AichaNicholas, I and my fiancé are in the exact same situation - we know our case is there, we filed the DS-160 and paid the fee. On Monday I sent them an email (with our receipt number, case number, and DS-160 confirmation number, names and birthdates) requesting a K1 interview. If I don't hear from them by Wednesday, I am going to start calling every day.

I know that our case arrived because we looked at this website (look under Immigrant visa with your case number). If it says "ready", that's a good sign.

Please let me know if you have any news or information, and I will be happy to do the same! Good luck!

not sure what you paid for?

You pay at the interview. ($380 TND)

"Instructions" -

OK so did you get your case number? (TNSXXXXXXXXXX)

Once you recieve your case number you can FILL OUT THE DS-160 ONLINE. (https://ceac.state.gov/ceac/)

Print and/or save your confirmation page you will need it at your interview!

Once you fill out DS-160 THEN send the Tunis embassy an e-mail with the following:

confirmation code from DS-160 (in bold letters)

SRC receipt number

case number.

petitioners name and b-day

beneficiary's name and b-day.

SUBJECT: case number

Let them know when your case was sent to the Tunis embassy and inform them that your fiance completed the DS-160 online.

****

ALSO, If you give me your e-mail I can send you "packet 3" which is basically just a checklist.

My friend FWD it to me, and I can now FWD it to you.

****

AND e-mail the embassy every week until they reply! They should reply in 3 days. I know from personal experience that they sometimes don't see your message. Whether it is on purpose or not I do not know :-p

HOPE THIS HELPS! GOOD LUCK!! <3
