hi

well iam lil confused about ma interview..

my I-130 got approved on the spot and was give packet 3.5 and submitted packet 3.5 ...few days later recieved packet 3 as well and called embassy that i recived two packets..so they told me to ignore the packet 3..well I sent an email to embassy regarding my interview they said.

According to our records, an information packet (Packet 3) was sent to

you on November 28, 2008. In that packet we advised you of the

documents required for an immigrant visa application. When you submit

the tick form, DS-230 Part-1 and DS-2001, you will be scheduled for a

visa interview as per the next available date.

well im confused what to do its already been 4 weeks and not yet recived the packet 4...

so iam confused what to do..???

Processing time varies. If you are really anxious then contact the embassy and ask them if they have processed your Packet 3 yet and if not how long their processing usually takes.

In Sydney they told me it would take them about 2-3 weeks to review documents and schedule appointments. If you look at my timeline you'll see they were pretty spot on

Assuming that postal delivery should take a week or less with this special delivery service, and it's now been 4 weeks, it sounds like it's been lost. Can the USVFS office put a trace of the package/ do they have proof it has been delivered (a signature etc)? if they have no proof, I'm afraid you'll probably have to re-send everything. If they have proof, give that to the embassy and maybe your package got lost there and they can find it....
