Thank you. Just wondering what's the next step?

The 'Guides' at top will tell you what the next step is. You wait for the NOA2 letter to arrive in the mail. Then, about a week after that, you can begin contacting NVC to get your case number. NVC will send a letter informing you of the case number as well as informing you that the petition has been sent to the consulate. You can also find a 'K-1 flowchart' chart in the guides that shows estimates and each stage of the process. For Manila, you can find the forms and documents in the instructions listed on the link in my signature.

How many days do we have to wait before we call NVC to get the MNL#

Also, can anyone please a link/guide for the next steps?

Thanks everyone and God bless to those who are still waiting. Hang in there.

You guess? Yes! You are approved! Congratulations!

You can look at the 'Guides' at top for what preparations need to be met after NOA2. The link in my signature will take you to the Manila embassy website for the

download of instructions on what is expected. NVC takes 1-2 weeks to receive. You can find this under 'Guides' and 'K-1 flowchart'. Also, refer to my post above yours: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/361055-i-129f-april-2012-filers/page__view__findpost__p__5761898

Thank you! Unfortunately, Wally G's guide started becoming a little outdated (bound to happen sooner or later). However, Hank_ has provided equally useful and more up to date info.

That's great news! We are lucky we don't have to translate anything. Yes, we are enjoying it very much so. We both feel we can finally take a breather even though we waited months for the moment. Ha, ha, yeah! We already have the forms complete. Manila doesn't mail them out, and we have to bring them to the interview rather than mail them like some consulates require. I'm in the process of contacting NVC now. They told me today that our number wasn't in the system yet so I'll try again tomorrow...

Yep, translations are a PITA. Not only do they have to be certified/notarized, they take awhile to get as well. Then some of the information on forms like the DS-156K must be done in duplicate both in English and Chinese.... It's a fun challenge but we should have everything together within two weeks. We have to carry everything in also and do an info pass the day before the interview. One plus to the time line now for me is it won't be in the terribly hot and humid months and the weather should be much more tolerable.

The approvals for everyone are gathering speed! Our best wishes and prayers are with those still waiting.

I just called NVC...and got the case number.. the lady was so nice...btw she said...they just received the packet today and they are putting the information in the system. Also told me to call back on Monday to see if they forwarded the packet to US consulate in India.

I just called them...n got the case #...I actually went bed, but was checking the comments here, and thats when I saw your post. So got up and called, and they answered right away. They are open until 12.
