I believe DS-230 was called packet 3 before.But i m not sure.I have heard NVC assigns interview dates during second working week of the month and it depends on how busy ur .embassy is too If ur case is completed in first week of a month,You most likely will get a date for the next month.If u miss the first week u will get some thing after a month when they do the scheduling again.Hope this helps.

After sending the Original Documents,to the NVC, is there a DOS form for requesting the Originals be returned? I was thinking of submitting a letter requesting the Originals be returned and a complete set of copies at the interview. Anybody been successful in getting the Originals back, lately?

The DOS rules state that you are supposed to send both originals and regular photocopies to NVC (but photocopies seems to be optional as many have gotten case complete by submitting originals alone).

NVC forwards the entire file to embassy after case complete, and after interview, embassy is supposed to keep the photocopies and give back the originals. That is the official DOS policy, but of course embassies seem to have their own set of rules. Most embassies follows this policy and the CO will have the originals during the interview, so just ask for those back once the interview is over. Take another set of photocopies with you during the interview to be safe.

as many others have posted, if the originals were submitted to NVC then you will not be asked to provide them during the interview...but it is a good idea to bring copies along with you, but not ABSOlUTELY neccessary...when you receive the final packet they will inform you if any ORIGINAL documents will be needed at the interview...GOOD LUCK
