(I-130 - case sent to Department of State for visa processing more than 4 months ago) Hi all, updates on my above/ first question. So, my husband put in an inquiry with NVC and in reply they gave a new CASE number and asked us to proceed with a payment by using the Invoice # which was sent on the approval letter. But, on the letter there is only a receipt # not an invoice. So, he contacted NVC again and then they said an invoice # will be sent separately "soon" exact time frame wasn't given. My husband frustratedly mentioned all this to the lawyer through whom we applied - and the response which we got from her was "this is pretty strange, and we can only wait now." Is everything going right?? Can someone please help me out, this whole thing is already taken so long and at this stage the new case number and the invoice should be provided so we could proceed with the payment and next step.

No, USCIS has approved the case and sent it to Department of State for visa processing on February 27, 2023. Then I received a letter from National Visa Center letting me that they are processing the case and within 45 days I should receive a letter for my next step submitting documents and fee. It's been way more than 45 days now and still no update. An inquiry was put but no reply from them what's so ever. I'm just so confused as the cases which were submitted in June are being processed by NVC as per their website.

I-130 - case sent to Department of State for visa processing more than 4 months ago and I haven't heard anything as of yet. I have put a follow-up request in regard to my case and was told it's in process. How long would this take now??
