Packet 3 specific instructions

[nobbie 105]

I am likely going to send off my DS forms and cover letter etc before I actually see the instructions, so my question is are there any specific instructions regarding send them off.

I know which forms and address etc what I mean is:-

Can you staple stuff together or do they request you not to, use paper clips or something or do they want them loose for copying. Like 2 pages of DS 230 or any additional sheets you may have for some of the forms.

Do they care if you send it special delivery so it has to be signed for or would they rather you did not.

Or any other specific instructions they may have.

Cheers

I stapled sheets together (like all the bits of one set of forms and any continuation sheets together), like you're suggesting.

You can send stuff special delivery. I was using next-day delivery by 1pm Royal Mail service with success. It's nice to have a code to check stuff actually arrived.

I used 1st class Signed For. Arrived the next day each time and I live up North.

There is an example 'packet 3' letter at post 18 on this page - http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/350185-london-2012-k1s-from-noa2-to-interview-thread/page-2

I sent mine by courier as I was in the US at the time. However, I would suggest sending it by Special Delivery Guaranteed - http://www.royalmail.com/personal/uk-delivery/special-delivery?intcampaignid=CLT_0613_LP_19 Personally, I don;t think the 9am service is worth the extra and I always worry that someone might not be there to receive it. I would suggest the before 1pm service.

That is what i think I will do, the is a PO round the corner from the medical place, so assuming that's ok I shall pop in there and get them sent.
