[bethnash 0]

Ok im going to write down what i think happens, please correct me if im wrong or miss something! Thanks so much in advance

We get NOA2

Its gets transfered to NVC, then onto the London embassy

I then get the Packet 3 and do the neccesary paperwork

Book and attend a medical

Then get an interview date and interview

Finished!

To be ready for this Packet 3, i can get my police certificates ready and should have my finace have the avident of support form completed and all the associated paperwrok so he can send it to me....Apart from that is there anything else i can do to be ready for packet 3 from the embassy? Or just generally do to be as prepared as possible?

Thanks again!

Hi

Here's the link for all the forms other than the checklist that you will get with packet 3. I completed all mine and had all the evidence and police clearance ready in time to send my packet 3 back the same day that I received it.

Good Luck

Hi!

You've got it spot on! There is not much else you can do - I'd send off for the police certificate as that can take a while and also get the I-134 sorted out - theres not much else you can do really! There is a couple of forms that come with packet 3 but they are simple!

Don't worry!

Hi!!!

It is still a little confusing to me too, but as I know, when they send you the package 3 the only thing you need to do in a hurry is to send the DS-230 forms back with the copy of your passport and 2 passport pictures! Then, they'll send you the package 4 with more instructions and you have to join all the documents necessary for the interview day!

Anyway, it's reccomended for us to START getting all the documents (including those ones necessary for the affidavity of support) and the medical exams ready right after you know the papers are with NVC (a little after you receive the 2nd NOA), so you have time to get the documents little by little and don't take the risk of having any of them missing!

Good Luck!

What you are saying is not applicable to the London Embassy. The London Packet 3 contains a lot more than DS230, and you do NOT send in your passport nor an pictures to the London Embassy. These are things you bring to your actual interview. The only thing you send back to London is what they send you in the packet 3 (DS 230, DS 156, DS 156K, DS 157 (if the foreign fiance is male), and checklist (IV 15)).

Bethnash, you seem to have it right

I think that London sends you all the information you need for booking your medical and the checklist for it in packet 3.

Oh, sorry... I didn't know it changed from one Consulate to another!

So, that's more simple than here in Brazil!

Yep, they're almost all different in some way. Some require tax returns, some don't, some have different forms, etc etc. I just wanted to be sure the OP didn't get confused by what you had said.
