When I sent my husband's DS-230 to the Embassy, I neglected to include a cover page. I heard about having to include a bar-coded cover page. There was no mention of that in the K-3 packet. Should I have written a letter with the NVC Case Number (KNG2007XXXXX)? Please advise.

Um...When my fiance sent in his DS-0230 to the embassy, we did include a cover letter. But the we didn't include anything with a bar-code. I know that the DS-156 you have to generate a bar-code. But not the DS-0230. Then again, we are doing K-1 visa.

No, a bar code is not required because you are filing the K3. The bar code cover sheet is suppose to be attached w/the DS-230 IF you are filing for the CR-1/IR-1 visa. The form is provided from NVC.

Did you include a letter with the DS-230? I simply put the DS-230 in the envelope and sealed it. Since the Embassy has no record of receiving it, I think I should have included a note. What do you think?

Anna,

Thanks for the information. I hope that I did not delay the process by simply putting the DS-230 in an envelope. Perhaps, I should have written a short note.

You should be fine just follow-up w/the Embassy. Also please updated your timeline or add one in your signature. It will be helpful for others.
