I am just putting this out there for those wandering what the wait time is at the Bangkok embassy is. We just got our packet 4 via email. Our interview day is 26 April. Lately, the Bangkok embassy has had a 2-3 week wait from packet 4 arrival to interview day. however, in our case the wait in between is 4 weeks. One thing to keep in mind during April in Thailand is all the holidays. Perhaps, they are closing for Thai holidays too. We are confident we have everything we need and that we are ready for the interview. Wish us luck.

Good luck! Thanks for the info on how long the wait is. Yes the embassy closes for american holidays and thai holidays. How do I get that job? Today Pui just paid for her visa fee. Does she then have to fill out the online ds-160 to setup her interview? Or does she call the number on there and give the 15 digit pin to set up the interview date?

Andy,

All she did was to mail all the documents requested in the packet 3 to the embassy. Once the embassy received the returned packet 3, they will schedule an interview appointment for her and notify her via email.
