I never seen this in the requirements. Why should you submit this? If it was not approved it would not even reach the NVC nor the consulate.
If the application status is ready it means that you can proceed to the interview.
This approval is not listed in packet 3, so forget about it

You need to call the NVC to get your case number that will start with NPL2021...
Then you should check on the ceac website the status of this number under the section immigrant visa status
When the status change from at nvc to in transit it means it has been shipped, when it changes from in transit to ready then you can book your appointment online

i have never called embassy . yes i got my appointment i have heard from other italians who have not received letter from embassy once their case send to embassy they got their appointment and it was okay for them. good luck

Are you the beneficiary or petitioner? Usually the petitioner receives the NOA2 at their home address in the US. I have not heard of beneficiary receiving the NOA2 overseas.
 If you are the petitioner and haven’t received the NOA2 , you should get in contact with USCIS and see about that. USCIS does charge a fee I believe to issue a new NOA2. You will need this for Adjustment of Status so it’s important to locate this form. It would have been sent to the petitioners home address or whatever address you used on the petition.
 
i do not know about your consulate interview process but for Dominican Republic we just have to wait until they reach out and send us the interview email. You may want to inquire in one of the more embassy specific forums on VJ
That’s correct. It’ll stay at nvc until your embassy requests it
