Quick question out of curiosity,

if the validation date of the petition passes before the interview, is there any chance to get interviewed at the embassy? For my petition already one month is gone and as we can see there is no hope from NVC. I am wondering what could happen if the petition expires before the interview.

Thanks and Good luck for all of us.

For those of you wanting an NVC case # you can call with your USCIS reciept # and you will be given a case number. For those of you wanting to know the status of your case with the NVC I can tell you this...

NOA1 - 4 Feb 2011

NOA2 - 27 May 2011

AOS and IV fees paid 23 Jun 2011

Mailed paperwork to NVC 2 Jul 2011

18 Jul 2011 - phone call to NVC. Paperwork received, checked and complete. Now awaiting an interview date at the US Embassy Manila.

Many times I have been given the standard answer of "20 business days to process the paperwork." Mine took about 16 business days.

Yes it is pitiful and painful. The waiting is the worst part. I have not seen my wife since 21 Jan 2011 when I returned to the US. So we text and skype and try to pass the months that way.

I would be very suprised if you were not already in NVC system.. The letter is probably in the mail.. Call and get the case number and then come back and give us some good news to celebrate. :)

Quick question out of curiosity,

if the validation date of the petition passes before the interview, is there any chance to get interviewed at the embassy? For my petition already one month is gone and as we can see there is no hope from NVC. I am wondering what could happen if the petition expires before the interview.

Thanks and Good luck for all of us.

You can always request from the embassy to extend the date, which I have never heard of it being denied before. If you happen to sit at NVC(which I hope you do not) for some time more, then after your paperwork gets to the embassy send them an email requesting to extend your validation date if you need more time. Good luck everybody.

I hope NVC will fast forward and things will be done quickly giving us enough time to process the rest of it. it is good to know that and thank you for the information.
