There was a long line to get into the Embassy, so best to play it safe and arrive 30-45 minutes early to get through security. When my fiancee checked in with the first officer, they asked her for the original application fee payment receipt. Of course, she did not have that b/c we mailed that document to the Embassy with Packet 3 per their instructions. So apparently, the Embassy lost it. We have been careful to make copies of everything we send, so she gave them a copy of the payment receipt, but was then told it would be up to the interviewing officer whether they would accept a copy. So no acknowledgment on their part that they made a mistake in losing the document b/c they had everything else we sent with Packet 3. When she was called up for the interview, the interviewer glanced through her documents, said no problem with the receipt copy, no questions, visa approved. Visa arrived in 7 days to a Bangkok address, so when they say 3-7 days, assume 7 even if you're in Bangkok.
