Oh, by the way - we made our appointment for December 27th. Just booked my flight today.  Cost me a pretty penny but I will make it work!! Nervous, excited, scared, overwhelmed! Can't believe this is happening!

DS-160 must be completed prior to scheduling the interview. DS-160 can be completed now even before the P3 is mailed.

 

 

Usually you will not receive the P3 letter in the mail. Do an online service request. They will respond typically in 2 -3 days with the instruction (P3). You will need to submit D-160 and pay the visa fee, then schedule the medical afterward. Technically, you will need the P3 to complete the medical exam, although some have gotten by with just the interview confirmation. I wouldn't risk it and would just request that they email it to you via: https://vn.usembassy...a-inquiry-form/  When using the form be sure to add in the comments section the last 4 digits of your SSN or they will email you back asking for it which causes further delays.

 

Here is some information including the Embassy P3 for you to get a head start

Hi,

 

I have a question, we just received the Packet 3, and I have done the DS 160 also emailed them of the list. How long does the Packet 4 arrives? Will it also be in the mail (sent to petitioner or applicant)? or will it be emailed?. Although I can see it online now, but it said on packet 3 to wait for that until we can schedule an interview. 

 

Montreal, Canada Consulate

 

Hoping to hear from any of you soon!

Typically, packet 4 arrives as an email within 48 hrs of you sending them a packet 3 response. Suggest that you fill out your timeline so that others may benefit and see how your case has progressed.
