Couple weeks ago, found packet 3 at the US Embassy-Korea website using the site map. It listed what documents to bring to the interview and the requirements for them. On Tuesday (10th), we received an email from NVC that our case was sent to the embassy, so our status on CEAC is now "In Transit". That day we started filling out DS-160 and although many folks here said to wait for cases to arrive at the embassy, we went ahead and submitted it the following day 😖. That same day, my fiancée was able to pay the MRV fee using the Electronic Funds Transfer option listed in ustraveldocs Korea site. Couple hours later, she was able to schedule the interview and then made the medical exam appointment.... Hopefully status will be "Ready" on CEAC before the interview date. Don't be like us, folks!!! Although I'm excited that we're so close to being together, my anxiety has spiked due to doing things out of order. 🤞

Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly, our consulate told us we have to wait for the packet before scheduling anything.

P3 for me is just to fill the DS160, passport scanned copy and a checklist. 

Canada looks like this: https://ca.usembassy.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2016/07/Packet3Instructions-K1.pdf 

 

Yup, I sent the P3 and they sent me the P4 to book interview. Again, every country seem very different XD just to make things more complicated

What do you send out in the P3.. do you fill a form and send out or just send them the documents you have

Just did the DHL hack mentioned in the shared Google Doc and looks like our paper version should be delivered to the embassy next week. Sweet!

I might not wait for the email because I already know what to do. I am in a whatsapp group for Haitians and all the interview days for Juin are filled. I might as well just go on and do it. 

Do you mind sharing the WhatsApp group link in private? I had someone recently ask me if I knew of any Haitian WhatsApp groups, so I can pass it along Thanks🙂

Yea, for Canada, once I got my case number from NVC, I fill out the DS-160 (like everyone said, save at every page. They log you out quick) 

End of the form, you'll need to upload a US passport size photo, then you'll get a barcode confirmation page. 

 

I sent that page, color scanned passport, and we have a checklist to what we will bring to interview (we don't need it now, but I have to check I will have them ready) 

So stressful lol now my fiance is getting the I-134 ready, there's a new edition for me 04/25/22

Oh thanks 

do you send them anything or just gather the said documents and present them when you go for the interview 

I prepared all the needed documents for interview. Waiting for the medical now, once I get the results, I send them the Notice of Readiness then they can book me for an interview. Did you get your case number yet?

My case status says ready also, I emailed the Haitian Embassy and they said we have to wait to get the email or packet we can not schedule or do anything till then. And they have no time frame. Try emailing them. This week my case says “READY” hopefully next week I get the email.

Check similar time lines too. That can give you an idea. 

my case has been ready for interview since march. Every time i inquire its the same "wait for the letter of instructions".
