Hi guys,

Hope you are all doing great in your visa journey.

Can i have an idea on the content of packet 3 at the Yaounde embassy?

When are they scheduling medicals?prior to interview or the same day?

What if i drop my packet 3 directly at the embassy?

Thanks in advance.

Packet 3 is basically a set of instructions on how to proceed once Yaounde receives your file from the NVC. Ours was emailed to me (Petitioner) - maybe b/c I had called them the week before to find out if they had received our case file. They tell you which forms you need to fill, picture requirements, what to bring as evidence of relationship and give you the contact info for the two doctors who do the medicals. They advice you to make an appoinment to do your medical at least two weeks before your interview date. The doctor sends the results directly to the embassy and you get a copy as well. You will need to call the embassy to schedule an interview. I hope this answered your questions. Good Luck!

On this note,

What if the benificiary doesn't have a "mailing address" or a post box to receive mail? I don't remember putting either his or my email on our I129F (I forgot to send in the notification form, so i just received a hard copy of NOA2 and could check it online). I did however put his phone number on one. Any ideas about this?

Also, is there a fee the benificiary has to pay in excess of medical or interview fees? Does anyone have updated information pertaining to this?

And last, does the beneficiary have to have a sort of "criminal record" from each city they have lived in for x number of years? I read this somewhere but don't know if it includes Cameroon.

Hoping somebody who has recently gone through this can help....

I dont know as much about the K-1 process,however, I am sure the criminal record part is the same all across the board. I have attached the information regarding that. Hope this helps and someone else can be of more assistance regarding your other questions. :thumbs:
