I think we get Packet 4. Packet 3 is for the CR1/IR1 visa applicants. Your Packet 4 should contain the appointment letter, instructions, DS156 and DS157 forms and a sheet of paper describing the right photo for the visa.

I got mine last week. I used the DS 157 form that came with it and had it validated at the BPI bank for the Visa application fee.

Sent N400: Oct 27, 2011

NOA: Nov 1, 2011

Biometrics: Nov 16, 2011

Yellow letter date: 12/14/2011

Yellow letter received: 12/19/2011

Some applicants in the Philippines receive pre-interview letter and they think it's the Packet 3. There is no Packet 3, just 4 that contains appointment letter, instructions, DS forms (which are basically useless because they are outdated :whistle: )

Don't worry about it...
