Can you share when your case was sent to DoS and when you received the welcome letter? Nvc is taking so much tome creating new cases. 
TIA

I'm also EB, and I'm still waiting for the welcome letter (sent to NVC on 12/30/2022). From the NVC timeframes website, it takes 2 months to get it. (

Current case creation time frame: As of 9-Jan-23, we are working on cases that were received from USCIS on 8-Nov-22.")

 

I don't know why EB takes so much longer than FB..

Yes! And they are getting even more backlogged every week. 
On Dec. they were a month away and now 2 Months. Waiting since Nov. 19th.
