Are they even doing K-1 interviews in Mumbai?  Most consulates are not.

I'm afraid that you are stuck. According to U.S. Visas (state.gov) they are processing emergency cases only. It's the P3 packet you are waiting for. Few embassies use the 3 & 4 packet system. It's still a game of waiting.

Thank you Greenbaum, I contacted us consulate Mumbai through email  and got reply as well, they told me to wait till I will receive packet 4 from them or any email  stating to schedule my appointment.....In India there will be no packet 3 as far as I  concern .....only packet 4

 

Note :I have observed  few Visa journey  friends are already booked interview at Mumbai  for k1  in January........moreover  in email  they told they are starts  schedule k1 visa interview procedure

Here is the letter that you will receive from Mumbai Embassy. Read it over carefully and follow the instructions. Another member of VJ added some additional information contained below which outlines what he experienced.

Once you received your case number from NVC,  I would recommend you fill out the DS-160 form and submit. Some say the packet 3 letter is nothing just a waste of time the same thing they have mention which you easily get from the USCIS website when you called the clinics to book your medical appointment date they will ask you have you received your packet letter or not. Just say yes and booked the appointment date however you will receive that letter within 2 weeks the day you will get your NVC number.

 

Go on the USCIS website make your account with a password and then pay your fees to Citibank or Axis bank. They will give you a reference number. With that number, you can book your biometric and interview appointment date. The fees are 18,500 and for medical but I recommend that you carry 20,000 with you in the event you need more. Be sure to keep at least 7 days gap between medical and interview.

Here is a topic in another forum where those from the Mumbai Consulate are applying with good information.

If you find anything not up to date or the information is wrong, please share your findings. Please compare the date of the P3 of mine with the date from your copy, once you receive yours from your embassy. Keep in mind that I try and be factual with my information, but I can't do it on my own and that's where you come in and can give back to the community those who come behind you. Without others ahead of you, I would not be able to provide this to you.  I can only share factual information if folks like you continue to be my eyes and ears for your embassy. I wish you much success in your visa journey.
