Hi yeah so excited just heard that my k1 fiance visa was approved yesterday. Thank god. I know that now the petition goes to nvc. How long before I receive the hard copy of noa2? And when can I start calling nvc? What number do I call for nvc? At what point do I pay the visa fee and do the ds160 form online? Thank you everyone for your help. Thank you god for getting me through this part of the journey. It had been almost 1 year since I submitted 129f application.

Wow! A year??? I think you and I experienced the same case? Maybe my packet got stuck somewhere for 7 months. Anyway, maybe wait for 2 weeks before calling NVC. My fiance and I wait for 2 weeks before calling them, but we sent email last night.

I do not know though when to pay the visa fee and fill out ds 160. Maybe it is best to read your consulate's instructions.
