K1 haven't received packet 3 yet! It has been over 1 month now!

Hi everyone,

I really need some advice as our case was sent from NVC to the US Embassy in Paris on August 8th and we haven't received our Packet 3 yet! We are extremely nervous as we thought that everything was going to be faster now and I always quit my job so I am so frustrated. What should we do? Online, on the CEAC status check website, it says READY and that the status was last updated on August 14th. I don't know what do to, we cannot call the embassy because the only number is for non related immigrant visas status and it also costs 15 euros. My fiancé and I have oath sent two emails each and still no answer... Is it normal to wait for that long for PAris, can someone share their own experience please... Should we go ahead and find all of the documents online and send them anyway or still wait?

Thank you so so much!

Hi!

I'm French too and waiting too.

Did u go to this link?

http://www.travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/types/types_4323.html

when you select PRS for Paris, what do u get? Cause it doesn't work for me and maybe in fact it is useful i don't know.

you should wait a little still for your Packet 3, it'll come, don t worry.

Hey, don't worry, your pkt 3 will be there soon. That takes a while for them to send it. Don't rely on the CEAC at this point, it says ready but it doesn't really mean anything. What you can do is call the DOS to make sure your packet arrived. If they sent packet 3 they should also tell you. Call DOS.

Thank you so much, we will call DOS! Edwige I went to the website before and it never worked for Paris, I dont know why. I will keep you updated! Good luck to you guys too!

So my fiance just called DOS and they said that the Paris US Embassy received the electronic version of the papers 3 weeks ago but the hard copy visa documents are currently stopped at french customs! As soon as the embassy receives it, they will send me Packet 3. Has anyone been in that situation before? How long will it take to be processed at customs? I am so upset...

*** Thread moved from K-1 Process forum to the Embassy/Consulate forum -- topic involves that phase. ***

I have no clue what you should do. But others do. Create a new topic with the headline "USCIS lost I-129F between NVC and Embassy" or something. People answer more to new topics

I think you should call the Paris US embassy,if they have already recieved your case,the embassy is the one responsible for sending you a letter(packet 3)..
