I'm going to buy another guitar today. cope with this "at nvc" for over a week....

When we got the case number my attorney went ahead and did the DS-160 even though I'm still "at nvc" so yeah if you got a case number you can do that form

I wish I had the problem...I'm still stuck at the sh!tty at nvc stage

according to my lawyer, all NVC does is prepare the file and send to the embassy. Checks are done at USCIS which is why it takes so long to go from NOA1 to NOA2

our luck, snow storm last week , snow storm this week,,,,,,come on spring!!!! no more delays!!

lately its been 2 weeks (14 days) from NOA2 to NVC case number. Mine was eactly 14 days and so were many other Feb Noa2 peeps. I would begin calling 14 days after the date on the NOA2 letter. Then everyday after that after 5pm eastern time.

when you call USCIS I think I heard the agent say "Thank you for calling RFE City how can I help you?" this is beyond ridiculous

May to Aug is longer, overall K1 process is longer now than it was from 2016 to late summer 2017

Two weeks before sending in my petition the average time from noa1 to noa2 was 3 to 4 months, the minute I got my NOA1 the serious backlog happened and pushed it to average of 6 months. 180-220 days is now the expected future processing times. Which is current processing times still. This is also due to the new guidelines handed down to USCIS.

hey peeps....The NOA2 letter WILL show page count in the window ABOVE your name and address if it shows 1 OF 1 then its your NOA2!!!!!!!!!!!!

Backlog probably due to spring and summer petitions , people use those months to travel more. Thus heading to meet their loves and returning to file the petition. Creating high amounts of applications, last may,june, july and august was large amounts of received petitions.
While Sept, Oct, Nov and Dec 2016 Noa1's were getting NOA2's within 1-4 months vs the now 6+ months
 
BTW, Aug NOA1 - Feb NOA2 = 194 Days

USCIS mails the petition to NVC , this is done by post office snail mail. NOT ELECTRONICALLY as many think or believe. ITS MAIL TRUCK.

Good luck marchers!!! stick with it! DONT LET THE STRESS GET TO YOU! BUY A PS4 IF YOU HAVE TO, I DID!
so in about 190-210 days we will start seeing NOA2's posted here. Its a long wait but when you get the NOA2 its fast after that.

mine still says "at nvc" also does everyone have this in small print under "at nvc"?
  Please follow the instructions you received from the National Visa Center (NVC) that list the six steps you must take before NVC can schedule your visa interview appointment.

snowstorm shutting down the NVC, another snowball thrown at us lol
could be that they will be closed to Monday, snowstorm tonight and tomorrow until 1pm , then roads messy for Thursday and some will probably not go in on Friday and wait to return to work Monday, so this has a snowball effect (pun intended)
