Hi,

Let's see if I can help you, I am going through the Mumbai consulate, this is what I was given when I went to the information counter at the Mumbai consulate.

Here is a complete list of forms that are part of packet 3.

Applicant statement.

Form DS-230, parts 1,2,3 & 4.

Form I-134, Affidavit of support.

Photo instructions.

I also received a letter stating that I have to fill out the Application statement and part 1 and 2 of the form DS-230. Please note, u have to attach a photo to page 1 of the form DS-230.

The rest of the forms need to be filled out and brought to the interview.

The forms are standard, you can go ahead and download it from Mumbai Consulate's website.

Instead of mailing it in, hand deliver it to the information desk at the consulate, its faster and it will help getting you an earlier date for the interview.

Interview dates are subject to availability. Mumbai consulate website lists the dates and application numbers for the interview. An average of 15 K3 & K1 applicants is what I am seeing on the Mumbai consulate website on a monthly basis.

Usually, it takes about 2 months for the interview to be set, but you have to get all the other documents, plus the medical done, so time will fly.

Also to note, Mumbai consulate requires 2 police certificates, I am assuming its the same for Delhi also. One from the local police station and the other from the commisioner's office. It was a pain to get it and it took me almost 2 months.

Please do your homework, its better to be safe than sorry.

Hope this helps, good luck to you.

Kurt.

Kurt75, thanks for your reply.

1) What do you need to show to get packet 3? Do you need to show passport?

2) What did you submit to get the interview?

DS-230 Part1

DS-230 Part2 - I thought is not needed for K3.

Did you submit DS-2001 and Application Readiness form?

3) When you submit the form, do they give you packet 4 right then?

Thanks.

Hello YeYe,

Packet 3, you need to show your passport, best if you take a copy and hand it to them along with the forms.

Basically, you have to submit the forms that I had mentioned,

DS-230 Part 1

Application form

DS-2001

Do not forget a photo attached on the first page of the application form.

DS-230 Part 2 is to be submitted at the time of the interview, not now.

Packet 4 comes in mail as far as Mumbai consulate is concerned, however, I would check personally at the information desk in 2 weeks after submitting the packet 3.

Hope this helps.

Kurt.
