Again need info for packet 3

[moemac59 192]

Here goes (this is so confusing)

Going thru the DS230 and it is asking for all school info - does this include elementary thru post secondary? If so, for elementary thru high school how do I respond to the question " Course of study and degree or diploma? Yeah sure - I received my MBA in kindergarten...sorry for being a smartass there but this is so frustrating not having all the information that I need

Can packet 3 get filed electronically? If so, how do I do it?

I keep seeing reference to a checklist included in packet 3. I thought that the checklist was issued with Packet 4 As I am ubber paranoid that I am not going to get the packet 3 instruction from the consulate (haven't received yet and keep seeing some post that some people never receive this). Are there example forms on how to assemble packet 3 (like cover letter for packet 3)? The one for the K1 petition in the forums and guidlines was very good and very helpful.

Is there an easier guide for setting up the DHL account? It can be quite confusing. The questions what is trip purpose and what type of visa.

Uggh ready to pull out my hair.

Breathe. If you panic now you really won't like AOS There are many forms for you to file down the road.

Instructions for filing and assemble Packet 3 are on the consulate's website here http://montreal.usconsulate.gov/visas/visas/immigrant-visas/forms.html.

You file DS-160 online but have to mail the confirmation copy with everything else in your mailed package. When they ask for educational institutions attended you answer in the box. If there is not enough room, you write ''SEE DOC ATTACHED'' in the box and you list everything on a different sheet on which you write ''DS-230 Applicant's educational history, CASE #''. You then join it to your DS-230. For kindergarten to high school, you can leave the diploma section blank or write ''Yes'' to indicate you graduated.

I don't remember about DHL I think it's through CSC website. It was pretty simple to register when I did last year. I'm sure someone else will jump in and help you with that.

Edit: I just checked my old DS-230 and I didn't include my high school information. Not saying you shouldn't but it didn't see to bother them. I did have 4 entries for college & universities tho.

That link doesn't work anymore. I think they have since changed where there forms are located. I think if you scroll down far enough on these threads you can see one that talks about this.

Weird, I was just on that page and it worked just fine. Your link doesn't seem to work either. You can find it on the consulate's website under ''Visa'' and ''Fiance Visas''.

Copying content here just in case.
