Hello Everyone

Thanks once more for all your support since we started our Journey.I am the Beneficiary and My application was received by the embassy in Finland on Dec 20th and my case status online shows "READY". Since then i have not heard anything from the embassy.Please i will be happy to hear from members who have passed through Finland whether packet 3 that contains the documents which are required for interview will be sent by regular mail by the Embassy to me or i have to check the required documents online from the embassy website because i have gone through the website but have not been able to see anything about the required documents there.

Thank you all.

contact the embassy and find out from them but also do remember that its basically the holiday period and things are bound to move a little bit slower

Our packet took about 2 weeks to arrive after the embassy got our file. We never found any instructions online at the embassy site -- apart from the list of doctors for the medical, which is here: http://travel.state.gov/pdf/medical/HLS-MED-ENGL-0003-1303.pdf We went ahead and scheduled our medical before we had heard from the embassy, and ended up with a completed medical before we even got the packet. There was no problem, you just need to wait a bit longer for yours to arrive I'm sure -- the holidays do slow things down a lot!

Our packet had blank copies of forms that you can find online, and instructions for the online DS form, as well as a checklist that we had to sign and send back (saying yes, we have these documents and are ready to have an interview) which we stupidly forgot to make a copy of, so I can't tell you exactly what was on the checklist! It was just forms and the checklist, you can start filling out the forms already if you're worried about that -- I think it was the DS-230 and the online DS-156, though I cannot be 100% sure since we simply filled them out and sent them back as soon as we got them.
