My I-130 was approved June 17, uscis said they mailed out NOA2 notice to my foreign address next day which i have never received to date.

However my case file has been shipped to NVC, ive paid the IV and AOS fee and sent their packets to NVC too.I also received the ds 3032 at my foreign address.

Should i be concerned in getting the actual NOA2 letter by calling uscis? i do have an email(case status update) from uscis when it was approved and later the next day shipped to NVC / DOS for visa processing.

i am just wondering coz i have seen some people mention if there are issues at nvc stage you need to scan and send the NOA2 notice letter, i however did not have any issues yet.

or i dont need to be concerned since i am already past the initial stage?

or i dont need to be concerned since i am already past the initial stage? If you already paid your NVC fees why be so concerned about the NOA2
