I am pretty sure it is written somewhere, probably read it a while ago but I can't remember...

Well, I've got all the documents in hand and I would like to send them to London Embassy today. I don't think I have received "Packet 3" yet at my old address... so I am not sure about where to send them. Is the correct address Immigrant Visa Unit, 5, Upper Grosvenor Street W1A 2JB?

Thanks!!

Here's your London K1 instructions with the address over in the right column. http://london.usembassy.gov/iv_15.html

A call to DOS could confirm if London has sent the letter or has logged in your file after receiving it from NVC.

(202) 663-1225, press 1, then 0

I've got all the documents in hand and I would like to send them to London Embassy today.

Reminder: FORMS get mailed to the embassy, but all personal DOCUMENTS (and passport photos) get taken to the interview, despite what form DS-156K says.

Hi Nick, I just posted this on another thread but after seeing Sara's post, I have the same questions...I have just recently joined but have been reading all your posts the past 7 months to help with the K1 process. It's made a stressful process so much easier, thanks to all your posts. My fiance got the NOA2 on July 9th so I am just waiting for contact from the embassy in London now...I have been reading this page with all the FAQS for some time now & got my fiance to complete the I-134 & start on the next set of forms etc :

http://www.visajourn...pplication.html

I just wanted to check that to everyone's best knowledge, the advice here is all up to date & applies to the UK? I find the London embassy website rather confusing because although it tells you what forms to download & fill out, it doesn't seem to clearly explain which forms you send when & which you hold onto until the interview etc. Can I just clarify that as soon as I get contact from them, I am just posting back the DS-230 form? I have almost everything I need from the document check list except my police report & my fiance is gathering evidence to support the I-134 so until all that is done & physically in my hands, I am not going to send the DS-2001. So again just to clarify, I just post back the DS-230 & hold onto the DS-156, DS-157 & DS-156K? I was also confused by some links that said I should submit all my supporting documents with the DS-230 but then others say I hold onto these & only take them with me to the interview? Does this mean that I need to send photocopies of my birth certificate etc with the DS forms? I know original documents are required at the interview stage as well as a copy of each. Also as I am about to order my police report & it's obviously not free, do I need more than one copy? Is this the only stage during the whole process (including AOS & after...) that I will need to show a police report or should I pay the extra charge to get an additional copy to take with me once I move to the US? Anything I am wrong about or have missed out? Sorry about all the questions! Thank you

I already answered most in the other thread.

Police certificate will be shown at the medical and turned in at the interview. A spare copy is only if you want one. Not needed for anything else. My husband got a spare in case an employer might want to see it like a background check before there was any US background. Nobody seemed interested in his, but it's something to consider if you want one for yourself.

I'm wondering if you got off on a link for spouse visas. They do mail all their original documents to NVC. See other thread for what to send.

Yes I think you're right...I was confused about some of the sections with the DS-230 so I searched "Help DS-320" & lot's of advice came up but as that form is used for so many visa types, I guess I was reading info that doesn't apply to the K1 situation. If the embassy info is the most accurate then I will take your advice, ignore everything else & send in the 4 forms it states. Thanks again
