Is this packet 3?

[larryluck 0]

My NOA2 is 06/03. My current case status is administrative processing.

I sent an inquiry to Consulate and received the reply as follows:

Thanks for your email. This office has sent an instruction package to your beneficiary on Jun 29, 2015 by EMS 1057874871312. Please follow the instructions accordingly after you have received the package.

Is this packet 3? Does this mean now I can go to ustraveldocs.com to schedule an interview?

you not need to wait for packet 3 to register an account at ustraveldocs.com/ph

I'm hoping you will read the instructions at that website, learn that if you pay the fee, you can self-schedule online. and the instruction sheet you need is right there at that website.

Darnell,

Yes, I already has an account on ustraveldocs.com

I am sorry but I still have the question:

The instruction package mentioned in Consulate email reply is the so called packet 3?

Because the Consulate website repeatedly says do not try to schedule the interview unless we are instructed to do so. I don't want to have any trouble here.

thanks.

Yes, the instruction package is package 3. Don't expect too much; in Frankfurt it was a letter with two sheets of papers. Not much of a "package"

You will find you're unable to schedule before you have received the letter and replied accordingly.

Thanks.

How do we reply to this packet? Is there a form or something in the packet?

[Darnell 8,478]

there are instructions on what to do inside the packet. for now, get a delivery sheet printed up on the citic bank thingie at ustraveldocs.com/cn

It's the one transit from your citic location to the IV Unit.

There's another one for transit from IV Unit to your CITIC location, but that one is handed in on interview day, used by the IV Unit after interview day.

did you see the language icon over at ustraveldocs.com/cn ? can have all in chinese, if you click the thing.

there's a lot of instructions for what to do, at ustraveldocs.com/cn - please use this weekend to read it all, all pages. if you just see '1 page' on that website, I'm sorry, that's not enough.

have you found a qq group of K-1 visa chasers? usually a new group gangs together once a month, chasing the appointments.

Yes, the express package that they sent will be packet 3.

You'll have to follow the instructions and send back the reply.

Thanks.

May I ask what is in the packet and what reply we need to do? Can we prepare the reply now to save time?

It's similar to this, but this is bit outdated...but you get the idea.

Ok, so China is one of the places where you don't send your documents in advance, but bring them to the interview.

DualityOneness,

I read this instruction and find similar ones on Consulate website. Seems it specifies the documents need to prepare for the interview. It doesn't say we need to send these documents to the Consulate before the interview.

Do we need to send copies all the documents listed back to the Consulate once we received the packet?

thanks.

DualityOneness, please refrain from providing this stale posting again. It is outdated (you can tell by the old consulate address given), and can only tend to confuse people trying to get the correct info the first time.

Here is some more recent info from ustraveldocs: http://ustraveldocs.com/cn/K1%20Instruction%20GSS%2007102013%20%20with%20new%20address.pdf

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Pitaya,

Do you know the answers to my last question?

thanks.

[Darnell 8,478]

hey - that's a ustraveldocs document, found on the ustraveldocs site.

just saying.

[Pitaya 2,577]

Sorry no, we went through the old consulate prior to the interface with ustraveldocs and the Guangzhou consulate.

However, browsing over the link that I provided to you, with the new consulate address, I would suggest that you follow the bold-black instructions given in the second paragraph.

From my recollection from my GUZ experience, it is best to follow their instructions explicitly.

Good luck on your immigration journey.
