I just want to let everyone know that NVC does send out a notice after petitioner given a case number.

NVC tier 1 officers have no clue of what is going on and I wonder if they have script or manual to follow or what. Prior to receiving my case number, I called maybe 7 or 8 times, and in 5 different times I asked, Do you mail out a notice after the case was assigned a number? All 5 tier 1 told me " NVC does not mail out notice to your home, only to the Embassy where my file will be sent"

How wrong and misinformed they are...My case number was given to me on 7/18...Notice date I have was typed on 7/20 and the post date on the envelope is 7/22. Notice was received on 7/29...

So for member wondering if NVC do mail out notices, in my case yes the did.

I think NVC sending a letter is case dependent. A lot of people don't get letter, but I did. Also, Max, you are a different type of visa, so NVC works it differently. Unlike a K1, NVC gives an IR1/CR1 the interview date

USCIS
4/29/2016 Mailed I-129F
5/16/2016 NOA1
/6/1/2016 Expedite request
6/2/2016 Supporting documentation requested
6/6/2016 Supporting documentation faxed
6/13/2016 Expedite approved
6/14/2016 I-129F approved (via case status, no NOA2)
6/23/2016 NOA2 hardcopy
7/6/2016 Called USCIS, sent approved petition July 1, 2016

NVC
7/8/2016 NVC Received
7/12/2016 Case number and IIN assigned
7/13/2016 Left NVC

Consulate
7/15/2016 Case ready at embassy(wouldn't schedule appointment as package hasn't arrived)
7/18/2016 Case arrived embassy
7/19/2016 Sent packet 3
7/19/2016 Received packet 3

Yes, they send a letter letting you know they received your approved I-129F petition and that it was sent to the consulate. They list your name, case number and consulate location. People have used a copy of this letter in conjunction with other status update info/notices when filing for AOS with a missing NOA2.

People can do an image search on Google and find samples of this NVC notice letter.

They said the same thing for us. That they dont send out NVC letters although NOA2 clearly states that NVC will send out a mail. Anyways, I just hope we get ours. My fiance didnt receive anything just yet.
