After you got an approval notice, within 3-6 months, you should got a NVC Case number letter from NVC.

Maybe they sent it to a wrong address so you has not yet got it since 3 years ago.

 

You should ask NVC via this inquiry form: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/ask-nvc.html

Fill in all the field: USCIS receipt number, Petitioner name (you), Applicant name and birthdate (your daughter), Your email address. 

 

Check the box "Please update my NVC file with this email address" so they can update your email address into their database.

From now on, they will communicate with you via your email, so you will not miss any letters from them.

Type the question in the comment box:

- What is the status of my case?

- Please provide invoice ID

 

After 2-6 weeks, NVC will reply and let you know about your status as well as your Case number.

They may provide invoice ID, which is a password to access your case online.

If they refuse to provide invoice ID, you can wait for a Welcome Letter, which will be sent when your case is ready for processing.

 

You should check the visa bulletin every month, looking into table B - DATES FOR FILING FAMILY-SPONSORED VISA APPLICATIONS.

When your PD is current in this table, which mean your case is ready for processing, and NVC will send you a Welcome Letter via email.

They will guide you 6 steps including paying fees, submitting DS-260, submitting civil documents and financial documents....

 

After you complete all the steps, you will be in the waiting list for interview.

When your PD is current in table A of visa bulletin, you will get an interview letter.

 

P/S: The waiting time for F2B is 7 years as of now. Maybe 3-4 years later, you will get a Welcome Letter.
