Hello all,

I am very confused.

I filed for a Fiance Visa back in Feb. My case was then approved and moved to the Delhi Embassy. My interview date is all set for Oct 1st. However, they are asking me to fill a packet 4. I was under the impression that i had to fill out a pasket 3. Packet 4 has several forms which are more in lined with someone filing for a Spouse visa.

This packet also requires I-864 and DS-260 which are different than what i already filed, signed and mailed to my fiance I-134 and DS 230.

Please help. This is so confusing.

It can all be so very confusing, I agree :). How do you know that they are asking for packet 4? My fiance never received his interview letter or packet 3 & 4. So, I emailed travel docs to get the interview letter and then he sent his applicant statement, DS-230 part 1, DS-156, and passport photos to the immigrant visa section at the embassy. I have spoken with DOS and they said that he is documentarily ready for his interview on Oct 3rd. The New Delhi website is confusing becuase they do seem to lump together the spousal and fiance visas under one category but, from what I understand, we need the I-134 for the interview. Good luck!
