this is only based on my experience, after my 129f got approved, my fiancé sent me a copy. got my Nvc letter. did my medical , pay the visa cost, set an interview appointment in the embassy, attend to that interview and wait for your visa to deliver if you are approved.

how long did that take after approval 🤔 gen christian

8 months

I got approved 8 months and then the visa medical, and interview is it’s up to you. we applied january then got approved august and then after that I managed everything for 1 month the visa cost, medical and interview. In the Philippines , you are the one who will set the interview date and medical appointments. I got my fiancé visa 1 week after my interview.

@gen how did you schedule for the medical

it was online, you need nvc number for it.

we got approved three days ago so I’m waiting for the approval letter tho but I don’t know what to do after the approved letter

when my fiancé got the approval letter they sent the nvc number as well to him and one for me. but in the Philippines everything is kinda slow. I call the uscis and they said I don’t need to wait for my nvc letter copy as long as my husband know my nvc number. I need the nvc number to start the process

my nvc letter arrived very late. I finished all the steps before I got my copy.

can I ask you question

yes

does the approved letter different from the one Nvc letter pls

because they said they will send us a approved letter

yes. it’s different. the approved letter was the petition is granted , then they will send the petition documents to nvc (embassy of usa in your beneficiary country) then they will send you nvc number with barcode on it.

one more question how long does it take before nvc send out the approved

nvc letter dated one month after we got approved and then the process begin. if everything in your beneficiary’s part is ok, everything will be done with in a month,

thanks for ur time

where can i call to find out nvc number. and how soon after approval can i call to find that out?. thank you gen christian

I think I called them 1 month of waiting. I don’t remember if you need you nvc number to your dS-160 form,.
