Pete received Packet 3 in the mail, and has his medical scheduled for October 9th in London. We are a bit confused with the packet 3, and what to send.

It is my understanding that he needs to download and fill out the following forms:

STEP 1

DS230- Application for immigrant visa and alien registration (biographic data)-Complete pages 1 and 2 only.

DS156- Non immigrant visa application in DUPLICATE/complete but don't sign

DS156K (non-immigrant fiance visa supplement to form 156)

DS157- Supplementary non immigrant visa application to be completed by all male applicants age 16-45 plus all male & female applicants age 16 and over who hold a passport form.

STEP 2

Plus the affadavit of support, he must submit 2 more color photographs, send in his police certificate, medical examination, etc.

Step 3 was to schedule the medical

Step 4 complete checklist, sign form, and mail in all the forms

So what exactly does Pete mail in for Packet 3?? I thought he had to take the affadavit and other supporting evidence with him to the interview, does he have to mail it? :help:

Thank you in advance.

C&P - I've mailed off the 4 DS forms that you mention plus a cover letter and the completed checklist that was in the packet.

It is my understanding that you only mail in the forms and checklist now, then take all the proof of relationship stuff, photos, police cerificate and affadavit etc to the interview.

Scheduled my medical today for 3rd October.

Getting through on the phone to Knightsbridge Doctors is a bit of a nightmare.......took me about 20 goes to get through (Mind you it was monday morning so maybe that's a busy time for them). The woman I spoke to was South African by the sound of it and she was very helpful.

:D
