Looking at Timelines of late......

[RobertH]

Is it unreasionable for me to think about a possable March interview? Our NOA1 date is Augest 12th.... I dont want to get to excited but 180-195 days from NOA1 to interview is popping up alot.

Look at my timeline, We filed in August, and interview was late Feb early March.

based on current trends, it's not that unreasonable.

 

Realize that if you break the process up into two parts: Petition to P3 Out; P3 Out to Interview, most time changes occur in the first half since the second half needs medicals and scheduling of interview;

 

So, when you get out of NVC, that will be the first best indicator relative to the previous filings; Then P3 Out will be the next indicator. After that, you'll likely follow most of the previous time gap for an interview.

 

Added: Actually, the first best indicator would be NOA2.... but I didn't choose that because NVC has a pesty check that can cause a delay... so my point would be, don't get too amp'ed till you know it leaves NVC.

David,

 

You bring up an interesting point about the NVC check.

Is there a co relation between how long NVC takes and the toughness of the interview?

That is equally interesting... but I'm inclined to say no. NVC is typically, let's say 99.9% of the time very fast to get through; A very few get caught in their 'check'. Those that have did not appear to have a tough interview; the challenge is like any 'check' delay; getting out of it B)

there is an ancient chinese [omen] saying that "A hen shall not crow in the morning!"

 

I'm trying to keep Robert from crowing until out of NVC B)

According to the timelines of the posters here who have participated in it, 180-195 days from NOA1 to interview would be one of the quickest ones. Mid August to Mid-March is approx. 210 days (7 months) and a bit more reasonable, but I wouldn't bet any money on it, (because mine took 453 days...)

 

While it is possible (there was one that completed it in 149 days-5 months), the norm seems to be in the 250-300 days range (over 8 months to 10 months).
