If visa numbers are not yet available for the case or not yet “current”, the NVC will store the file of the case and monitor the priority dates. Once the NVC receives an approved petition from the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), it will enter the case into its system. All legal questions must be referred to the legal team at the Department of State (DOS) Visa Office in Washington, DC. The NVC does not adjudicate cases nor will it answer legal questions on eligibility of the applicants. A visa applicant submits all of the required documents to the NVC and the NVC will check the completeness of the documents and schedule the interview. The National Visa Center (NVC) was created in 1994 to centralize the immigration visa process and allow the US consular offices around the world to concentrate on adjudicating visa applications.
