Hello fellow VJs. I am a k1 visa applicant and I have not received my appointment letter or packet from the US Embassy. My NOA2 has been approved last February and I already have my Case number. I have also done my medical and scheduled an appointment but still no letter from the embassy. I just want to confim if I need to bring any other DS forms in the interview like DS 156, DS 156k, DS157? :innocent: I see many post regarding these forms, but the US embassy website only indicates that I should bring a copy of the DS160 confimation. Please help!

Thanks in advance! (L):dance:

Most never receive the letter from the embassy so ... It is not needed for anything.

Follow the flashing arrow below in my signature for complete details on the K-1 process.

Follow the embassy instructions letter as to what is required for the interview, link to the instructions letter in my link below. (Only DS-160 needed)

07-20-2007 = Phoned Immigration Officer; got WAC#; where's NOA1?

09-25-2007 = Touch (first-ever).

09-28-2007 = NOA1, 23 days after their 45-day promise to send it (grrrr).

10-20 & 11-14-2007 = Phoned ImmOffs; "still pending."

12-11-2007 = 180 days; file is "between workstations, may be early Jan."; touches 12/11 & 12/12.

04-29-2008 = Fiancee's 4-min. consular interview, 8:30 a.m.; much evidence brought but not allowed to be presented (consul: "More proof! Second interview! Bring your fiance!").

Hello again guys! I have a question regarding the DS160 form. I have submitted the form online and Im just waiting for my Interview date, however upon reading some blogs I think I have forgotten to include my educational background or add the other employers that I have had. I just indicated my most recent employer which Im employed for 3 yrs. Will this be any problem? Please advice. Thanks! :cry:

Not a big deal, the DS-160 is used for many non-immigrant type of visas, in your case the work/education information isn't as vital. If it worries you complete a new DS-160 then print out the new confirmation page for SLEC and USEM
