Hi All - a few dumb questions as I am trying to complete the packet 3 questions blink.gif

-Can the DS-156, DS-156K, DS-157 and DS-230P1 forms be printed and submitted on A4 paper, obviously the US use LETTER paper and all the documentation they have sent me is printed on LETTER paper.

-Do people tend to use recorded delivery to return the completed forms, or has standard 1st delivery proved OK?

-Do I need to attach the passport size photos to the two copies of DS-156, or will that happen during the visa interview using the two passport photos I have been asked to provide (sorry sounds obvious, but it doesn't seem to be spelled out).

Thanks to anyone who can add anything o these questions smile.gif

A4 is fine.

I used registered delivery, it was fine. There have been some queries regarding the completed packet 3 ending up in a PO BOx, but those members have started getting interview dates now, so it isn't a problem.

Varies. I took mine with me to the consulate and they did it. Others here have attached them themselves. Doesn't seem to matter too much.

The main thing to remember: Dont panic about Packets 3
whereabouts for at least ten days after you mailed it out. See signature.
