Thanks for the great summary, it was really helpful! We got a notice that our case was approved and sent to the NVC on February 18th. Do you know how long it usually takes to get a case ID after that? How about the time it takes to reach the Embassy in my fiancé’s home country? Once it's there, does the Embassy need more time to process it, or can my fiancé just go ahead and submit the DS-160 and book an interview slot right away? Would love some clarification on this.
