@PirataCoqui @ReyOfJakku Once is ready in the CEAC website you can email the embassy asking for next steps. Hopefully after that you will receive the P3 instructions.

Posting this here too for those that are not following the other thread (but you should 😎😞

 

Hola!  Nuestro P3 esta de camino a mi comprometido para que el adjunte sus cosas y lo entrege personalmente la proxima semana.  Aqui les comparto las cosas que puse en el cover letter y su orden dentro del paquete.  **NOTE:  If you need this translated, please let me know.  We did it in Spanish because my fiance would be signing the cover letter and we wanted to show he understood what everything meant (he does not speak a lot of Enligh yet).**

  • Carta de apoyo de padres de Peticionario

    • Incluimos esto porque nuestros padres no son muy tecnológicos y nuestra relacion no ha sido muy expuesta en las redes sociales pero queriamos demostrar que nuestros padres saben de la relación, que han interactuado con nosotros y que apoyan el compromiso y matrimonio.

    • Si haces una carta firmada por los padres, incluye una copia de licencia, DNI, etc. que pruebe que la firma es original.

  • Whatsapp call logs

  • Whatsapp screenshots

    • Si tienes otras cosas como Hangouts chats, Facebook, etc. también lo puedes incluir.  Nosotros tenemos suficiente en Whatsapp y no usamos redes sociales, por lo tanto no incluimos Hangouts chats.

Como solo pudimos vernos una vez, pensamos llevar pantallazos de Hangouts de planes que teninamos para ir a Punta Cana que fueron cancelados por la proximidad de la NOA2, una tarjeta de cumple que el envié este a~o por correo, planeamos ir juntos a la entrevista y llevar fotos adicionales que tengamos de los primeros dias antes de la visa.  Como consejo:  si no tienen suficiente pruebas de la relacion por limites de visitas, piensen en otras cosas como las cartas de cumple, cartas de apoyo de familiares, pantallazos, etc.

 

A veces el beneficiario o peticionario no es bueno en organizar los documentos (sea hombre o mujer), si estás en esa situación, piensa como pueden hacer para que la persona que es mas organizada y le sale mas natural haga la mayoría de los paquetes.  En nuestro caso, hicimos todo lo que pudimos para que el hiciera los trámites pero la documentación llegara online o yo la pudiera obtener online y poder tener lo más posible acá.  Lo poco que queda de agregar al P3 serán unas firmas, varias copias (como su pasaporte) y el paquete de la Dra. Grillo.  Le puse unos "sticky notes" donde debe ir todo para que todo esté organizado y pueda poner lo que falta sin problema.  Otro consejo:  Saquen una cuenta de Gmail juntos, así todo llega a una cuenta y ambos pueden entrar a manejar los documentos.  Pienso que esto ayudará con el proceso de AOS, green card, etc. porque es una cuenta solo para la documentación de los papeles nuestros y es mas fácil de organizar sin que se pierda entre otros e-mails.

 

Espero les sirva de ayuda!   Un estres menos.

Anyone here from Buenos Aires that delivered the P3 in person?  I would like to confirm whether or not the correct address is this:

(Ave. Cerviño 4320, 1425 Buenos Aires)

 

This is what the P3 instructions say.

That’s one adress and the other one can be Ave Colombia 4300. Both are the embassy adress. They are just different entries. The Ave Cerviño one is closed most of the time and they direct all the packets to Ave Colombia. 

Since you are delivering it yourself is not going to be a problem. You can go walking to both of them. If the Cerviño is closed you go to the other one.

Hmm, I have a question that maybe has been answered in this thread. But I just can't find the post. The question is about what happens in the days after the interview regarding the passport. If we choose to pick up the passport in person at the embassy (after getting approved, of course), do we have to make an appointment to pick it up? Or would we just show up to the embassy and ask for it?

 

(We haven't gotten the P3 email yet, but we are trying to decide in advance which option we will choose -- picking it up at the embassy, or having it mailed to Cordoba. Both options have some pros and cons for us.)

Have it mailed to DHL Córdoba. You don’t have to make an appointment and is free (you chose this option when you schedule the interview). He will have to go to the DHL office in Ayacucho street and pick the passport and packet there.

Yeah, we are leaning that direction. And you got your passport mailed to you really quickly, it sounds like! So that does sound like a good option.

It took about 5 days to arrive to DHL. It was a monday. And then I picked it up a Thursday because I wasn’t in Córdoba. It was really quick an easy.

We got the email from the embassy with the P3 instructions about a week after our application arrived at the embassy (we were in the April 29/30 batch).  So basically since May 13th we’ve been checking the web-site everyday and there are no appointments available.  Major bummer since we have all of our P3 paperwork ready to go.  Fingers crossed they post dates soon.  Just wanted to let you know I haven’t seen any available appointments and we check multiple times a day.

I did it in person, I anounsed myself as beneficiary for a k1 Visa, and I was there to deliver my p3 at the Colombia street entrance. They sent me to cerviño entrance, it's around the corner, but a bodyguard explained me they were not picking up packages on that entrance that day, so they made me go back to the Colombia entrance, on the window called US Citizens and something else. They will direct you just where, don't worry about it. 

 

If you packet3 is too big like mine, and is not able to pass through the window. A representative will just go out and take it, also they will do explosives and drug tests with a small tissue. That was my experience, fast and easy, I talked to them in English, but it is not necessary. 😊

You can email the embassy letting them know that you want to schedule the interview and there aren’t any available. Ask what you should do. It happened the same to me and I did what I just told you and they answered the next day saying they opened more. Let us know if you have any updates

So, we decided not to get the vaccinations with Dra. Grillo, but she gave us a paper for it.  She indicated he could choose to do them in USA without any issues of entry, and you guys have confirmed that in the forum.  But, can we do the vaccinations after the interview before the travel?  We thought that might be something we can still get done while we wait for the passport, etc.  Thoughts?
