No Packet 3 Yet

[Housni&Marie 7]

How long does it take to receive packet 3 from the consulate in Casablanca? Our case was forwarded from NVC on 8/16. My fiance sent an email inquiry the end of August and he received an email from the consulate on 9/7 saying they have received our case and would be forwarding the packet and appointment letter "shortly". I called DOS today to see if I could get any more information, or interview date. The woman I spoke with told me his packet was mailed on 8/24, three weeks ago. I asked if there was an interview scheduled, and was told that an interview would not be scheduled until he returned the papers from packet 3. I told her from what I understand, all the papers would be taken with him to the interview, nothing is returned beforehand, and his packet will contain an appointment letter with his interview date. If this is the case, how could they have sent out the packet on 8/24 and not have an interview scheduled? She replied again that the packet was mailed out on 8/24 and no interview is scheduled. I am really confused now. I tried to call the consulate, and was given a number to call between 3-4 pm, but when I called this number all I got was a recording in Arabic. My fiance is going to try to call this number, maybe he can get some answers. Should I be worried that he has not receive packet 3 yet? How long has it taken others to receive it?

Thank you for your response!

When my husband went through K1, it took 3 weeks to receive it. Mail is slow in Morocco. The Consulate schedules their own interview for K1s. Send an email directly to the Consulate if you have more questions. Good luck.

Thanks for your reply. I know how bad the mail is in Morocco, anything I have ever personally mailed him he has never received. That's why I'm really starting to get worried that either he will get it so close to his interview date that he won't have time for his medical, or worse yet, won't receive it at all before his scheduled interview. I'd feel better if we at least knew the interview date at this point. But we will try to email the consulate again. Thank you!

Thank you for your reply. I know we can download all the forms he needs, and we will probably do that if he does not receive packet 3 soon. But he does not send anything to the consulate in Casablanca, he takes everything with him to the interview, but we don't know his interview date yet because that information is in packet 3.
