Hi,

my name is Smita and I am waiting to get married to my beloved Jason as soon as posible. I have applied for the K1 visa and recently submitted the DS230 document to the US Embassy in delhi (22nd April to be precise). I am curious to know when would I receive th information kit that would have the interview date details and the relevant information regarding the parperwork, the medical checkup and the fees to be paid. by when should I be expecting(timelines) the 4th packet which contains more or less this information?

It depends upon your embassy when you would receive the packet 4 (interview packet).

I am confused, are you JUST starting your visa process now? Have you turned in your I-129f. I assume so since you said you turned in your DS-230.

Okay to give you an example, we turned in our packet 3 (all the info that we turn into the embassy after they have received our petition from NVC) and we turned that in and the embassy received it on april 2nd. We are still waiting for them to make the damn interview date for us.

It depends on the country as to how long you will wait. You need to make a timeline, and you also need to check out other peoples timelines who filed for dehli and see how long it's taking them.

It depends on how busy the Embassy is. It takes between weeks to months. Mine took 3 weeks, sooner than I expected until I had to postpone it :blink:
