Waiting for to receive Packet 3 letter from NVC

[rickalamo02 3]

I have called Ciudad Juarez embassy and they said they sent the Packet 3 letter to me on May 28. Even though we have created the account on the CSC Visa Information website and paid for the Visa, have our MRV receipt # and submitted the DS-260, they said we still need to wait until i received the "packet 3/appointment letter"

They said it can take 1-3 months to receive the "packet 3/appointment letter"

Is this normal?

Do i need to contact my congressman again to try and expedite?

That letter is needed at the ASC appointment, medical and interview. Those that never receive the letter have been able to show up early before any of their appointments and have the letter printed out for them at the consulate's information desk.

It is not needed to fill out the forms and schedule the appointments.

My husband did just what Jay-Kay said. We never received our letter from Juarez, so he went to the consulate information window before his medical, biometrics and interview appointments and they printed his letter for him without a problem.

Thanks Jay-Kay & Jenyadenise for your comments, i'm skeptical and nervous about that option, but i'll talk over it with my fiance and see what we decide.

Would she be able to get the "appointment letter" from a consulate that is closer to her, for example Guadalajara? or would it have to be printed at Ciudad Juarez?

[KayDeeCee 4,893]

Only at Juarez.

Thanks for your help Jay-Kay & Jenyadenise, i contacted my congressman today and they were able to emailed me the appointment letter from Ciudad Juarez embassy. My fiance was able to schedule the ASC in Guadalajara and she will have the medical at Ciudad Juarez
