Sorry, I have used the Search Forum section to search for info. on packet 3 and 4 but it say s'Error occurred' and won't let me search.

So could someone please tell me what's in the packet 3 and 4, so I can prepare? I have sent off for my police cert, long birth cert, filled out a DS-230 downloaded from the NVC site. Anything else I can do?

Many thanks for helping me.
