hi!! i have filed back in july of 2021 and all i get that my case is processing normally. Its getting annoying. Now on the uscis website all it says is 13.5. im tired of waiting

I’m july too I called them they said my case is within processing time and I can submit inquiries in October

that's wat was told to me too but they've been saying that for awhile now. August was when we were to submit any inquiries and now its October. its a lil frustrating

It all depends on your embassy and when they let NVC know that they’re ready for your case.

should I call NVC? my future husband is in the dominican Republic

I believe you can’t call NVC anymore. Right now it’s only through email, so I would say email them.

oh ok sounds good!! I hope I can get some answers

My fiance is also in the Dom Rep, and we're still waiting for the welcome letter, I been sending inquiries every week to see if I get a response from NVC

it is sooo frustrating not knowing anything and it seems like its not moving anywhere

Currently NVC is creating cases for August 2022. You should send an inquiry!

wow so they forget about the ppl in 2021 then?

Marisa, I believe the link Aastha posted is the State Department site. If you haven’t gotten your second Notice of Approval yet, your case is still at USCIS. I imagine you will get approval soon in September 2022 but hopefully sooner. Once it’s done at USCIS, it will be sent to the NVC with a August or September 2022 date (for example) and processed at the link Aastha posted. Hope that clears it up.

m r, it clear it up a lil justvwish it could go faster

@Erwin Lopez, when will your I-797 expire?

Hello @A E, these are my dates ( Valid from 05/21/2022 to 09/20/2022 ), I hope we receive something before the due date.

I been sending inquiries and nothing, Yesterday I sent an expedite hopefully we hear from them soon

@A E.. That’s right, hopefully and soon we will receive good news🙏

Have you sent an expedite?

Hello @ A E. I understand that this does not apply for the k1 fiancé visa

I sent one on Friday and I got a response today, you should send one too since your is about to expire and they are now working on approvals that they received on August 3rd

Hi @ A E. yeah i know, i should try it, your case is also a k1 fiancé visa?? I understand and my concern is that the k1 fiancé visa does not apply to be xpedite, I do not know what to do now, I am confused now

Yes, my case is also a K1, I received my Noa 2 last month, NVC told me that they received my case and once they enter my info they will send me a welcome letter.

@A E. thanks for that information, and how did you do it? what were the steps for xpedite?

You'll need to email them to NVCEXPEDITE@state.gov on the subject line enter your receipt # from USCIS. Start composing your email writing your name along with your DOB telling them that you're the Petioner and than enter your fiancee name with the DOB and tell them that he or she is the Applicant. Explain them the situation that your case was approved back in May and you still received the Welcome letter and that the approval from USCIS will expire on Sep. make sure you attach a copy of your I-797 Notice.

@A E. thank you so much for sharing this info 🙏

Email NVC AND CALL USCIS.
