I-730 FTJ-A Status update

My family resides outside the United States and their I-730 was updated as case sent to USCIS International Office or DOS Consulate Office for processing. Next day it was updated to Case Was Transferred And A New Office Has Jurisdiction. I’m confused if it was sent to the embassy directly or has to go through NVC before forwarding to embassy. How much longer is the process till interview?
