My NOA2 got approved recently for K-1 Fiancee visa. Can you please share what would be next step be? I am assuming Packet # 3 would not be received!!

In that case my fiancee will forward the DS 230 form scanned & the letter stating she got ready with her necessary documents, via email to the emabssy. When do we submit all the documentary evidence of relationship, before interview or at the time of interview. When do we pay the visa fees? How do I obtain the NWD Case #? Who assigns a NWD case #? Can somebody please detail out the entire process, since the approval of NOA2.

Congratulations - Now the real thing begins. Buckle Up and start preparing now for the interview.

USCIS will now forward your case to NVC and they will assign the NWD number (assuming New Delhi is your embassy). You can call them up and check when they will forward the case - typically takes about 10 working days for them to forward the case to the embassy.

Next Steps

New Delhi embassy doesn't send packet 3, that is what my experience has been. Just send an email to VFS requesting for the forms or download the DS 230 and applicants form from the US embassy's website. Fill the forms scan them and email them to VFS along with the photograph (Its not necessary to paste the photo on the form u can send it as a separate attachment). Make sure that the size of the email is less than 2 MB otherwise VFS will not be able to open it. (I wasted good 20 days because I wasnt aware of this).

VFS will forward the emails to the embassy and you will receive the interview letter (Packet 4) within 10-15 business case. I suggest you follow up with VFS through email - dont call just email.

Start preparing documents for the interview - Make sure that you start this right away - get the PCC from both the regional passport office and the local police station.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
