I did some tiresome work on the USCIS site by changing the last 3 digits and there are a number of May filers who have been given RFEs between May 8th and May 16th. I think 3 or 4. More May filers a

for those that's checking CEAC website for status of their petition please note that they are not updating regularly. The embassy has been having my petition for a few days now while CEAC still says it's in transit. it's best to email your embassy with "2nd request and case number" in the subject to see if they have received your paperwork

I'm not sure if it's because the U.S.C. in Naples is so good at their job or they don't process large loads of visas, but I must say the Naples embassy was outstanding. My fiance says they treated her very well and the process was easy and smooth (although she was very nervous at the beginning! That's normal in the process though :) )

Honestly, I think we've gotten lucky with how smooth the process went. Her interview was the 16th, and the consulate processed the visa and shipped it out at 7pm on the day of the interview and it arrived this morning at my fiance's house before she even returned from Naples. Which itself is a miracle considering the Italian postal service has a reputation for being slow at times!

Anyways, we'll write a review in the Italian portal for any Italian may filers out there (or May filers in general).

I know the answer to this is somewhere but I can't find it...

What forms do we now send to the London embassy before they schedule an interview?

Do we still send DS 156, 156k, 157?

Do we send a copy of the DS 260, 160?

I am so confused with all the new changes. ?

1) London-specific posts need to be in the UK Forum.

2) You send DS-2001 and a copy of your DS-160 confirmation page.
