I sent in my public inquiry yesterday and I got the response this morning with our case number! I waited about 2 and a half weeks. Thank you @JojoandTomas ! 😊

Does USCIS status show Petition approved or "Case was sent to department of state?" I would count 2 weeks from "Case was sent to Department of State" status.

Hi! You can send an inquiry starting now

I'm not sure which email you are talking about.  I got 2:  1 from NVC when it was dispatched to Manila, and another one from Manila Embassy when they received it.  The one from the embassy is the equivalent of packet 4.  You do not have to wait for it to complete and pay for your DS-160 though.  All you need for the DS-160 is your case number.  You can complete that now.  All completing the DS-160 does is allows you to start looking for an appointment slot.  Completing the DS-160 does not automatically trigger anything, so I suggest you complete it and pay for it while you wait for the email/letter.  The letter is not mandatory though, so don't let it hold you up.

I told you, They create within to weeks only if people get on top of it. Otherwise they will just forget about it.  Now check the shipping dates to see when yours is going to be sent to the embassy. 

Update!!!!!!   Our case was APPROVED!!!!!!!
 
03/13/2023  USCIS RECEIVED K1 APPLICATION
 
03/16/2023  RECEIVED RECEIPT NOTICE
 
01/18/2024 USCIS APPROVED OUR VISA

I meant to update earlier, but today I got a notice that our K1 visa petition has been sent to the U.S. Embassy in Tegucigalpa (Honduras). The day I signed up for Informed Delivery through USPS was the same day that I saw the NOA-2 was delivered.
 
I need to read up a little more on what our next steps will be. I plan to visit next month and possibly help gather some of the needed documents while I'm there.
