Wait for the National Visa Center (NVC) to contact you about paying the fees for the DS-230 and I-864. That letter will also inform you what you need to do after paying the fees.

Don't wait for them to contact you. That will take forever! As Louise&Venice said, the next step is to get your case number from NVC. The trend now is that they are taking about 30 days to assign a case number. Give it 1 or 2 weeks before you start calling the NVC hotline.

While you wait, here are some guides to help get you started on the next step. It's helpful to get all the documents ready as things do start moving fairly quickly once you get your NVC case number.
