Hi everyone,

I'm wanting to try get a rough estimate for this part of the process - from case being sent from NVC to when the consulate will send you the packet 3 instructions. (I tried to send them my packet 3 documents and got told I had to wait for them to send me the instructions)

Love to hear from anyone who has recently gone through this process

Thanks

What do you know... 15 minutes after posting I get an email confirming packet 4 and time to book interviews and figure out the logistics of getting there.

The good news is they have interviews as early as 3rd August (for those who will be booking soon :dancing: )

Can I ask if you sent your packet 3 info immediately after submitting documents to NVC? I was wondering the same thing if I could just send the packet 3 documents as i just submitted the larger package to NVC last night. I appreciate any feedback you might have.

Thanks

Sure, I'd say after NVC gives you the case number and you track it and it shows 'ready' (approx 1 week) you can start trying to send it, they'll either accept it if they are ready or respond that you have to wait, if like me you get the 'you have to wait response' just forward the email in a few days time and eventually they'll send packet 4
