Too late to ask for DCF?

[rightsided 4]

Hello all, 

I recently submitted all of the required paperwork for my spouse's I-130 o the NVC. I am leaving Japan at the end of August and I am worried my wife may not have her visa by then. Should/ can I ask for a direct consular filing now that I have an offer letter from my company and a hard date? JFYI I submitted the remainder of my paperwork in late June.

DCF is a process for submitting your petition for approval.   You are past that step if your petition is already at NVC

Your wife having her visa by the end of August might be very optimistic if your case just arrived at the NVC

Sorry, allow me to clarify: I  submitted the I-864 and DS-260, last month.

In that case just wait out the NVC/interview process. There’s no point starting from scratch. Though August is very optimistic that she’ll be interviewed- add couple more months.
