Call the National Visa Center and get you case number , it takes about 30days for USCIS to send the case to NVC and about 2/3weeks for the NVC to send the paperwork to Kiev ,this is based on my experience.

If you were approved on 9th January 2014, you should wait aproximately 3-4 weeks and call NVC to get case number that starts with KEV.

When NVC has your case they forward it to the Consulate quite fast, when you have your KEV number you can check your case status on caec.state.gov and see if it is "in transit" - means on it's way to Kiev. (Usually they deliver in 3-5 days).

When you see on caec "Ready" - means its ready for the interview so you do the rest of steps.

You can also send an e-mail at: KyivIV@state.gov - in the Subject put KEV number and in the letter you can ask them if your case is at consular department (in letter you better Incidate your receipt number,

beneficiary's and petitioner's names),
