In some cases the NVC simply doesn't contact the couple when the case arrives or leaves there. Email your embassy to make sure, maybe your case is already there? 

Thank you for a good tip.

 

I’m going to wait for the next shipping 11/8. If our case isn’t sent to the embassy, I’ll ask the embassy.

is it possible for a case to be sent straight to your country consular without NVC sending you the case number ??  and if so how do you about it?

Sometimes this happens, but it's rare. You can send an email to the consulate asking if your case is there. It's also valid asking the NVC about your case as well, via their inquiry page.

Yes, email the consulate saying the wac, beneficiary and petitioner names + date of birth and describe your situation. Ask if the case is there.

For anyone whose case was received by the NVC, did you get a case status update from USCIS saying that your case was shipped?

After the NOA2 you may receive an email from the NVC once your case arrives there. 

USCIS doesn't notify us when they send the case, but you can always call them asking for this info.

That's what I thought. My issue is that my case was approved August 18th, and it still has not been shipped by USCIS. I asked a live representative and they said that they are experiencing delays in shipping cases and that I need to wait 90 days after my approval day for them to make a request to the California Service Center to ship it. Complete BS considering that hundreds of cases approved after mine have been shipped.

It's BS, keep calling uscis to ask about it and contact a senator or congressman about this. Mine took 36 days to arrive at the NVC. It's not ideal but it's not the worst.

I'm still waiting USCIS to send my petition to NVC. Received the notice of approval since may 17th. Don't know what to do at this point.

In your NOA2 letter there is a date of expiration. If it's past that, you need to email your consulate asking for a renewal. 

Since it's been so long, you must contact the Ombudsman, it's someone who helps you when USCIS loses cases or delays it for longer than predicted.

Is there a specific letter or format we need to contact them? I see the contact request under my senator and congresswoman's page and I have the Immigration topic selected. I assume just provide the details in the message and ask for them to try and get the USCIS to ship my case?

Just fill their forms and mention your WAC. Usually there's a blank space to briefly comment what's the problem you're facing with a federal agency.
