I have one simple question, what is going to happen if I don't call NVC to get my IL and I will wait to send me email, it is faster to know good news if I call???

It's faster to know the good news if you call. I think the e-mails are forwarded 7 days after interviews have been scheduled. Goodluck with the rest of the process.
