Does anyone know of a K3 visa process that similar to James and Lotto shortcut for IR1/CR1? Its too early for me but just curious so that I can be ready with the required paperwork before hand. Lotto shortcut is here:

For K3, you don't deal with NVC, you deal with the consulate. You can track the package left NVC as described in Loto's guide. As soon as the package arrived at the consulate, you can give the consular office a call. You can save 2-3 weeks by picking up packet 3 & 4 from the consulate instead of waiting for them to come in the mail. Of course, only possible if you don't live 1000 miles away from the consulate. :-)
