If you used a lawyer or if you did not use one, once approved by one of the service centers everyone's approval is taken care of the same way by NVS.

The process: The CSC mails your entire case to the NVC. Then the NVC reviews it for like 1 or 2 days and upon getting it gives out an NVC case number. However in most cases by the time you get ur NVC case number your case is transit to the US Embassy (2-4 weeks). Average time is 3.5 weeks. (talking about the process time at the NVC).

After the NVC gets your case and finishing the quick review, the NVC uses DHL and ships it to the US Embassy. Once the US Embassy gets the case, the US Embassy will then send your Fiance all the information with a check list of things he or she needs to get done before coming for the interview. (There is also a few things you need to mail to ur Fiance before she goes for interview) Look under K-1 for this information. If you used a lawyer the lawyer should send u a check list of what needs to be sent to ur fiance.

The interview process goes by really quick from start to finish in most countries, but all depends on which country your fiance is from.

hope this helps!!

I think you forgot about "name checks" they take longer for some reason.

I wasn't able to find a section on the NVC website where you can check on the status of your case. Is the only way to find out your KEV # by calling them at 202-663-1225?

On my NOA2 it says "The above petition has been approved, and forwarded to the listed consulate"

Did it go to NVC or did it go to the foreign embassy?

Please For God And Love Sake Help Me And My Husband Out Of This Immigration And Home Land Security Unwarrant Delay on our case Since Year 2005.God Bless America.

Case File Receipt Number: EAC0411451119

Beneficiary: Olabode, Ishola

Dear Sir/Madam;

I met my husband Ishola Olabode through an online dating service in July 2003. His profile was sent to me as a possible match and my profile was sent to him. We made contact and became friends immediately. Our courtship consisted of daily emails, web chats and telephone calls. This communication continued until my visit to Senegal the following Feb 2004. This was my first visit to Africa. During our day trip to Ghoree Island, we agreed to get married. We planned to have a small private wedding in Senegal and after he joined me in the US, we would have a large ceremony at my parent’s home in South Carolina.

Ishola and I have maintained daily contact with each other since February 2004 either through telephone calls, emails, text messages, and the webcam. On 12/11/2007, I returned back to Africa to visit my husband who had returned to his country of Nigeria, West Africa since July 2006. I was finally able to spend the holidays with my family in Africa.

I have sent homeland security in support of the validity of my marriage my work identification, 4 years of telephone records, emails, western union receipts, visa to Nigeria, entry and exit stamps from Nigeria, Hotel receipts while in Nigeria, and photos from both trips but still our case is pending since early year 2005 when the America embassy in Senegal said they wanted to investigate if our marriage is real but up till now they did nothing on our case.

Please contact me at the above address or (347)627-3340 if you need additional information. I am willing to provide anything I have for your review. You may also contact my husband at 011-234-805-158-4640.

I’m looking forward to having my husband here with me soon. Thank you very much for your attention to this matter. We are tired of leaving apart from each others because distance affect love.

Sincerely,

Rachel Ferguson-Olabode
