I asked this question in another thread but didn't get an answer. Maybe someone can answer it here.....does the petitioner have to contact the NVC and embassy to make sure they received the petition or can the benificiary just wait to hear from the embassy? Does getting the case number prior actually speed things up?

I guess that you could wait and see if all is processed correctly by the NVC and interviewing consulate/embassy..... However, should you need to speak with the State Dept. folks about the status of your approved petition, you will need your case number. We followed the advice given in the site's Guide section K-1 flowchart. We did get a letter from the NVC a month or so after our file was sent to consulate, a sort of cross-reference letter. It contained the USCIS receipt number and the corresponding DoS casefile number. Though, there are some folks that have reported that they never received the NVC letter. It is generally recommended that folks contact the NVC and obtain their casefile number.

Good luck on your visa journey.

P.S. What visa are you petitioning for? K-1 or F-1?

Sure, no problem.

The reason for the visa-type question is that you have "F-1" listed on your profile.....

Good luck.
