You better ask on forum for France. Every embassy proceeds by their own rules. Perhaps you don't need it. Are you sure you can't download packet 3 from the embassy website? Just a hint.

I can certainly check to make sure

No, you have to wait in the mail for it.

Do you have all the documents ready? It's better to spend time preparing all that than waiting impatiently.
