NVC always responded after two weeks on all my papers so i hope that i will hear again from them soon about the interview. I will update you on this and yes try to call them on friday and see if they updated your case as well.

FYI

I just called NVC tonight and i have an update: It says that they received my packet and to give them 6 weeks for them to review it. Hopefully it will take less than 6 weeks.

So it took NVC 2 weeks to enter my packet in the system. Now they have to review it.

hi congrats rinitka!
When you checked your case status on the USCIS website when was the last time your case was updated or "touched" before you received your approval?

Yes i called NVC and they said I have to give them at least 4 weeks for them to eneter my case in the system. They said i can call every week just to see if they updated this. I called last night and it still says the same thing. I'll call again next week.

I am waiting for the Correspondence from Nvc , let us see what comes in January bulletin next month

[rinitka]

No need to call USCIS at this point. All of a sudden you might see your Case Approved. I am so lucky , My I130 has been approved in less than 3 months times.

Congrats!

That's ok. Thank you so much for letting me know. I just wanted to have an idea how long it will take. Did you by any chance send your DS-230 to them and they sent an email with the checklist asking for DS-230 because they didn't enter it in the system yet?

I sent my DS-230 on Nov 9(that's when it reached NVC) and then on Nov 15 they sent me a check list email asking for DS-230. Is this because they didn't start looking at my packet?

FYI Visjig,
Sent the ds-230 last month and it is now completed (11/18/2010)interview date is only for the 1st. one more step before I can see my husband.
One advice if you have familly on the 1st i130 and they all shows up when your priority date is up. DO NOT UPGRADE your status after you became citizen as you will have to start the process for the children separately with is more fees.
Just wanted to inform you all as I also benefited from other posts God Bless you all

What was your PD? My DS-230 reached NVC on 11/9/10 and I'm waiting for my case to close.

DS 230 Completed

Let me update you all with my F2A PD July 2008. My petitioner received the Choice of Address and Agent form on 07/06/2010 even though the VB July 2010 is not out yet and VB June 2010 has 01Jan2010 as PD!!!!

So I am guessing that my PD is now already current and they've started to process it. G8 news...............................
