packet 3 missing

[Jacqfass 0]

Hi fellow journeymen/women,

I just found out from the Dept of State that my packet 3 was mailed from Montreal (MTL) on Aug 3. It is now Aug 28 and nada.

I have scoured the internet trying to find a way to contact MTL with no luck... beside an email address which advises they will reply in 4 weeks!!!!

Anyone out there have this issue? Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jacqfass

We also experienced this earlier this month. We emailed the Montreal embassy and within a couple days they emailed us the packet 3 letter. Hope this helps! Good luck!!

I think every consulate does this. We have been waiting since August 16th for our packet 3.

Hi CA2CA,

Do you recall the email address you used. I have emailed 2 different addresses and both came back with auto replies that they don't assist with this type of query.

I'm distraught over the run around I've been given.. I spend an entire work day trying to figure this out, any info you can provide would be beyone appreciated.

Thanks,

Jacqfass

WHEW!!!! Crisis averted.. called the Dept of State again and was told since packet 3 was mailed I can go online, get packet 3 info and send it in. In the meantime I am to email Montreal-IV-DV@state.gov to have them change my address.

Wiping my tears of frustration away now!

We think so too. We are still waiting for confirmation if our Jakarta embassy has received our case. We called and emailed them about our Packet 3, we only received auto response with no follow-up.

Can we ask which Department of State phone numbers did you call to get the updated status?

The number I called for the Department of State (located in Washington, DC) is 202-663-1225. Both times I spoke to people who could tell me the date Packet 3 was mailed and to what address. Good Luck!

Thank you very much with that phone number information.
