Quick question: after receiving P4 when does (assuming it will) CEAC update to say "in transit" or "at embassy"? Received our interview dates for both cases on 4/28. Both cases will interview on 6/12. Both still say "At NVC".

Anyone?

NVC sends them out in batches, so it might be a little while before it says 'in transit' and then 'ready.' It'll get there soon enough though!! :)
