UK Embassy forms

[ClivePeagam 1]

Hello fellow UK VJers.

Just a quick question about what to send to the embassy after getting letter of approval, i understand about what forms to print and fill in but i have read that ppl send other documents as well, for example the affidavit of support. my question is should i send these documents with the forms or not as the letter says and i quote "Do not send under any circumstances send any documents to this office until you are specifically requested to do so. A final determination concerning there acceptability can only be made at the time of the interview. This will also prevent loss of documents and your having to obtain duplicates"

Thanks for any help you can give

It's my understanding that the beneficiary brings the affidavit of support and other forms with them to the interview, but as I haven't gone through the process yet myself, I'm not 100% on that.

Here's a great thread in the UK specific forum about what to do between NOA2 and the interview. Hope it helps.

I must ask....your timeline says the embassy is Armenia....UK applicants generally go through London. Is it just wrong in your timeline? Curious minds want to know

ok looking through the forums i found the answer i was after, Here's what i found:

Here's the basics of what London needs to get before they assign an interview:

• Visa application forms sent in by you to get in the queue. Only forms. No passport photos or documents like birth certificate, police certificate, etc.
  • Form DS-230 Part I and Part II
  • Form DS-156 (2 copies)
  • Form DS-157 (2 copies)
  • Form DS-156-K (Do not sign it. You will sign at the interview while the officer witnesses. It's an oath)
• Medical results. They arrive at the embassy by courier 3-4 days after your medical exam.
• Form DS-2001 Readiness for Interview with a cover letter- This is your way of saying you have gathered every document needed for the interview including the I-134 from your fiance. They are in your hands---not on the way.

Hope this also helps anyone else that may be confused.

I highly recommend reading through the thread that UK-USA-K1 linked you to, especially the first 10 or so posts. You only send in the DS forms to the embassy. Supporting documentation, the affidavit of support, etc. should be in your folder when you arrive at the embassy for your interview.

Clive---you have got to quit reading things that other consulates do. Each has their own procedure. London said in a letter to you, " Do not under any circumstances send any documents to this office,". That's exactly what London means.
