Hi all,

Heard the NVC is backed up at the moment. Does anybody know roughly how long it is taking to get case numbers after NOA2?

Many thanks

On average from 2 weeks up to 8 weeks. Mine took approximately 14 days from approval date on USCIS website.

Yes NVC is really backlogged, it takes several weeks to get a case number. While you are waiting to get your case number, read Saylin's wiki here http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process

It will help you thru this process.

"Backlogged"? I can't even get 'em to answer the dang phone! Out of approximately 200 attempts over the last 10 days, I've gotten a busy signal and an almost immediate cutoff in all but one call. That call ended in a recorded message greeting me to NVC, but due to heavy workload, I should think about calling back later.

No wonder folks just cross the Rio Grande. <_<

Typically it will be less than 10 days for K1 at the moment. I didn't even have the chance for them to give me my NVC case number before my petition was sent to the consulate. People need to understand that NVC processes K1 much much faster than other types of visas at the moment. The staves from NVC even told some of the k1 petitioners that K1 is being expedited at NVC a few weeks ago.
