How long does it usually take for NVC to receive the case from USCIS?

Our NOA2 was approved over 7 business days ago but case status still doesn't show it was sent to NVC, only mentions it was approved.

That's not an error, your IV fee hasn't been invoiced. Call into NVC and ask them to invoice IV fee.

Just an FYI, since today is the tax return deadline in the US, from now on, 2014 tax information will be required in the AOS package and 2014 is now considered the most recent tax year on the I-864 fo

I was trying to figure that out myself as well

I think its somewhere between 1-3 weeks, with 1.5 weeks being an average lately

Good luck ( to us :) -we are in the same boat)

If I sent two packages separately, which one is considered as scan date?

Please add me to the spreadsheet, my AOS package was scanned March 19 while the IV package March 25. Still waiting...Thank you

Oh god, my worst fear has come true, called NVC and asked if my case has been reviewed, they said yes and that I have to pay IV fee. I just got my Agent of Choice reviewed by agent and waiting for IV fee to be invoiced. Does anyone know If I have to wait again full 45 days for a review after submitting the IV fee?

Hello

I see that we are in the same boat.

I got a checklist for not paying the IV fee, when we called the NVC, they just said to wait for the ds260 to be reviewed :(

I was looking for you! I remember someone getting a checklist for IV payment but couldn't remember who. Did they say how long will that take? Is it possible to ask them to escalate this to a supervisor?

They said that we have to wait !!

the rep confirmed that the fee was paid and said that the ds260 has to be reviewed before the case is closed but did not want to give any time frame .

Its been a week now, we will call today, I ll keep u updated.

Its really frustrating.

Lets hope it wont take too long for both of us :)

How long does it usually take for NVC to receive the case from USCIS?

Ours took almost 3 weeks untill the NVC confirmed they got it.
