I'm running into a difficult situation trying to schedule our interview at the Jakarta consulate. We cant find out how to pay the DS 160 fee - the packet 3 instructions lead us to a website, but when we try to pay it just gives us a confirmation sheet with barcode, no way to take payment or schedule an appointment? The embassys answers just redirect back to the original instructions. Anyone else had this issue?

From when we did this three years ago, here is what my wife remembers.

 

She went to the bank called Standard Chartered Bank and paid the fee there.  She thinks you can also do it at Permata Bank.  I believe you are supposed to take the confirmation sheet with the barcode to the bank, where you can pay it is my understanding.  You will have to fill out a special visa form/slip there when going in so the government knows they got the money.  Go to the bank and ask them, they go through this often.  You need to bring the receipt that you paid with you to the embassy (along with all the other files you will take to your interview).  They should ask for the proof of payment when you go to the interview.

 

Remember this was three years ago, so it might not be accurate anymore, but it is what we had to do so I hope it works for you too.  Try calling each of those banks and asking, they go through it routinely.  Also couldn't help to call the US Embassy if possible as they should know too.

Hey all. Is this topic is still going? I'm the beneficiary and we have received our NOA 1 for K1 Visa on April 2018. 

 

And @ALIENRJ187 I saw your timeline and wow!! You received the visa super fast. Hopefully this year the process will be going smoothly too. USCIS is still working on November 2017 fillers now.

@tirzajogja we were a November filer and got our USCIS approval in July. Start to finish was 8 months. We did have an RFE which added 3 weeks. Best guess is that you are looking at  Nov/Dec approval/NOA2

@SSNT9777 check out this link: http://www.ustraveldocs.com/id/id-niv-visafeeinfo.asp

 

You can pay cash face to face at a CIMB Niaga branch, or transfer from your Indonesian bank account. On your DS-160 confirmation page, you will be given a unique 16-digit number for the transfer.

Wow! Congratulations on your approval. Good luck on your preparation for medical check up and interview!😃 Yeah, the estimation of our NOA 2 was changed though, from Oct 31-Nov 4 to Nov 7-12. Are you the petitioner or beneficiary?

Hi all! I wonder if anyone can tell me the requirements for marriage license obtaining. Would SSN and KTP required? 

 

Am in this crazy waiting period for the NOA2 and thought it'd be good if I start gathering information and documents  for later process. Maybe doing this will keep me from wanting to chew on my pet. 😅

 

Thank you!
