APPROVED!!! :dance: :dance: :dance: :dance:

i can't figure out how to update my timeline..... :help:

does anyone know how long nvc takes now?????

Still need help with the timeline edit? Click "Immigration timelines" at the top of the page and then under Timeline Functions click Edit / Add My entry. We are eager to see your approval show up in the VSC stats! :)

VSC normally takes approximately a week to get the petition to NVC. NVC usually takes approximately another week to send the package to the embassy. There is an occasional petition that takes longer than that, but it is rare.

That really stinks. I have no idea why they would have transferred your petition.

If you have not already done so, I suggest that you also contact the ombudsman and give him the specifics of your situation and your case number. I think he might be able to help you. His email is cisombudsman@dhs.gov

Hey Zizzyb, stop celebrating for a minute and update your timeline! :bonk:

The pace so far this month has been fantastic. If it continues, November will be the most productive month of the year. So far March has the most approvals with 40 followed by January with 36 and then April and May with 28 each. November has already surpassed the other 6 months.

Come on VSC, keep it up! :dancing:

One word of caution though. VSC has a big backlog to work through. I will do the summary stats later so that we can see the impact of the November pace on processing times.

I think they will keep the pace up...for now. They are close to the 6 month service levels. CSC is showing April as their current service time (oldest petition left?? as of last update) But i do think that VSC had cranked out a lot of the receipting work from the work visas and I485's. They were to complete that by end of October...so Im thinking the adjudicators are freed up to blast through the family visas. I just wish they had communicated some of the information they recently communicated a few months earlier than they did. They knew they had a backlog, communication should have been much better. Still a broken process...but we are moving...yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
