hi, i was in the same situation as yours, they already upgraded my case form F2A to IR-1. but i had to call them like 3 times and they said that the upgrade process usually takes 2 to 3 weeks but IT ACTUALLY took 2 months and 10 days to upgrade my case. after that they sent me the interviw date in 2 weeks from the date they upgraded my case..my case is in the DOMINICAN REPUBLIC so the waiting time for the interview might be different from your country. NVC starts sending notifications of interview appointments in the first 2 weeks of each months, then they forward the case to the us embassy abroad where the case is assigned to....here's my timetable so you can figure out an estimate for upgrading a case:
MAY 6TH 2012: SENT PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP TO NVC
MAY 10TH 2012: EMAIL RECIEVED SAYING THAT CASE IS UNDER REVIEW
JULY 16TH 2012: CASE UPGRADED
JULY 31TH 2012: INTERVIEW DATE NOTICED
i hope this will help you..and my advise...KEEP CALLING THEM!! i guess that makes them work faster in your case..
