Not great. I'm a little depressed as I was supposed to be having my interview today in half an hour from now but it was cancelled of course. 

This was expected. Throughly disappointing but not surprising. The surprise would have been continuing in person services in these circumstances.

You go to the US, get married,  get your social security number and file your AOS. There are guides to help you along with SSN and AOS. Blue ribbon at the top of the page and select guides.

Today is a big day for some as your case file may ship out to your embassy. Check CEAC for updated progress and look for "in transit"!! If that shows you are on your way. Shipments are throughout today and tomorrow so don't get discourage if your record at CEAC has not changed over to "in transit” Also, for those who want to have a little fun in tracking your shipment see the DHL hack on the first page of this thread NUMBER 19 for instructions. NOTE: The DHL hack information will not be available till Wednesday as the DHL and NVC computers must sync with each other to produce the outcome.
 
You have three stages 1) transit - shipment is in the air or soon will be, 2) received - physical case file is at the Embassy and 3) ready - your case is ready to schedule and complete your interview.  These will be your current state or status to your case file once you have received the case number. Once your record is set to "ready" you are ready to proceed in processing your next steps as listed in your P3 for your embassy.  I have most P3 if you hit me up with a request, I will post back the links.
 
Please don't screenshot and post your CEAC status as it just clutters up the thread. We all know what it looks like. Let us know your progress as we want to celebrate with you. Good luck.

No coffee needed this morning!  I think I've checked CEAC 12 times already this morning.  LOL!

@Greenbaum now that most of our cases have arrived our respective consulate and we have been booked for an interview. What is the next thread we need to join. Thank you for taking out your time to help. It is well appreciated. 

Find your subforum, from the blue ribbon at the top of the page select forums and scroll 3/4 of the page down and look for your country or region.  Good luck.

@Greenbaum Thanks so much!!!

Get your case number first. Then complete the DS-160.  Go to ceac.state.gov and use your case number and choose immigrant.  Next and if your case is in "ready" condition then pay your interview fee, schedule your interview and complete the medical exam.  Read more from the PDF.

Anyone else excited for Tuesday/Wednesday? Lol

You are funny. Thanks again for all of the information! I have passed along to my competent fiancé.  I did read your pdf file many times. He actually can’t schedule the medical until he physically has the letter in his country. @Greenbaum you should start charging

You can complete the DS-160 using your case number.

Yay, a case number assigned! Now waiting for June 25th.. In about three years all of us here will be the most patient people on the planet 😀

Call again and speak to an agent or ask for a tier 2 as they are little more helpful.  Once you complete your next steps please confirm that you indeed got the number you needed and what did it look like. Even hiw you used it. Screen shots would be great to see. Some us old salty's need to relearn a thing or two. Thanks
 

Thank you both! I’ll try to proceed with this information. Appreciate the help!

I read not to long ago, and it was in this thread, where someone  who has lots of experience stated that if your case is assigned a case number by the Wednesday before the Tuesday ship date there is a strong possibility you'll be in that shipment. So you would need to be assigned your case number by this Wednesday.  If they only received your case file today i doubt you'll be on June 25ths shipment. 
 
Your mileage can vary.

NVC gives case numbers out over the phone all the time as long as you can verify that you are the person authorized to receive the information then there is no problems NVC giving you the information over the phone. It's the case number you want the invoice number they will give you too if you ask, but I have yet to figure out what value it has.

Case ID? You mean case number, right? Thae case number is what you need to continue forward.
 
What letter? The letter with your case number? No that's the reason everyone is calling NVC every 10 minutes. The case number and receipt  number is used to complete the DS-160. 
 
The invoice number is the WAC#. 

Greetings! What a delightful K-1 journey! How do I find the average time that the NVC is taking to assign a case number? When I called today, they said it can take up to 8 weeks. I have followed similar timelines to mine and others are receiving them the same day or within a couple of days. I was wondering if maybe people are just not accurately updating their timelines. Any information is greatly appreciated!

yes, only 3 days

My NOA2 is May 22nd. My case still hasn't arrived at NVC after 24 days. It seems that many parts of this process can vary wildly for all of us so no need to fret unless you're out of that 8 week window!

Thanks so much! Happy to share the packet once we receive it. We did find out that the physical letter is required for the Dr appt. I’ll work on the financial support form in the interim. 

Will do and thank you so much!

Thanks Greenbaum! I should have the flag now. Appreciate all of the helpful information!

Very  good now head on over to the May 2019 NOA2 to NVC thread, congrats. You are not done with us yet!
