It took about 2 weeks to get packet 3 from the London Embassy but I booked a medical for about 3 weeks after I had the LND number with Knightsbridge doctors http://www.visamedicals.info/us.asp . Make sure your fiance has the Police Certificate since that takes about 40 days after receipt of the request by the police. There are scans of the UK packet 3 here http://www.visajourney.com/gallery/thumbna...y&uid=30186 and the up to date forms referenced in Packet 3 can be found here http://www.state.gov/m/a/dir/forms/ . You can order your tax transcripts here http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=110571,00.html . Having the required documents ready in advance helps to speed things up.

Congratulations and good luck

hi,

thanks for that, im in the uk, my OH is in USA, i have the police report

my OH has to send me (so i am lead to believe) a carbon copy of the original petition sent to vermont...yes? (gawd...this was over 900 sheets of paper...poor postie! lol) what else does he need to send me and how soon does he need to send it? he will probably be using DHL.

anyone have any estimates on how soon my interview date would be, if say...i got packet three off a day or so after recieving it?

He needs to send you the notarised affidavit of Support, some pay stubs, a letter from his employer stating his employment details (pay, permanent/contract, full/part time and length of service) and tax transcripts from the IRS or a copy of his tax return with the supporting documentation. I was asked for his tax return and they wanted to keep a copy of it. Read the scans of packet 3 and they will tell you exactly what you need. Most people seem to get an interview date around 6 weeks after they return Packet 3 but it depends on whether you put in a specific wedding date. If you have a wedding planned then they will do their best to accommodate you.

I phoned up the Department of State around 8 days after returning my Packet 3 and they were able to tell me my interview date. Calling the US Embassy in the UK is more expensive.
