I petitioned my mom and didn't get the second step til after 6 mos. Yours has only been 3 mos.

1. No

2. Yes

That's what my answer was coz I petitioned my mom first.

You can give NVC a call and provide them your email. That way, all the instructions will be sent to you. It emailed NVC before and it took at least 4 days for them to reply.

Email NVCInquiry@state.gov. They usually reply at least after 3 days

Email NVC too from the applicant's email address.

It'll take time for the documents from USCIS to be forwarded to NVC. And since you just had your NOA, I would assume that NVC doesn't have the case yet.

I am so happy for you!

I just wanna say congratulations! We are waiting for my mom's turn. Her interview date is Oct. 7.

Yes,you can use your husband's income as your household income. You will need another sponsor though since you don't meet the requirement and as far as i know, he/she should be filing I-864A

Jasmine05, di ko nga alam eh bat tumagal ng ganon. They told me that their office is piled with too many cases that it's hard for them to catch up. One more thing is that they closed their office many times coz of the snow storms.. i hope tuluy tuloy na this time.

Ok... i finally got my mom's case number. Omg what a relief. I don't know what took so long that i almost lost my patience. I hope it'll be fast now. What are the next step i should expect now? Thank u all

Holy sheep, they JUST now received the case at NVC and it was sent in November? That's a little scary! However if they just received it in Feb, it isn't the fault of the NVC. It is the service center's fault...was it TSC that you were at?

Typically when the case hits the NVC, you have approx. 30 business days to get a case number so unfortunately you are still well within normal processing times at the NVC. Its just such a shame that the service center didn't send your case sooner.

I filed I 130 for my mom. Receipt date is April 19, 2013. Then got approved sometime in November. Then they forwarded my case to NVC. Waited for more than 9 weeks til they told me that they just received the case on feb. 14. I call them every single day. On feb 14, they told me to wait for another 20-30 days to process. Its 20 business days today after feb 14. I gave them a call and the lady told me to wait ATLEAST 20-30 days after feb. 14 when they told me before that rhey're already processing it and should be given a notification WITHIN 20-30 days after feb. 14.. I dont know. I am sad, confused etc.. I think that my case is way off timeframe... pls help
