Thank you so much for the helpful replies!

I wasn't expecting such a quick reply, thank you.

Visa category is FB-1. Priority date is March 30, 2012.

I checked table B and February 8, 2012 is current. Does that mean I have to wait approximately one month?

 

So we just received a Notice of Immigrant Visa Case Creation email which directed me to create an account at the CEAC website. After I logged in with my NVC case number and invoice ID number, this is displayed under the Summary Information section of the site:
 

Quote

Due to the numerical limitations on immigrant visa issuance prescribed by law, this petition is not eligible for further processing at this time. The National Visa Center (NVC) will retain the petition until an immigrant visa becomes available. The NVC will notify the petitioner, principal applicant, or attorney of record when this petition is eligible for further processing.

The Fees tab is currently grayed out.

Is this normal? How long should I expect to wait for the status to change so I can send pay the fees and submit the documents required? Any help would be appreciated as I'm entirely new to this.
