Interview notification time in Colombia

[Bob44 12]

Hi there. I’ve tried to get answers to this via the forum and elsewhere to no avail. 
 

We had to switch our application to consular filing in Bogota two months after originally filing in the US. We had to care for my wife’s dying (now deceased) father.

 

We are five months into the process and used a US lawyer. 
 

I am trying to find benchmarks for dates as we are renting out our house etc and trying not to have to sit by the phone waiting for our interview. 
 

What exact things will we be notified of? Will we get notification once the case is approved and sent down here and how much notice will we get before our interview date? Weeks? Months? Days? 
 

Will we receive ANY other notifications?

 

Thanks!

When did you file the I-130?  For I-130 processing estimates, check here -- https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/

 

If you didn't notify USCIS of the beneficiary's change of address, there's a good chance you will get a notice to file an I-824 to transfer the approved I-130 to NVC.  The I-824 will add around a year or so to the process after I-130 approval.

We filed end of June and we notified USCIS end of Aug thru our attorney before we left the country.
