Case Processing
NVC
Hey Guys! I'd like for anyone to share how long it took to receive the NVC welcome letter once their case status updated to "sent to Department of State". I'm not finding much info on this via internet searches and thought I'd gain insight if people share their timelines/experiences. Also, after receiving the welcome letter, how long did it take to get DQ status?

Just Venting
I am just venting about my spouse in a place I know that he cannot see. So, our case was approved one year ago in May 2024 after waiting two years for the I-130 to be accepted. I immediately submitted all of my NVC documentation, however my husband screwed around for months getting his documents ready. Every time I’d check, which was weekly, he’d have some excuse. Because of his laziness, he didn’t submit all of his required documents until April 2025!! Nearly one whole year!! We just got DQ on May 5 for Montreal and of course we’re going to have to wait at least another 4 months for an interview date. After this is all said and done, it’ll have been a four year process. Am I wrong for being angry at him? I’ve never told him this either because what’s the point? I’m just tired of my life being on hold because of him.
