i130 was approved on 25th Jan 2022. Have not heard from NVC yet in terms of welcome letter or an email.

 

Is it normal for NVC to take this long to contact after NOA2? Should I wait or contact NVC?

What's your current USCIS case status? Approved or Sent to NVC?

It could take a couple more weeks.  What is the CEAC status?

Yes, been checking everyday.

Try calling them then

It is not unusual to have some delay but still, it wouldn't hurt to call them

How do you check CEAC status? 

My mistake....  You need an NVC/DOS  case number for that.

Does USCIS update the status to 'Sent to NVC' after i130 approval?

How long do they take though? It's almost a month now. 

They have up to 6 weeks (but it usually only takes a week)
