That was a Temporary Problem And No NVC is not effected with Gov Shutdown. Don't worry. They are working. If they were shut down, they wouldn't pick up your phone (if you called NVC recently after shut down? I did)

Congrats 🍾

Trump declared 24 and 25 as holiday for all federal employees,it will open on Wednesday. You were lucky you got ur case number sooner now its taking 7-8 weeks

So its Bombay. Yes its normal. Even if you submit AOS and then email other documents it will still say that until case close. It takes 10 to 14 days for case close. After Case close, You will receive email from NVC that it will work with Bombay Consulate to schedule interview and CEAC screen changes to this:

It depends what country case is that. For me I had to submit AOS online. However for other docs I had 2 options Email or mail. We chose email as its fastest. And now my case is close. But still NVC site doesn’t show anything submitted lol. I didn’t even had options to upload documents. So I can’t answer that question. 
Its explained here when you scroll down: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/collect-and-submit-forms-and-documents-to-the-nvc/step-6-submit-documents-to-the-nvc.html

For me it took 13 days. Average time is 10 - 14 as per my observation after looking at other’s time lines. 

Congrats man, yes your case is closed. I am still waiting for my case number ,let us know when they provide you the interview date just to get an idea how much time mumbai consulate is taking for appointments.

Lets keep each others updated. 

Mine is same as yours. I submitted all the documents on Dec 7 by online and still waiting for their review.

Expect Case number this Monday!

i completely agree, it won't be too long!

Just Christmas and New Years. NVC is a US Federal Agency. They are only closed on US Federal holidays. 

Took about 5 weeks for me 

So we (My Lawyer) uploaded ds 201 on Dec 7 and emailed other documents. Fee was paid on Dec 4. Just Spoke to My Lawyer. He said I
should expect Interview Letter by end of Dec and Interview in First Week of Feb (Approx). Can’t wait

Don’t stay silent guys lol  post some updates. That gives hope to others. 

Congratulations

They received mine on Oct 25 and I Got Case Number on Dec 3. They are on Oct 27-28 I guess from above posts. But again they are unpredictable. Some lucky people get their case numbers in less than a month, for some it takes 5 weeks. 

Lol
its just about time. There was that time when even USCIS didn’t approved our case yet. Finally good news came. Now I Look and my wife look back all this time. We talk how we spent so many months living away. But finally things are moving and bit faster now. 
Here’s my timeline so far: 
USCIS Recieved/ Approved: March 16 2018/ Oct 15 2018
USCIS Send/ NVC Recieved: Oct 17 2018/ Oct 25 2018
NVC Case Number Generated: Dec 3 2018
AOS/ IV fee paid: Dec 4 2018
Now waiting lol 
 

after soooooo many days I felt this happy. I hope everybody gets their case and interview as soon as possible. Damn a Super Dose of Happyness
