OK so me and my fiance have been working on getting the paperwork and our interview at the Jamaican Embassy since end of June. So far we have not recieved a single piece of mail and have compleatly given up on ever getting it. We went ahead and filled out the DS-230 and sent them a signed copy via email over two weeks ago and then requested an interview date and the compleat packet to be emailed to me. So Far no reply and its been the stated 5 days. We are feeling very stressed out and panicked. What else can we do? Has anyone else had issues like these? Any ideas what kind of steps we should make to get thier attention. They seem to be compleatly ignoring all our emails. Has anyone gone to the embassy themselves to pick up the packet and request an interview date? We are willing to do anything. This process has been going on since November 12 for us. We are ready for it to be over.

Call DOS for interview date. You dont need to receie Packet 3 to move forward. http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_2994.html

Here is the website that describes the next step forms.

Here is a link to an old Packet 3 cover letter, the forms are still correct. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/307713-jamaica-packet-3/

Since you have KNG number, when you get interview date, you can call for the medical appt.

Phase I - IV - Completed the Immigration Journey

You will get a reply soon. Keep in mind today Thursday was a holiday so it did not count. I recommend you resend the email again tonight to BOTH email addresses. I have gotten responses as early as 7am Jamaica time. DOS can give you your interview date. But they cannot give you the interview letter that you NEED for the medical and embassy entrance. So bottom line you must find a way to obtain a copy of your appointment letter.

Btw here are the prompts to press for DOS gets you through quickly. 1,6,2,3,2,0,0
