I read somewhere that people are sending their information (DS-230-Part 1, Form DS-156 and DS-157) to the US Embassy prior to receiving the "packet 3" in the mail. Is this ok? We have the NVC case number, but I was just making sure that it is actually prudent to do this in advance. Thanks for the help!!

03-05-10 NOA1

05-26-10 Received RFE dated 05-21-10 (I forgot to answer a question, grr)

05-26-10 Replied to RFE

06-08-10 NOA2

09-08-10 Interview (187 days from NOA1)

10-05-10 Visa Issued

10-19-10 POE Atlanta

10-28-10 Wedding

05-17-11 AOS Interview APPROVED!! "Green Card" is on it's way.

Happily ever after...

Wow that's great!

Can I just check then...Does the I-134 form and documents get taken to the interview and not posted to the embassy along with the other forms?? (My fiance has just posted me all his documents)

But if we can get moving on the interview date now, that would be fantastic!

Thanks.
