I am starting a new thread to track cases from NVC - embassy to GC.
The best news for RN in China, Phillippines and India has been great and informative thread, but I think it is more appropriate and convenient if we start a new thread.
Also with the rapid scheduling of interviews for most of us, I am looking beyond the CP and anticipating the GC!
The August interview schedules are out already in India, and recently in the Philippines and hopefully in China.
Here is my case details
Category : EX Schedule A
USCIS receipt : April 2004
Processing Center : Vermont
I-140 approved : October 2004
NVC case number : MNL2004813XXX
NVC forwarded packet 3 : April 5, 2005
Packet 3 sent back to NVC : May 3, 2005
NVC case completed : May 16, 2005
Consular Interview : August 29, 2005

I hope you can also post here your details interview experience.
About an hour ago, I received an e-mail from USCIS, saying that my case has been approved and an approval notice has been mailed on September 16, 2005.
I know I still have more months of waiting to have an immigrant visa, but for now I'll say I got my left foot forward!!:) :) :p

leah,
congrats!
please share your priority date or notice date and service center where your application was processed...
see, i told you just wait. in fact, it was fast considering that they need additional documents.
you can expect the agent of choice letter with in a month or if the lawyer has already signified in your i-140 petition as the agent, then you will be receiving the visa fee bill.

ray, i think i already signed the choice of agent, is it the form g-28?..i signed it in january together with form eta-750b..
it's a good thing i registered with uscis website to receive notifcations/updates thru e-mail about my case status:p . i texted their staff in manila to inform them that my i-140 was approved already, of course they dont know the latest about my case..i was the first one to know!!!:rotfl:
i want to ask all of you, is it time for me to register to the ca-brn for eligibility to sit for nclex?..
i am starting to review (on my own) suzanne's articles, and some review materials from presc that she left for me (thanks presc!!!)..
Definitely go ahead and register, it usually takes at least four months before you will hear anything from them. You still may want to go for initial licensure in another state, unless you are planning to take the exam when you arrive over here. It can take several weeks for you to get your results, with the others it is only a day or two, and can immedaitely be endorsed to California.

saunder's comprehensive review along with the articles is all that you will need.
I think the CALIFORNIA SERVICE CENTER has really FAST TRACKED the Consular Processing. Just make sure your I-140 approval petition reaches the NVC. There are some cases that were reported to be missing or file was not received by NVC.
By the way do you have dependents? (spouse or kids?)
California right now is about 6 months start to finish for those that are already over here. Those are the latest numbers form the attorneys here that I am in contact with. So it shouldn't be much different for those across the Pacific.:)

leah,
the form g-28 will automatically informed nvc that your agent of choice will be the one who filed your petition. that is your lawyer, you can expect him to receive the visa fee bill with in the month.
DALE: have a hubby and two kids...when should i email NVC to inquire if they received or is processing my papers?
SUZANNE: what edition of Saunders is good..my cousin have been looking over the net and she cant find a 2004 edition (even USED one)..mostly 2001, 1999..

hope wifey's process be as fast as yours.
especially now that the new visa bulletin is out and with a bleak prognosis.
