did you receive a welcome letter from the NVC?

Yeah, we already sent our document to NVC 1 month ago.

Hi, the wait list for citizens couple is shorter than legal residents. Once you’re approved and has been more that 60 days, they will send an email like this: Dear (petitioner’s name), This notice is to inform you that your case for an immigrant visa is documentarily complete at the National Visa Center (NVC) and has been since 17-Aug-2021. NVC has received all of the fees, forms and documents required prior to attending an immigrant visa interview. Your petition is awaiting an interview appointment. At this time, no further action is required. We appreciate your patience. Your case will remain at NVC until an appointment is scheduled, at which time we will send it to the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate General. We will notify the applicant, petitioner, and attorney (if applicable) when an appointment is scheduled. The U.S. Embassy or Consulate tells NVC which dates they are holding interviews. NVC fills these appointments on a first-in, first-out basis and is unable to predict when an interview will be scheduled. Visa interviews at many U.S. Embassies and Consulates have been delayed as result of the global COVID-19 outbreak. For the most up-to-date information about the U.S. Embassy or Consulate's operating status, please visit their website at https://usembassy.gov. The next communication you receive from NVC will be either a notice that your appointment is scheduled, or if an appointment is not scheduled within the next 60 days, we will send a notice confirming that your case is still in line for an interview. Important: The applicant should not make any permanent financial commitments until they have received their immigrant visa. This includes activities such as: - Selling a house, car or property, - Resigning from a job, or; - Making other travel arrangements. Thank you for your continued patience. Regards, National Visa Center U.S. Department of State https://nvc.state.gov

if another 60 days come, you’ll receive another email like the one I sent you. Don’t worry about the date of the appointment time, they’ll send that information months ahead. you’ll have enough time to prepare for your visa interview. For sure, there is not a specific date when you appointment will be scheduled. You just pray and wait until everything is ready. God bless you. I hope this information can help you answer your questions.

if the petitioner already had the interview, does he or she have another interview with the beneficiary?

@Crismeli Leanordo Wow thank you very much for the detailed answer. It was really really helpful and you answered more questions than I asked. I don't know if you are in any process, but if so I wish you good luck in your immigration process as well! Thank you again.
