What do I have to do after my I-30 application filed from my spouse has been approved?
The case has now gone to National Visa Center (NVC) but we have no idea what to do next. I am currently in Brazil and my spouse is in the US.

The NVC will contact your spouse about a month or so after getting the approved i130 from USCIS with instructions on payment of the consular fees and submission of documents for the consular processing stage. In the meantime, you can review the requirements for the documents you will both need to present on the us state dept website under immigrant visas So that when the NVC does contact your husband you will both be prepared to submit everything. If you are working with an attorney he/she should be able to assist you with this stage of the process.
