How long does it take the NVC to ship our case to the Embassy? It was completed on 12 March, but the automated phone still has the message, "your case was complete on blah, blah, blah..." How long does it take for them to say its been mailed to embassy and get an appointment? I've read they use DHL which normally takes 3-5 days, it should be there by now. Just wondering if anyone else has any light to shed on this. Thanks.

Well, your interview won't be scheduled until the second week of April (NVC assigns interview dates the second week of every month.) But I don't know about when the NVC will forward your docs to the embassy. I would assume they kept the docs until the appointment was scheduled...but maybe they don't. Does anyone know?

It will only get sent out once a date has been assigned to it. It may take up to 1 month depending on when case was completed, usually 2nd week of the each month but it never hurts to call and check avr or ask rep in a few days. Goodluck.

I believe it is the Embassy that schedules the interviews. At least that is what NVC told me. Your ds-230 package may be at NVC for a few days to a month. ( But usually not that long) Yes they start scheduling interviews the second week of the month. But they continue scheduling until the last last day of the month. At least that was my case.
