adambchildress Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 does anyone have an idea how long it takes for the back ground check to be completed before the paperwork is sent to Hong Kong Link to comment
frank1538 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 A couple of weeks to a couple of years. Sorry, it's very difficult to estimate - too many variables. If I were a betting man, I'd say start calling them in 4 - 6 weeks. Unless things have changed, you probably won't know when they're done unless you ask them or you get your P3. Link to comment
Guest Gene Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I called the NVC once a week until they told me it was completed and sent to the Consulate. Like frank said to many variables, the majority make it through in the 4 to 6 week time frame, and every once in a while someone gets stuck in "Name Check Hell" Good Luck Link to comment
pkfops Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 You have entered the infamous "Black Hole". Could be a short ride or a long one. This step doesn't have much of an average. Give it a month or two then inquire about you case via email. Link to comment
philb Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Unfortunately, I will tilt the duration to the long side.NVC says that my application has been selected for "secondary background check of beneficiary" - sent to Washinton D.C. to "the Agency". It has now been 4 months in this black hole. It sure is bleak down here, Phil Link to comment
vibes1313 Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 Sorry to hear that Phil. After we received the NOA2, I kept an eye on nooneufos invaluable timeline that proved to be amazingly accurate. It kept me from even thinking about the background check. Link to comment
