Hello All,

After 6.1 months of waiting, we FINALLY received our APPROVAL notice on the USCIS website. It states they approved it on 3/14 but it just showed up today.

I know we need to send off the DS-3032 choice of agent email, but I need the NVC case number. Since I have not received the notification email or actual letter yet, how can I find out what the NVC case number is?

I tried to search for this info on previous threads but I didn't find it. So if you could please indulge me on how I can find out the NVC # so I can move this package down the field I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Our time line:

Congrats on your NOA2!!

You have to wait til the case is received at the NVC and for them to put it in their system, then they will assign a case number.

Not sure how long it is taking USCIS to pass on the files right now - I had seen people waiting about a month earlier in the year.

I got my NVC case number I think 11days after the NOA2 (check my signature) - but that was in April 2011.
