DS-230

[princessO 6]

Good Afternoon fellow VJ memebers...has anyone recently filed their DS-230? I recently sent my husbands DS-230 and it was delivered to NVC on 10/7/11. My question is, does anyone know how long it takes to process the DS-230? Also, this is our last filing, so how long after DS-230 is processed does it usually take for interview to be scheduled? Thank you for all responses.

It's been taking about a week or so for packages to be reviewed. So you could hear either the end of this week or next week

As for how long it takes to get an interview date scheduled after case complete, that varies by country. Some people find out a day later, others a few weeks, and for those in Ghana and Cairo, a few months! Unfortunately, I only know Canadian time frames, and not Nigeria.

Takes around 7 days on average - you can expect yours to be done in a day or two. Once it is completed, the interview date depends on your consulate. Interviews are scheduled through out the month but the bulk are done around second week of each month. All the best with your process.

The last guys, as per VJ timelines entered, from Nigeria got interview on 12/12 (case completed around 7/10) and last but one got 11/09 (CC around August).

Thank you for your responses. I just spoke to an operator and she stated that my case was completed today . Now just waiting for the interview. I am hoping for December interview so my husband can be here for Christmans. The only thing on my Grand daughters Christmas list is that her "Papa" be here. Awww...I wish I could guarantee her that, but that is not at all possible. Thanks again

Thank you...now it is just waiting for the interview...some people say NVC schedules interviews all throughout the month, but the operator says that they only schedule during the second week. So, it is just a waiting game.

Yeah, don't listen to the operators when they say they only schedule during the second week. They're reading from a script and it's a LIE. If you want proof, look at my own signature. I got my interview date scheduled during the FOURTH week. And if you want more proof, go look at previous month's of NVC threads in the IR-1/CR-1 progress reports forum.
