A screen shot of the case in the ready status is good enough for the Medical. Same thing with the NVC Case letter, a copy is just fine. When my fiancee went to interview they did ask for NVC Case letter. I scanned and sent it to her and that's what she provided to the embassy. I'm sure a screen shot of the CEAC status will work as well.
Don't call that early. I have yet to see anyone get their case # that quickly. Plan on 2.5 to 3 weeks. Call the 0888 number and just press 1
When you get case # go to BPI and pay. Wait 4 hours and schedule interview for at least 3 weeks out from when you received case from NVC. Schedule medical and fill out DS-160. All you need for medical is the Appointment Confirmation letter for the interview.
Eventually you will get the NVC Case Letter in the mail to the petitioner and you can scan that and send that to the beneficiary. That will be needed for interview.
You get the medical results handed to you in a sealed envelope when you are done and you bring that to the interview as well as the other stuff, CENOMAR, NBI Clearance, Birth Certificate, Passport etc etc
Start watching your case status here about a day after receiving case #
https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx
It will go to In Transit to Ready and will state your case is ready for interview...blah blah blah
That should happen within 3-5 days.
Since they give you the results at the end of the medical, you can do that any time.
Interview is really easy as long as you are confident and can prove you are genuinely in love and passionate about this.
The Philippines process is really in your control once you have the case #. It's nice!
