your file will get sent to the NVC. Processing there is 4-6 months. Then another 6 weeks for your interview.

Follow the OCTOBER NVC thread and read all the links in the very first post. Especially the NVC WIKI.

Oh I know it will be another 7 months there abouts to get my green card at long last, but thats better than another year! Should roughly be able to move by the numbers in mid/late Summer if all goes as planned!! :D So happy!! Can't wait to be with my wife and no longer have to do this back and forth travelling #######!

I'm so happy for you to get the NOA2. NVC looks like it's speeding up compared to previous months so hopefully your trip through will be fast and fantastic.

Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
