What the heck did I miss? My interview is August 8th, and now I'm worried about this courier delivery stuff.. I paid my MRV fee before any of this online stuff started happening and now I'm completely confused after reading this thread! *Weeps*

.. Is there anything else I need to do before the interview? I thought my passport would just be delivered to my home address after the approval.

Fiancee just paid the MRV fee online for K1 visa.....FOLLOW THIS STEP BY STEP, AS WE INITIALLY REGISTERED AT ANOTHER AREA OF THE WEBSITE AND IT DIDNT ALLOW PAYMENT

1) Go here: https://usvisa-info.com/

2) Next go to the immigrant visa applicants tab

3) Click UK english

4) At this point, and until the glitch is fixed, the only tab that properly works as it should currently is the "Apply for a K Visa". Click this tab.

5) Put in your details for an account login along with your email address you wish to register under

6) Next step will guide you to add applicant(s), and do so for each applicant you wish to pay MRV for at that time, i.e k1, k2, etc.

7) Select the courier drop-off or home delivery if you so choose, then click continue

8) Next, will take you to the payment page, Visa or MC DEBIT only.

9) After this, it will take to payment successful and print this page. Click continue again.

10) Next step will ask for facility, choose London, and click continue/next

11) Finally, will take you to page which will have the PIN number with applicant details. Print this page as well.

Hopefully this helps!

Quick question... when I click on "Apply for K Visa" and enter my details, it's saying my email is already taken.. this is because I already made an account to choose my courier hub, but when I did that it gave me no option to pay the MRV fee at all, which is why I'm following these steps to try and pay it. Should I just make another account with a different email address? Ugh this is terribly confusing :/

Just rang the embassy, had my interview on Tuesday which was approved :)

From what they said they have switched over to a new system complete with new courier, that is paid for when you pay the MRV fee, but I paid under the old system (telephone) which was before they switched over, but had my interview after the switch over. So I am stuck in limbo, new courier won't honour payments to the old system, and old courier has no contract any more.

I got told I would receive a phone call to arrange payment and delivery, not heard anything yet and I am due to fly out on the 6th ClockWatch2.gif

Has anyone else been approved since the change but paid before hand? Getting really worried now, and lots of stuff to do but worried about leaving the phone/house in case something comes through. The Woman I spoke to on the phone (after going through various automated messages for about 10 min's) basically said its a bit of a mess at the moment.

In case this may help anyone. If you already have an interview date schedule prior to the new system and still need to pay your MRV fee. There is a chance that you are unable to do so and are considered a 'transition applicant'. The help line on the new site are very unhelpful. What you need to do is go on the consular website and contact them enquiring with how to go forward with making a visa payment. It took two days of speaking to several people to be told this!

I emailed them just now via the embassy website (through the new site, I was able to register and select my DX courier hub, but was offered no further options so I could pay the MRV fee). It says they'll get back in within 5 working days. Bleh.

Hey i got the same message saying my email was already taken because i had set myself up with an account on the wrong type of immigration/non-immigrant. so i simply logged into the account i already had existing and changed my email adress in the settings part so that way i was able to sign up again with the email i wanted

EDIT: Heres my previous post detailing it a bit better when it was all still fresh in my mind

I selected Non - and then it asked me for a DS 160 and in the drop down list had no mention of K visas, so I tried to register for the immigrant which DID have k visas but it said my email address was already registered to the non so i couldnt use it again (sigh). So i had to relog in to non and change my email address (to a random old email account) and only then would it let me reregister for immigrant. Then it asked me for my appointment date so i just closed the page

Ah okay. So I guess it doesn't matter to them if you register with different emails? I might register with another and see if I can pay the fee. I'll stick with the other email for the courier service as I printed out the email they sent to take to the interview (I'm assuming you take the print-out to the interview so they know where to deliver your passport to..?) Please tell me I'm not the only one completely baffled by all this lol.
