Hello,

First of all Congrats for a case completion at NVC. Within few days, NVC will transfer your case to Bombay Embasy and update your status on NVC automated message.

Embassy will send packet 3 when they receive your case. Be sure to return it promptly.

Once you send Packet 3 back to Embassy, you can call Department of State at 1-202-663-1225 to find out if there is an interview scheduled for you.

Good Luck,

Yamini...

Yamini,

According to the embassy information, the packet 3 contains DS230 Part I and a checklist which needs to be returned. My spouse has already sent in a DS-230 to NVC -- will she have to submit another one (seems questionable). Had you also submitted a DS230 to NVC (and then again to the consulate).

Thanks,

KP
