London embassy

[E-N 48]

How long does it take the beneficiary to get their letter (packet 3)?

Some time embassy sends p3 but some time not. You can put online request to them . They reply quickly.

You can submit ds160 . No need to wait p3 if your case is ready

I got my NOA2 on October 16th, I received my letter from the embassy on November 18th, I then received my NVC letter on November 19th. A bit out of order!

alrighty. So, once my fiance fills out his DS160, does his medical and he submits his readiness form, then they will set his appt? The only thing that frustrates me is he has to get his police certificate from Ghana.... he still has to request it. He will go to the embassy in London to request it. not sure how that works..

But he is not to submit his Readiness form until he is actually "ready". He needs the Ghana police certificate in hand to be ready.

The Department of State has a web page where you can look up how to get documents from each country. Scroll down until you find Police Certificate http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/fees/reciprocity-by-country/GH.html

I had to get a police certificate from Japan, it's a pain in the #######! I had to pay £79 to get fingerprints, then I went to Edinburgh (£26) and apply for it at the Consulate of Japan (£6.40). It takes 2 months for them to process it, not sure about Ghana but the sooner he gets all that sorted the better!

Oh my goodness... I hope not that long. I would be so mad at him as I told him to request it in September
