My wife is awaiting a letter from the NVC to request for paperwork which will then undergo review and then she

Question

will be given her interview date for her immigrant visa in India (Note, I am a US Citizen). Two questions: (1) How long will it take the NVC to issue her a visa number assuming I paid the fees on July 14? (2) What is her expected time to get an interview date with a Consular Office in India? Thanks, Avi

Answer 1

It took me 4 months for the NVC to gave me a case number then they will forward all the papers to the USCIS there are the 1 who's going to check all the papers and if its complete they will set up a appointment for the interview and forward it to the US embassy of your spouse country, it took us 8 months for that. over all we waited for 1 year.
