Same! Case number assigned 13 June and hoping it ships next week to consulate. For now it just says « at NVC »
 

baby steps but onwards we go! Good luck everyone!

How did you get the case number, was this just by public enquiry or email, or did you receive a letter?

It was a response to the public inquiry. Haven’t gotten any welcome email but I think I read that they don’t always send one…

how long does the case number gets generated after NVC receives the petition? NVC notified me they received the petition 6/6/23 but still waiting for entry into their systems.

Pretty sure you should get it by the end of the month, possibly this week.

Mine was shipped from USCIS to NVC on 5/22.  My case number date at NVC was June 14.  So, 3 weeks.

Hi guys - I sent in an inquiry that said "USCIS approved my i129f on March 31, 2023. I would like to know if you have received my application from USCIS and if there is any information about when I will receive a case number."

This is the reply I got: 

"To Whom it Concerns:

 You will be notified once this case is forwarded to the assigned US Embassy/Consulate General."

 

Does this mean they received it??

Weird how we have the same shipping date and NVC still claims they haven't received our case.

Congratulations! I got the same email on June 8th that it was sent to Ankara. I've heard it takes about 14-17 days for it to be received by the embassy in Ankara. Good luck

Thanks very much.   got couple of questions as you are ahead in the process. 

Have you sent an email to Ankara Embassy to notify them that the case has been transferred to Ankara?

Has the beneficiary filled up the visa application? or you are waiting to hear back from embassy to do so?
