it was 10/09, it went past the 30 days and I had called and they flagged it for a supervisor to look at, then it was approved. Not sure why it took longer than usual.

Which date did you call?

Thanks for the response and lets hope that this will be the last 2 weeks at the NVC. My case has been over a year including the USCIS and NVC process and now I am eagerly waiting for it to be over.

Just got off the phone with NVC. Finally the guy told me that our case is complete...I had to ask him like 3 times because I didn't believe him. Because he said "Well it looks like we have everything

Which date did you call?

I called on the 9th and was told it was day 30 and they would have a supervisor look at it. I called back on Tuesday and was scolded by the operator because she saw the note in the file that I had called the day before. She told me to wait and call again in a few days. This morning I got the 3 NA's.

I guess right now on average it is taking 30 days for them to enter our information and generate a case number, that means we have to wait another 17 days. :clock: :clock: :clock:

Just had a look at your timeline and you are blessed. millions of people would dream of completing the USCIS stage and NVC in 2 months. It's taken us 11 months so far, we don't even have our case number yet and were thanking our luky stars we have made it this far in the average time.

My supervisor review took less than 5 days. A number of persons here took just about the same time to get reviewed

If God takes us to it, He'll bring us through it. He'll never take us where His grace cannot reach and keep us

I was approved on October 2nd and NVC received my case on 19th October (:

We filled out the agent form online.. I just wanted to ask what exactly is the next process after paying AOS and IV fee online?

Our petition was approved on October 18 and sent to NVC on October 28, but NVC still hasn't received it!

I understand it takes a while to generate a case number, but why would it take over two weeks from the time the case was mailed, just to receive it?

I hope our case is just sitting in NVC mailroom, waiting its turn to be entered into the system, and not lost in the mail!

Thanks!

So I just got off the phone with NVC. Again they told us the same thing. That our case is basically complete but they are waiting to generate my electronic file (scanning the documents from USCIS) and that is backlogged and there is no time frame on this. She told me she can give me info on how to submit an expedite request (which I already know how to do). Really don't know what to do at this point. Does anyone know if sending an expedite request is worth it or will it just slow down my case possibly?

I would not recommend anyone to do electronic processing. It was just a mistake.
