I just responded to someone else asking the same thing. There really isn't an "instruction packet". Once your petition is approved by USCIS, your case is forwarded to NVC. You can call NVC every day to see if a case# has been assigned, and when it has, you give them both petitioner & applicant's email addresses to correspond that way. The first email should be Choice of Agent, second should be Affidavit of Support, and third should be IV packet. The final email should be Interview Appointment & Checklist. The general flow of things is, pay a fee (wait for status to show "paid")-->print the emailed, barcoded cover sheet-->mail packet, pay a fee-->print the emailed,barcoded coversheet-->mail packet.

The IV packet is the DS-230 (filled out entirely but only sign part 1), applicant's Original civil documents (marriage/birth/police/divorce/adoption/military Certificates), court/prison records, copy of passport bio data page, 2 identical US passport size photos, AND a photocopy of each document along with the original.

Then you print off the barcoded cover sheet from the IV email & place it on top before mailing.

Keep in mind that all documents for this packet are for the Applicant (intending immigrant) Not the Petitioner (except marriage cert which is shared by you both).

Hope this makes it a little clearer, but you should also check your specific country's embassy/consulate website for any other specifications.
