Hello friend thanks you everyone who replied to my first question. Happy Christmas and prosperous new year in advance. 
Question: After the noa2 how long does it take to get to the interview stage? How many months will it take to get to the last step of this journey?

From what I’ve read and researched, it takes about 3-5 weeks for your documents to be put into the NVC, then it takes however much time it takes for you to get required documentation (police certificate, marriage records, birth records, divorce decrees/death certificates/prison records (if applicable).

 

after that I’ve read it could take 1-2 months for those to be reviewed, and then another 3-6 weeks until that’s sent to the consulate so you can finally schedule an interview which wait time depends on the consulates workload and you’ll need to procure a medical exam after you schedule your interview and before you attend it (for me anyway, some consulates do things differently) 

 

So all in all maybe another 2-5 months? I’m not fully sure, maybe someone else knows better and has experience. I was lucky enough to DCF.
