Hi Guys...

I need some a little help. I am planning on going away for a bit ;) and am mindful of the fact that packet 3 may well turn up at my parents while I a away.. I have all the bits and bobs that are on the checklist however I dont know what I need to send back in packet 3.

Can Somebody please advise me what forms I need to send back and where I can download them. Do they need to be typed or is printed and written okay?

I also guess that there will be a case number allocated by the Embassy which will need to entered. I just want to get ahead of it.. basically if I want to leave an envelope as complete as possible so that when P3 arrives my folks can write the case number on it and send it back on my behalf. basically keeping things moving.

Has anybody else done this? any adivce would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave.

From a previous post of mine

PM me an email address and I can give you online access to P3. It's msn based so hotmail, msn, or live mail is best.

This is what you send back asap

•DS-230 Part 1, pages 1 & 2 completed

•DS-156, in duplicate, unsigned

•DS-156K, unsigned

•DS157 (males)

The checklist showing you have gathered your documents can be sent later, but if you have everything in hand, send with the above things. This is the list of what you should have in hand to take to the interview http://www.usembassy.org.uk/cons_new/visa/iv/docs169.html

address is-

Immigrant Visa Branch

United States Embassy

5 Upper Grosvenor Street

London W1A 2JB

The forms are here: http://www.usembassy.org.uk/cons_new/visa/.../visaforms.html

You complete them online in one sitting because you can't save and go back later and finish. You print them and mail them back with the checklist if you have those things in hand. Get your LND case number from Dept of State (DOS) by calling them at:

(202) 663-1225 press 1, then 0 to speak to a live person

Can tell you if app was received by embassy, when Packet 3 sent out and when interview is scheduled, depending on where you are in the process at the time of your call. NVC has to assign your case number before DOS will have it.
