Thank you for clarifying the difference in the processes!

Hi! My Father-in-Law's application was approved by the NVC and we believe it's in the queue to be sent to the consulate in Manila for appointment scheduling. NVC informed her mid April that this was the next step. So far, radio silence. So, I have a few questions that I hope you can help us with! First, what is a typical, current, timeline from NVC approval to scheduling? Second, I remember scheduling my wife's appointment after receiving the MNL case number to speed up the process from the typical scheduling timeline. We've created an account to TRY, but so far no luck. The message keeps saying there is no case# currently at the consulate. Is this "work a around" still a thing or do we HAVE to wait for them to schedule? Third, I know they do not send out any "snail mail" to us regarding the scheduling, but do they send both the applicant and petitioner an email saying they scheduled the interview appointment? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you! Mike
