigrating from Mexico, others have been waiting for interviews for 12 months on average. CDJ has one of the highest interview backlogs in the world due to the number of applicants on top of that CDJ is the only US consulate in Mexico with an immigration unit

I don’t think the attachment uploaded properly so i can’t see what it is you’re trying to show. Anyways, there can be outliers, those who expedite, those in different visa categories, those who fill out their timeline improperly, switched consulates without reflecting so on their profile, etc etc. However like I said, on average most people have been waiting around 12 months. I know it’s not good or fun news to hear but arguing with the fact of the length I and many others have seen for majority of those from CDJ waiting does not make it any different

Well, after NVC received all the requested documentation for your immigrant visa case, in return send you a completed letter informing you of their final decision and its usually to let you know they have completed that faze and you are ready for to be scheduled for next interview date. Now your case is complete with NVC

Yeah, other users have report 10-12 moth wait time, if petitioned by US citizen. I heard that if you're being petitioned by a PR, then the wait time is about 4-6 moths; I don't know why.

 

I've been waiting since November 2019.

I believe after paying fees and submitting all documents to NVC it can take 3-4 months to receive confirmation that you submitted all your correct documents and 1-2 months after that your interview will be scheduled. The whole process starting from the date you submitted the petition can take 1yr to 1yr and 6 months (if everything is submitted in a timely manner). Please keep me updated I am currently in the same processes as you :rolleyes:
