I believe after NOA2. Like after your case is received by the embassy.

Good luck!

The previous poster is generally correct but every embassy is a little bit different when it comes to the procedures. It is best to ask this question to someone from Canada or their american fiancee that has recently gone thru the embassy interview process.

I (beneficiary) went through Vancouver, and I don't think I ever got anything in the mail--just email.

Beneficiary got NOA2 in the mail and went from there smile.png

Beneficiary (foreign partner) or Petitioner ( US partner)?

The Petitioner should receive the NOA2 as that is a decision based upon the petition filed with USCIS by the petitioner (US partner). The Beneficiary would be notified by the Consulate when the Consulate receive the forwarded approved file from USCIS but in Canada, at least, it is up to the Petitioner to notify the Beneficiary that he/she has received the NOA2. They don't send it to the Beneficiary.

I guess the Consulate now notifies the beneficiary by email. They used to send you a package in the mail, telling you what to do next and sending you the forms.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

.― Lucy Maude Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables
