Aww...they gave me one but there's no a subject of ds3025 on it,is that form calls ds3025 but just not mention on the paper?

Oh, have you done your medical for the visa already? I'm not really sure because I'm still waiting for NOA2 , but I just googled DS3025 and apparently this is how it looks? It says DS3025 in the down left corner...

Anyway, hope someone that has already gone through medical too can clarify it for you

Good luck!

(I am actually thinking about emailing the consulate to for the e version...)

[Helena05 24]

hello everybody!  So I will try to make a summary for what happened today at my visa interview  First my case was in Ready status since June 7th! I had my medical a week before my interview (this is how i chose to do). after I got my medical results I completed DS 160 sent it to the embassy, paid visa fee then called the embassy to make an appointment! What is great about the embassy in Bucharest you can schedule your interview really fast like in 2 days if you want .

Interview day:

- I got at the embassy at 12:30 ( my interview is at 1 pm).At exactly 1 pm security asking for our names to follow him inside. Very polite people at the embassy! checked my bag, kept my phone and gave me a number for the place they put my phone. then I got inside the embassy.

- very fast they told me to get to the window number 2 to give them my passport. after it window number 5 called my name to do my fingerprints( very funny american guy was taken them). then at the window number 3 they called again my name and an romanian consul (very serious lady) took my birth certificate+ copy, affidavit of support+ supporting documents, police certificates(I had 2 ), and all my evidence of relationship( give everything you have it will help, but make sure is a quality evidence) then she asked me if i ever was married an if i lived in other countries then those two. then she said wait for your final interview with american consul.

- after 5 minutes window 8 opens and a very nice lady was reviewing the first file (wasn't mine) we could see everything is going on there:) then in 5 minutes she calls first girl after 10 minutes they got her approved! 

- after another 5 minutes I can recognize my papers she was looking careful at them didn't smile at all what worried me  

- in 10 minutes she is asking my name( oh gosh here it is ) so this is how it starts my interview. I greeted her and with a big smile I said" I'm sorry mam but while you were looking at my papers you didn't smile at all, I was hoping you would" she start laughing and said " oh no, I was just checking everything" so the questions she asked me " where I leaved other places than Romania, if I have ANY criminal records, tickets, arests, If I ever been married or have kids" then she asked about our relationship" tell me about how your relationship started, every step of it, when we met in person, where and for how long, if i met his family, if he met mine, if we have some wedding plans" and that's it! she said "everything looks fine for me, I will approve your visa "  

Tips for those who will have their interview soon:

- be nice and polite, smile it always helps

- make eyes contact if you see they are looking right at your face( all interview she looked straight at my face every second of it) 

- try to be relax, its fine if you don't remember right away something 

- give details only if they are asking for

-be careful they can ask the same question twice,don't panic

- make nice jokes and try to be confident 

Hope this review will help someone! good luck guys! everything will be just fine

BTW, we do not need to submit DS160 to receive Packet 3, right? And Packet 3 is automatically sent from the consulate via mail in normal situations without us doing anything? Thanks!

I just saw your timeline and noted that it only took one day to receive your packet 3 after consular received your case. Was your packet 3 in Email?  Did you request that? Thanks!

[janet3 1,170]

On my way to the mailbox today I tried to remind myself not to worry, not to be upset....that it would be here sooner or later. That the NOA2 did in fact exist and I would sooner or later receive mine  (because almost everyone will). I have to admit....it gets harder to convince myself day after day after day. 

I opened the mailbox and grabbed the usual daily mail....pizza coupons and catalogs....and there it was. The Department of Homeland Security. The coupons and catalogs fell to the ground as I ripped opened the letter.....

Approved y'all. 169 days and today I received my NOA2.

Approved

when i checked my nvc status back in June I saw that my case was saying ready only after one day my fiance called and asked for our case number, my status went overnight from " at NVC"  to "READY" we didn't have " in Transit " status at all  after I guess 3 days my fiance ( petitioner) received an email with packet 3( not me) and he sent it to me

strange, but the status changed already to administrative processig...

 

Your visa case is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. This processing can take several weeks. Please follow any instructions provided by the Consular Officer at the time of your interview. If further information is needed, you will be contacted. If your visa application is approved, it will be processed and mailed/available within two business days. Under the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act, Immigrant Visas for "Diversity Visas" cannot be issued after September 30th of the year in which you were selected to apply for a Diversity Visa. For example, entrants into the Diversity Visa Program in Fall of 2011 were selected for Diversity Visa 2012 Program, and selectees MUST apply and receive their visa prior to September 30, 2012 otherwise they lose eligibility to receive a Diversity Immigrant Visa, regardless of additional administrative processing. In addition, please note that some immigrant visas may not be able to be issued if the annual numerical limit for that category has been reached. 

For more information, please visit TRAVEL.STATE.GOV.

 

have no idea what it means...but think we just should wait for e-mail from embassy, right?
