I have relative with Priority date of March 2016 received "Documentary Complete", awaiting appointment availability at Cairo Embassy , anyone with similar situation? what does documentary complete means?

here is the message we've been receiving

" This notice is to inform you that your case for an immigrant visa is documentarily complete at the National Visa Center (NVC) and has been since 15-Dec-2021.  NVC has received all of the fees, forms and documents required prior to attending an immigrant visa interview. Your petition is awaiting an interview appointment. At this time, no further action is required.  We appreciate your patience.

Your case will remain at NVC until an appointment is scheduled, at which time we will send it to the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate General.  We will notify the applicant, petitioner, and attorney (if applicable) when an appointment is scheduled.

The U.S. Embassy or Consulate tells NVC which dates they are holding interviews. NVC fills these appointments on a first-in, first-out basis and is unable to predict when an interview will be scheduled."

Your success during this immigration process depends on reading accurately, interpreting literally, and responding completely and honestly.
