USCIS approval was 2/21/23.
NVC case # created 4/26/23.
 
In case anyone is wondering K1 visa applications do not get welcome letters from NVC from what I've found on the forums. They're transferred directly to the embassy on your case number. I had to email NVC inquiry to get my case #. Their response said: 
 
You will be notified once this case is forwarded to the assigned US Embassy/Consulate General.
 
It'll go from At NVC > In Transit > Received (Embassy) > Ready (interview-ready).
 
Our interview will be handled at CDJ and I'm hearing that they have extremely long wait times to schedule interviews. I haven't been able to confirm that so maybe someone else has more information.

Loooong time reader and I've never posted before but I'm so excited I wanted to share with people that are still waiting. It WILL happen. I'm sorry if this makes anybody feel bad since I know 95% of December is untouched, but I'm really hoping it'll give people some hope. 
 
We were approved today!! The confirmation of receipt date was 12/29/21. The receipt number is in the 34000 group. The application ended up at CSC. The only thing I can say that might have helped is that we used a service to help us organize everything. They sent us a whole packet to make sure we had all of the documents completed and in order, and then we sent it to them for review and they went over the package twice. A couple supporting documents had to be added and then when they said it was acceptable they sent it to USCIS. I don't know if others have used services, but I've seen a lot of comments about how some of the applications since to be cherry-picked to keep their processing times down and I wanted to mention it in case it helps.
 
If anybody has questions or anything let me know.
