Assigning NVC case number

[lyricalan 18]

I was told my case file has arrived at the NVC but it just came in and a number has not been assigned yet. Is the number assigned right away or is there a lag time before they process it?

Not sure if there is a time lag but I would call back later tonight, say around 5 pm or so EST.

On another note, congrats on being approved after a full year + waiting with no RFE. You are a strong patient couple.

Your case number is imminent. Call the NVC every day until you get it.

Once you get your MNL case number, your fiancée can pay the visa application fee at BPI and you can schedule an Embassy interview appointment 4-24 hours later. Things are going to speed up now!

If not, then you'd better get busy.

You're going to the interview? Excellent! It should be a slam dunk.
