Case Was Sent To The Department of State

On October 12, 2017, we sent your case, Receipt Number *****, to the Department of State for visa processing. You can check the status of your case at the National Visa Center after six weeks from the above date by visiting www.nvc.state.gov. You can find general information on Consular Processing by visiting our website at www.uscis.gov . 

 

You can give them a call after 2 weeks for case number
