ok, thanks Saylin and sheeshkabelle... guess i'll just have to be a little more patient then. I don't enjoy calling NVC everyday and getting a live operator who scolds me each time for not waiting up to 20 days! Very impressive spreadsheet btw, Saylin! :)

Just ignore those types of operators.

And thanks ^_^

hi guys, anyone here had their NOA2 recently that can tell me how long until you got an NVC case number? I just found out NVC has my package from USCIS is in the mailroom. Curious how long it'll take for them to enter it in their system and generate a case number.

This thread in particular deals with CR/IR-1 (spousal) visa process at NVC. I'm not sure how the priority dates work for other family based visas. You may have better luck searching the link here --> Bringing Family Members to America

or here --> Permanent Residents bringing Family to America

Good luck to you!

Like Sheeshka, I'm not familiar with Family Based Visas (as this is the IR-1/CR-1 thread), but yes, I do believe you have to wait for your priority date to be current before you're scheduled an interview.
