You should if she's submitting forms, nothing can be done at NVC with out those numbers. Call NVC,603-334-0700 give them your case number from USCIS, after they ask some questions to verify who you are, they'll give you your MTL number and invoice identification number. Also ask for the Beneficiary ID number.

After you have those numbers log on to the site I linked for you before. Fill out your DS-260 if it's available.

Has she paid any invoices yet that you know of?

We didnt get any notices only the NOA2 because i registered....I think they all get sent to the lawyer and she has made 2 payments on the 3rd so she was waiting then filing our packet thats all i know....but i am waiting to hear from there office right now...
