K1 visa australia,will the embassy email you if they have recieved the packet 3?

[Gevalicious 2]

Hello everybody,

My name is Gevalin,i am a thai girl but now in Sydney,i and my boyfriend were working holidays here and decided to apply for K1 visa here even both of us are non-australian. Now I have recieved the Pack3 and just sent them on Friday, my DS230 part 1 (they asked to send them asap) I already sent them while i was on holidays for a month in Thailand and I just found it came back last Friday afternoon for some reason (oh well, may be the aussie post cant really read "To" and "From" - in Thai and English,registerd mail)so i just resent them again today.

I just found i didnt register a packet 3 and mostly in there are my original stuff, and since i got the DS230 back I started paranoid about how the Australian post working.

Anybody can advise me if the embassy will let you know when they recieve the packet or not? like the USCIS always inform us via email when they recieve anything.

Thank you very much ,everybody. I wish you all have a good one!

Cheers,

Gevalin

When I went through Sydney, they let both me and my (then fiance) husband know that they had received Packet 3 by sending us our Packet 4. I am slightly confused by what you are asking though. Have you sent in everything they need to schedule an interview, or just the DS230 part 1? Because they will not send you anything at all until you send them your medical, police check, pretty much everything in this link. Or have you sent everything they requested in, but you received the DS230 back because it wasn't addressed right? If you are mailing something to Australia, I would not put anything but English on the envelope. Just re-mail the DS230. Also, did you do registered mail for everything to Sydney? Registered mail will tell you if it was delivered, and when you are mailing sensitive things like your birth certificate, you want it to be registered.

As for getting an earlier interview date....Sydney is VERY quick with scheduling an interview, usually a week or two weeks after you submit packet 3. The interview is ALWAYS on a Tuesday. My interview was three weeks after I submitted packet 3, but I think that was because it was December and the Consulate was pretty busy coming up on the holidays. I do not think they will give you an even earlier interview unless you literally have a life and death reason.

Thank you for a reply, well i emailed the cosulate twice, one replied me only DS230 recieved,so i had to ask again for the packet 3 and finally, they said YES they recieved it!

Well, it was my bad i didnt register,but you know since i am Thai,we are quiet and a bit slow ( well, quite diff from the western I dont think you will understand even ) so at the post, i was about to ask them to register for me, they already throw the letter away and said "done"

About the post i sent from Thailand, in now days if you want to send an air-mail with register or anything letters international, we always have TWO LANG. ( both Thai and English)

so i think the post in Australia could READ it, but oh well. cant expect that much.

At least now i know everything is fine and all stuff is in the consulate now i am waiting for P.4 ( even my heart goes back to Thailand,longing for the fun water festival and all dilicious food with easy life home) it's easter time so they might need to slow down and will get on it again after their holidays.

I already emailed and request the earliest interview date and they replied me already,they were kind enough to say they will put me in the first earliest that's avalilable when they already review my P.3 and will give me a notice.aha!

Thank you anyway, happy easter!
