I received the approval letter today (dated March 30). I have a question about a statement in the notice.

It reads " The above petition has been approved, and forwarded to the listed consulate. Please contact the consulate with any questions about visa issuance, or if you would like them to forward the petition to a different consulate."

Shouldn't it go to the NVC first, or is my case different because I have a congressional expedite? Nowhere in the letter does it mention the NVC.

Any thoughts?

Standard boiler plate, USCIS is simply keeping the wording simple, they neglect to indicate it is being sent to NVC first, and NVC takes care of sending on to consulate.

Since there is no interaction between petitioner and beneficiary and the NVC, for all intents USCIS is sending it on to the consulate "through" NVC.

That is pretty much what I thought as well. I was just checking to make sure. Thanks.
