Hey guys,

So online my status says "READY", however, we have not received any email or any letter after the NVC has sent out approved application to the US Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan.

I also have the invoice number.. Do I need to file/pay for anything else before they send us the so called "packet 3" (requesting additional documents)? it has been about 4 weeks since the NVC sent our application to Islamabad.

I emailed the US embassy but did not get an answer from them.

What should i do at this point?

Thanks!

Mine took about 4 weeks... My fiancee in Pakistan still hasn't gotten the letter in the mail. However, the embassy emailed me a copy of it so we sent the requested docs.

Good luck man, things dont seem to go as smooth once the file is in Pakistan.

Thanks

So they email me or my fiancé ?? I am in Pakistan and my fiancé is in USA..!! Who will get the email..??

You, in Pakistan, will get the letter in the mail. I (a US citizen) had to email the embassy twice asking for the status and they sent me an email with the copy of the letter attached to the email.

So, once about 4 weeks have passed, you can ask your fiance (the US citizen) to email the US embassy in Islamabad and request the status of the case.

Good luck!
