I will give a little more info than you asked for in case anyone else wonders (I know I have been stalking all threads here for a year looking for timelines etc)
 
We filed our I-129F with the USCIS on March 3, 2021. (That is, that’s the date the USCIS received it)
 
We got our NOA 2 in mid January 2022.
 
Late March 2022, we got a notice from the NVC that they had our approved I-129F for 60+ days and were still holding onto it. They gave us our case number then also.
 
At the beginning of June, we got a notice that the NVC sent our case to Sydney.
 
A few weeks later, we got an email from the US Consulate/Embassy in Sydney asking for some info like our case number, DS-160 receipt, etc. so they could put us on their waitlist for an interview. We responded right away with the requested info. They responded soon after that we were on the waitlist.
 
Lastly, on the 29th of June, we got another email from Sydney telling us our interview date, which is in late August. They also gave us a list of documents needed for the interview. 
we booked a medical right away but there was not much availability.
 
Hope that helps. 

Thank you so much for sharing your experience!! That really put my mind at ease. I’m very grateful for your response! Thank you. ☺️
