Hello,

I have been trying to email the New Delhi Embassy to find out if there is a location online to download the Information Packages for K-1 Visa (Packets 3) similar to what the Mumbai Consulate offers at http://mumbai.usconsulate.gov/ivforms.html.

However, every time i send them an e-mail; even if I put "Request for Specific Information" in the subject, I still get this automated response:




Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Thanks sandip and doc_cute!

I guess I will have to wait to find out then. But I am serously thinking of using the Mumbai Packet 3 and just changing the Name and Address of the consulate. Did you packet 3 look like mumbai's with the exception of name/address of consulate?

The automated response is normal. I usually get a response within a day at the Mumbai Embassy. Maybe Delhi is a little backlogged.

I agree with doc_cute and the others, you can indeed use the Mumbai packet but please only do it after you know your case has been received in Delhi. If you send Packet 3 before then, they will NOT process your case and it will only confuse them. The confusion may even make your case processing longer! Wishing you the best for your case getting to Delhi SOON!

thanks everyone!

yes, i'll wait for Delhi to get the case first. I still have to have my fiancee get one more PCC, and the medical done; and thne we should be good with all the requirements.

Another question with using Mumbai's Packets 3 -

Should I reprint the Packets using Delhi's information (i have a version of adobe that lets me edit the pdf)
or should i simply cross out (using pen) the mumbai information and write in the delhi information
or perhaps I should put a sticker on top with delhi information
or maybe I need to leave the packet as is and just fill out and send?

Personally, I would not tamper with the Mumbai packet's info (like changing address etc). Hopefully when the time comes, you will get the correct Delhi packet. Or, you can send in the Mumbai checklist with a cover letter explaining how Delhi's checklist was not available. Besides the checklist, all other docs are identical (DS-156, DS-230 etc.).

Anyone who has gone through Delhi who has the correct packet saved on their computer? I have Chennai's packet 4 but that doesn't help you does it.

I attached a copy of checklist from Delhi embassy

Do you have a copy of that scanned somewhere so I can see what it looks like?

sandip,
