Could any of you share tips on how you're preparing for the next NVC step? I was looking at a sample copy of Form 260 and wondering if it would help speed things up by preparing the answers to the questions so we can copy and paste. Also, I know it varies from consulate to consulate, but what estimates are you all seeing for timeframes between I-130 approval and interview?

 The best way to prepare for the NVC stage is to start preparing/gathering the required documents and being prepared to pay the fees as soon as it available. The police certificate(S) especially is a good starting point, since for some people that could take some time depending on location and/or how many police records they're having to get. Ensuring you have vaccination record available and even getting the required ones that you don't already have. Also, for documents that needs to be translated, if applicable.

Has anyone received an email similar to this? We didn’t place an inquiry so I’m wondering if the email suggests that they’re actively reviewing our case?

This is a standard response that comes through 30 days after chatting with an Emma agent.

For those approved, did you get these updates also over the past couple of days? I'm wondering if that wait time for NVC to send us a case number starts from the date the case was sent or from when it was approved by USCIS

Good to know that I should look out via email! I thought it would come via snail mail.
