@kalpana devi On May 17, at 2 p.m., I found the approval notice in the document section, and on May 19, the USCIS account was changed to case is approved. I believe we will get the welcome letter tomorrow or Friday at the latest. Please let me know when you received it, and I will notify you when I receive it.

@kalid jamma sure
Amy NguyenMay 22, 2025
@kalpana devi Once again, we’re on the same boat! 🤣🤣🤣 I got approved on May 19.
kalpana deviMay 22, 2025
@Amy Nguyen Highfive 😂😂😂 another step another storm ⛈️
kalpana deviMay 22, 2025
@kalid jamma Any updates??? maybe we got the weekend officers to do our cases @Amy Nguyen right amy??😂😂 we three are on the same boat
kalpana deviMay 22, 2025
@amritpal kaur have you got your approval letter from nvc too??
amritpal kaurMay 22, 2025
yes
amritpal kaurMay 22, 2025
i already paid my fees and onto the ds-260 step now
kalid jammaMay 22, 2025
@kalpana devi 4:15 pm EDT I received email and text message that action has been taken on my case, I login my account and I see they transferred my case to department of state. I hope the welcome letter follows it.
kalid jammaMay 22, 2025
@amritpal kaur when did you receive the NVC welcome letter.
kalpana deviMay 22, 2025
@kalid jamma I have received the same ..finally it was sent to department
kalpana deviMay 23, 2025
@amritpal kaur that’s really quick
Amy NguyenMay 23, 2025
@kalid jamma Exactly, my friend. I feel like we always face more difficulties than others. Some of my friends received their welcome letter just 3 days after approval and finished everything within 10 days. Their priority date is May 25, 2024, and now they’re completely done — just waiting for the interview.
kalpana deviMay 23, 2025
@Amy Nguyen we only got our case transferred thats it.. now again waiting for welcome letter
Amy NguyenMay 23, 2025
@kalpana devi They probably transferred our cases because they got too tired of us. Now we don’t even know where our files are drifting anymore.
kalpana deviMay 23, 2025
@kalid jamma got welcome letter
kalid jammaMay 23, 2025
@kalpana devi I got it roughly 4 hours ago. I paid the fee and will see how long it takes to process.
Amy NguyenMay 23, 2025
@kalpana devi Hey, I just got an email saying that my case has been transferred to the NVC. Have you received yours yet?
kalpana deviMay 24, 2025
@Amy Nguyen hey, I got it yesterday.. we paid the fees and the application is ready to submit.. today we gonna fill out forms and submit it but I still haven’t got my pcc yet idk what to do
Amy NguyenMay 24, 2025
@kalpana devi I just finished paying the fees 5 hours ago, and now I’m back to waiting again. 🤣
kalpana deviMay 24, 2025
@Amy Nguyen gonna wait till Monday 🫨😂
Amy NguyenMay 25, 2025
@kalpana devi We’ll have to wait until Tuesday, because Monday is a holiday, my friend.
kalpana deviMay 27, 2025
@Amy Nguyen any updates????
Amy NguyenMay 28, 2025
@kalpana devi not yet 😅😅
Amy NguyenMay 28, 2025
@kalpana devi Have you finished everything with NVC yet? I still haven’t been able to access the DS-260 form.
kalpana deviMay 28, 2025
@Amy Nguyen same here amy…. the fees was paid last Friday but still the status is in process.. to be able to access it should be “paid”
Amy NguyenMay 29, 2025
@kalpana devi How many more days will it take? It’s been 10 days since the approval, and all we’ve done is wait, wait, and wait.
kalpana deviMay 30, 2025
@Amy Nguyen hey, just got a confirmation to start the form…. you may get it by tomorrow
kalpana deviMay 30, 2025
@Amy Nguyen This time they changed a little thing about the form, we need to add our qualifications too…
Amy NguyenMay 30, 2025
@kalpana devi I’ve completed everything, now I just have to wait for the interview letter.
kalpana deviMay 30, 2025
@Amy Nguyen that’s great going🥳🥳 I’m stuck with my police report 😢.. hopefully it will arrive within this week
kalpana deviMay 30, 2025
@Amy Nguyen Do you know how much time do they take to review the forms and send an IL ??
Amy NguyenJun 1, 2025
@kalpana devi After completing everything, NVC usually takes about 10 to 15 days to send us the completion email. Have you finished everything yet? I’m still stuck on the I-864 because I haven’t printed it out to sign by hand yet.
kalpana deviJun 1, 2025
@Amy Nguyen do we need to get it sign?? No Im still stuck with the police report
kalpana deviJun 1, 2025
@Amy Nguyen already completed everything just waiting for the report to come and we gonna upload everything together
Amy NguyenJun 2, 2025
@kalpana devi I haven’t finished yet, my friend. I’ll probably get it done today. How long do we have to wait, my friend?
kalpana deviJun 3, 2025
@Amy Nguyen by tomorrow im gonna get my police report and then after I will get it submitted
kalpana deviJun 3, 2025
@Amy Nguyen I really hope we will get our interview done after two months
Amy NguyenJun 3, 2025
@kalpana devi In our country, it takes about 2 months just to get an interview appointment, and another 2 months to actually have the interview. I think it will take at least 4 months, my friend.
kalpana deviJun 5, 2025
@Amy Nguyen for us it takes around 2months to get our interview done after dq
Amy NguyenJun 7, 2025
@kalpana devi How is your case going? I’m still waiting for DQ. Everything is just a waiting game. After DQ, it took us another 4 months to finally complete the interview.
kalpana deviJun 8, 2025
@Amy Nguyen same here, it’s been four days since we have submitted our documents now again in a queue for dq😂
Amy NguyenJun 13, 2025
@kalpana devi Hey, have you received your Case Complete yet?
kalpana deviJun 14, 2025
@Amy Nguyen noo🥲 what’s about you?
Amy NguyenJun 17, 2025
@kalpana devi Have you received your Case Complete yet? I got an RFE for basic documents. I had everything fully prepared, but the lawyer forgot to upload the marriage certificate. So ridiculous!
kalpana deviJun 18, 2025
@Amy Nguyen yes I have been dqed and now waiting for IL.. what’s wrong with that lawyer, he had one job to do and still didn’t get the things done.. don’t worry amy give sometime they gonna respond you back soon
Amy NguyenJun 18, 2025
@kalpana devi What do you mean by “got rejected”? As for me, I stopped relying on the lawyer and uploaded everything by myself. They were way too careless with something so important to us.
kalpana deviJun 18, 2025
@Amy Nguyen its really sad to hear that.. u need to re upload the missing documents and submit it .. I really hope they gonna respond you soon
kalpana deviJun 25, 2025
@Amy Nguyen have you got dqed???
Amy NguyenJun 29, 2025
@kalpana devi Oh, I didn’t get rejected — I just had to submit additional documents because the lawyer didn’t upload the marriage certificate. How is your case going? I’ve already submitted the missing document 10 days ago, and now I’m waiting for Case Complete.
kalpana deviJun 29, 2025
@Amy Nguyen lining in the queue again for interview letter 🥲 you gonna get dq soon , it probably takes 12days for check up everything
Amy NguyenJun 30, 2025
@kalpana devi It will probably take a few more days for me to get DQ. I’m honestly very disappointed with the lawyer.
kalpana deviJun 30, 2025
@Amy Nguyen hopefully soon☺️
