Me and my fiancé are beyond happy! our case was received when he called today. Hope it will be faster now. @Lilly2302 thank you and to everyone. Will keep you posted.

FINALLY...  NOA2!!!!!!
 
I contacted the Ombudsman and the next week it was approved!!  
 
God is so gracious in carrying us through!

Just thought I'd share my experience last night with the NVC.
 
Our NOA2 was received 12/1/17 (valid 11/30/17 through 3/29/18). Since it's been almost 2 months, I decided to give NVC a call myself despite the conflicting reviews from different people ranging from super helpful, to not very helpful at all.
 
I called around 6:19pm local time (Eastern). When I called, I selected the option from the automated menu for confirming if a case was received (I forget which numerical option that was). I spoke to a gentleman by the name of Hank who was not only very polite and friendly, but very quick with information and very helpful. If we got call surveys for these people, he'd have gotten all 5s.
 
I told him our NOA2 date and receipt number (I also had to provide both mine and my fiancé's full names, as the petitioner/USC, and also provide my fiancé/beneficiary's DOB). I explained that it's been over a month and a half now, and with our expiration date of 3/29/18 and medical requirements/interview still needing to be done, we were getting a bit anxious that we hadn't heard anything yet. As soon as I gave him this information (he must have been pulling us up while I was giving him my spiel), he said "Oh, we just received your papers yesterday! (1/17) It will be mailed to the embassy in Stockholm, which will take about 1 to 2 weeks."
 
I asked him if Paul would be able to go ahead with his medical requirements and see about scheduling an interview. He was honest and said he wasn't sure about the medical requirements, since it varies by country, but that the beneficiary should wait until he receives the paperwork from the embassy, which will be sent to him once they receive our information in Stockholm. These papers will contain information about his interview, so he should wait until he receives that.
 
He also provided me with our case number and an invoice number, which it's my understanding (in some countries), the beneficiary can go ahead with completing any required vaccinations, physicals, etc. as long as they have the case number from the NVC.
 
I'm not sure if I called at a good time of day, or the stars were just aligned well. Perhaps they weren't that busy that late in the evening (I didn't have to hold for a representative at all).
 
Good luck to all still waiting and trying to get information from the NVC! I hope anyone else who tries to give them a call will also have a pretty helpful convo. Ask for Hank maybe? Not sure if you can do that with the NVC or not.
 

Finally!! After 66 days, as of today Im at NVC.
 
Thanks @Paul & Mallory i did option 3 and got the good news.

I received a case number today finally !!! They are still making the electronic files. 
Do you think guys it is still possible to schedule the embassy and doctor appointments yet? 
What is the website to track the status of a case number?
Thanks.

Lol. I'm happy for you. You're almost there. All the best!

Ah ok sorry. Like I said mine was mailed same week and we are ready since today lol

I definitely will. And oh, it was mailed on the 9th. Praying for the best!👍

if it was mailed the 8 it will be.
 
keep us posted  

Praying for that so much!🙆

Case just changed to READY!!!!

Hello everyone! Would just like to ask how long it might take for the NVC to receive the approved petition from the USCIS. My fiancé called the USCIS yesterday and told him that our file was sent to NVC last Jan 09 and called NVC and said they don't have it yet.
 
Thank you!

Holy hell everyone...
After 260 days on NOA1, we just got our NOA2 - Just in time for Christmas! <3 <3 <3 

Monica woke me up this morning with the greatest news.  2Go has her Visa and she is going to pick it up tomorrow morning and be able to fly to the US either tomorrow night or Saturday morning depending on what ticket I can get her.
 
I AM THE HAPPIEST MAN IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

Well Today is a much happier day than I have had in awhile.  Last night before going to bed on a lark I decided to check the CEAC site and guess what?
 

 
Now we just have to wait for VOH and she can come!!!  I am so excited.  It is finally becoming real.

Good day to all! Beneficiary here. FYI, this account is common account of me and my fiance.
 
Anyway, 229 days of waiting and finally got approved without any RFE at all. So cheer up guys, it will come no matter how long. Just pray and don't loose hope.
