We submitted the I-130 in July 2014, paid our final processing fee early June but are still waiting for a case complete/interview date. After 14 months, I am wondering how much longer this is likely to take? My son is already late to start his university course here in the US and is very frustrated.

Wonder if there are other people on here that are also applying for a visa under an IR2 and how long they have waited?

I wish we could talk to someone!! When I applied for my visa, we could call and speak with someone at the NVC, now it is just a recorded message on the number we were given on their letter : 603 334 0700, it does not matter what time you call, they just leave this message on :( Have been apart from my son since moving here in 2011 and it is breaking my heart :( :( :(

Well we persisted on the phone last night and finally got through to someone, found out they were 'missing' his birth certificate and that was the hold up. They were also waiting for us to complete the DS-260. Very thankful for your advice, we had assumed (feeling stupid now) that the NVC were simply not taking calls as each time we called we got the recorded message - the message in itself should be a little clearer IMHO.

Anyway, looks like we are now making progress :) Woke up happy :)
