Visa instructions from the U. S. Embassy

Does anybody know if the petitioner's fiancé(e) can pick up the packet with the visa instructions directly from the U. S. Embassy? I fear that the packet has been lost in the mail. It has been more than two months since I received a letter from the National Visa Center stating that my petition was forwarded to the embassy and that my fiancée would soon receive a packet of instructions.

There are many cases here where people have done just that. I do not know about your embassy in particular, I hope someone can confirm this for you.

Each embassy is different, you need to contact the embassy you are dealing with and find out if they even have your petition and then ask if they have attempted to mail it, and then if they have and you didnt get it you need to ask if you can pick up another one in person.

By the way the Colombian embassy website has a page for asking for appointments to discuss visa issues. If your Fiancee is local suggest she do that. here it the link

My fiance never recieved packet 3. We knew it had been sent because the embassy told us so. After 2 weeks he called and they made a time for him to come to the embassy and pick up another packet.

Are you using an immigration service or did you file your petition yourself? I used an immigration service to help me prepare the I-129F petition, and they tell me that it usually takes 6 to 8 weeks for the embassy to send the packet of instructions. I don't believe them because all the timelines that I've seen here on VJ show receiving the packet of instructions within 1 to 2 weeks of the letter from the NVC. I think something's happened to my petition.
