Once the I-129F petition is approved at the USCIS, it goes to the National Visa center... but does the National visa center have to approve it too, or they just assign a case number and send it to an embassy abroad?

NVC does not do any approval... they will assign a case number, do a name check and when cleared, they will forward

YMMV

Another question... how long does it take for NVC to send a letter informing about the case number assigned and consulate it is sent to?

could be a couple weeks, sometimes less sometimes more

But, once you get NOA-2, you can call NVC and get your case #.

I called but they said they haven't received it... they said call 2 weeks after your NOA2... and you asked about the packet 3... once the NVC sends the petition to the assigned consulate, your fiance should be getting packet 3, 1 week after the consulate receives your petition but the time varies according to the volume of cases

Nana,

Our petition was approved on the same date May 31 and I have been calling the NVC as well and they don't have my case either. I was told to try back on Friday (tomorrow) I hope they go ahead andf get my case to the embassy.

really? I called the USCIS today and I said I got my notice of approval, and they said once you get the notice of approval, the petition is no longer at the service centers, it is at the National Visa Center... and when I called up the automated machine today, I put in my receipt number and there was no case thus far. I spoke to an operator yesterday and they said to call back 2 weeks after the NOA2. I'm going to wait a few more days, and if nothing happens I'll call them again.

What exactly would they check on the beneficiary?
