Rocket Science 🔭

I find it difficult to understand, why after a case for USCIS has been approved...it takes them soooo long to send the files to NVC???? like, I don't get it. AT ALL. Feel free to educate me 🤦🏾‍♂️😣 i-140 approved since Jan 28,2022 with PD Jan 19,2022 status remains at: "Case Was Approved And My Decision Was Emailed" 60+ 🤯

Are we the only ones??

So my wife got her I-140 approved Jan 28, 2022 and her PD is Jan 19,2022. We are yet to receive a welcome letter from the NVC. The status hasn't changed from "Case Was Approved And My Decision Was Emailed". Is this a cause for worry?
