I just got our case # from NVC. The operator told me that they just entered our case into the system today and no invoice # was available yet, so I wouldn't be able to send payment or documents yet until they contacted us by email. My question is, should I contact the US interest section in Havana to make an appointment for my husband now? I have read on here in previous post that the Cuban interest section takes a long time to issue appointments but the woman on the phone at NVC told me that I would have to wait until the packets were sent out to me and that NVC would be the one responsible for making an interview in Hav. I don't know if I should leave it up to the NVC or try myself??

First things first, wait a few days and call back to ask for the numbers again. Once you have those, you can start paying the NVC fees and filling out the information required by packet 3. You won't be able to make any appointments at this point, and the Cuban section won't even have received anything related to your case until NVC processes it.
