Good morning everyone. My Fiancee, Christi, received an email from the USCSIS.

NOA-2 Approval sent! :dance:

We are _so_ happy :) According to the user timelines, we could expect my interview to be as early as the beginning of May!!

Not getting my hopes up too much, but I can't deny that this news does make me want to run round the office screaming like my hair is on fire :yes:

So, from what I have seen am I correct in thinking the following:

It should take about 20-30 days for our case to be forwarded to the NVC

It should take about 30 days for the US Embassy in London to receive the packet from the NVC

I should have my interview about 30-40 days after that? In the meantime they send me a packet to fill out?

Trying to stay calm is _not_ easy ^_^

I am trying to not be jealous since our NOA1 from California was a couple of weeks before yours.

However, on your comments, since my husband is from the UK we have been looking at the history of the Londond Embassy and I think you can be more optomistic concerning interview date. It seems to be fairly common for the Packet 3 sent by the London Embassy to arrive 3-4 weeks after approval (and rare to be more than 5 weeks) and when you respond to Packet 3, the Embassy figures out when your interview is (from what I can figure out). However, after rsponding to Packet 3, the time people wait for an interview does seem to vary significant, For example, there are 7 people on visajourney indicating an interview in London in January and after responding to Packet 3 they waited anywhere from 3 to 12 weeks for an interview. So I think if you respond promptly to Packet 3 the beginning of May is the absolutely latest for the interview but could be earlier. (You can use the timeline search function to search for this type of information ... it is very helpful.)
