Anyone that’s been approved still waiting on the welcome letter from NVC. Case states sent to department since 10/25

How long did it take you to get welcome letter from NVC

My stomach and brain can’t handle much more of this. 441 days is far too long to wait for just that first approval. I am crossing everything that our 7 month old gets to meet her US family before her 1st birthday but with everyday passing that seems less and less likely. I am so tired of people telling me to “stay positive” or “prepare for NVC”, I’ve been prepared! Since June! Preaching to the choir here but at least all of you Aug filers get me.

 

Hoping that we hear something this week. August 16, 2023 filer.

Congratulations mid-August people! Thank you for letting us know! To GMF3000, I'm sorry your application is still pending when others around you have been approved. Please keep us posted. Positive thoughts coming your way!

Does it make a difference if your petition was submitted electronically vs mailed in?

I feel you I was so happy to get approved and than still not receiving a welcome letter is giving me so anxiety. It’s like a never ending process 😩

Husband received the notification via text that “USCIS has taken action on your case”. He immediately logged in and went straight to the documents tab. That’s where he found our approval letter.

Sorry what’s your approval date? They are apparently working on mid October my husband said for welcome letters. I’m hoping we hear in about 2 weeks if that’s the case.

PD is August 4, 2023. Texas SC. Dates after mine have been approved. Is there usually a reason mine is still pending? Or the cases arent done in date order?

It can happen for various reasons. I saw someone with August 7th PD get approved just yesterday. You'll hear something soon.

PD August 22nd, approval letter October 31st! Makes Halloween extra special for us now talk about treat

Congrats! Which service center?

 

This is the first week since around March this year I am seeing approval times seemingly coming down. I want to be carefully optimistic since it's the first week but I am hoping things are going to start improving....
