Got approval of I-130 March 19th. Just called NVC to check whether its updated/received in their system and its not in their system. The operator said it takes anywhere from 10-15 days to receive it and to call back then. How long after you guys got the NOA2 did you follow up to get a case #. I know they are saying their standard speech of 10-15 days but how are your experiences.

Recently it's been taking about 15-20 days from NOA2. Several people in the NVC March Filers thread just received their cases numbers yesterday and they had NOA2 dates of March 2. Just keep calling back every couple of days and you'll get it soon. Good luck!

The operator said it takes anywhere from 10-15 days to receive it and to call back then. How long after you guys got the NOA2 did you follow up to get a case #. I know they are saying their standard speech of 10-15 days but how are your experiences.

My NOA2 date was 3/2/12.

NVC received my case on 3/12/12.

NVC assigned my case number on 3/21/12.

As others have stated I would suggest calling once or twice a day until you get your case number and IIN#. If you haven't joined the NVC March 2012 thread I suggest you do so. It is nearly 200 pages long, but the most useful information can be found in the first 2 posts. Make sure to read these first 2 posts before asking any questions about the process.

Good luck on the rest of your journey!

Got approval of I-130 March 19th. Just called NVC to check whether its updated/received in their system and its not in their system. The operator said it takes anywhere from 10-15 days to receive it and to call back then. How long after you guys got the NOA2 did you follow up to get a case #. I know they are saying their standard speech of 10-15 days but how are your experiences.

Hi, we got approved March 19 also. We emailed NVC 4 days ago, but no reply yet.
