Hi, I am doing DCF to obtain a CR-1 visa at the embassy in London. I just recieved a packet from the embassy after waiting just over 2 months while they processed my I-130 application. I was just wondering does anyone have any idea as to how long it will take to progress to the interview stage....i.e. if all goes will how long untuil I can go to the states???? I am filling in all the forms that were in the packet they sent today and mailing them back tomorrow. I'd love to know how long this stage will take!

You are speeding through! Usually NOA2 takes more like 3 months. Once they've received the DS-230 and DS-2001, it shouldn't be more than two months to the interview date even at this time of year. I'd get that medical booked! As long as the interview goes fine, then it's less a week usually until receiving the visa and mysterious brown envelope in the mail.

EDIT - To make myself clear, it shouldn't take very long at all to receive the letter with the interview date and the interview itself shouldn't be more than two months from when you've returned the DS-230 and DS-2001.
