hi,
does anybody from new delhi area waiting for their interview dates. my k1 petition was sent to embassy on nov 7, 2007, anybody have any idea how long they take to scheduled interview at new delhi embassy.
thanks.

My petition is at NVC waiting to be dispatched to Delhi this week. Dont't wait for them to send packet-4 try to down load forms from Delhi site and get your DS-230 ASAP and submit it before 15 th so you may get January interview.

can we do that before embassy contact my fiancee. if yes do we have to drop it personally.

Yes! fill it out take it there and submit it, do not have to wait for them.

Guys, I've done searches in the archives, but I'm a little confused and I'm hoping someone can help me out. I need clarification and/or confirmation of the following (because I'm confused about a lot of things!):

1. Once the Embassy gets your file from NVC, can you just print out the DS-230 form from the online link and submit it to the embassy before you get your Packet 3? (in order to get a quicker interview date)

2. If you can do that, is there some number that the Embassy assigns to your file that you have to wait to get (or can call them and get) that must be put on the DS-230?

3. If you send the DS-230 earlier, do you then later submit what's in the Packet 3 checklist to VFS office? (and do you include a copy of the DS-230 you already sent in?)

4. What's the Packet 3 checklist? New Delhi Embassy doesn't seem to say explicitly. It appears the information is mentioned in the Packet 4 page, but I don't want to miss anything and am wondering if there's just a list of what's in Packet 3 somewhere. (Is the medical a part of Packet 3 or 4? Is the police certificate part of Packet 3 or 4?)

5. Is the timeline that once you submit Packet 3 information, then you get Packet 4 information telling you when the interview is and what you should bring to the interview?

6. If the medical and the police certificates are a part of Packet 3, any worries about sending in DS-230 before you get Packet 3 because your interview gets scheduled before those items are done and maybe those items might take more time to do (I have no idea how long they take to do)?

I know there are a lot of questions, but I'm getting cross-eyes (and brained) reading everything and trying to figure out what happens and what we need to do. Thanks to anyone who can help in advance!

hi,

Put your same questions in the K3 forum , you will get replies soon. I cant say about K3... its tough for me, but we can drop the paper work personally and dont have to wait for the embassy to send us as all is there on their website.

Applying for a K3 or K4 Visa

The embassy or consulate where you, the spouse of an American citizen, will apply for a K-3 visa must be in the country where your marriage took place. Here are the procedures to apply. The embassy or consulate will let you know any additional things to do, such as where you need to go for the required medical examination. The following is required:



A passport
Two completed DS-156, Nonimmigrant Visa Application forms
Two completed DS-3052 Supplemental Application Forms
Two nonimmigrant visa photos (two inches/50 X 50 mm square, showing full face, against a light background)
Police Certificate
Court and prison records
Birth certificates
Registered marriage certificate and other proof of relationship. Note that a deed of marriage is not sufficient proof.
Proof of relationship with any child (K-4) visa applicant.
Proof of the legal termination of any previous marriage: death certificate of spouse, or decree of divorce or annulment
A medical examination.
Evidence of Support: You must show evidence that you will not become a public charge in the U.S. A completed I-134 Affidavit of Support form along with supporting documents from your sponsor is helpful in proving that your sponsor has sufficient financial resources.
A demand draft for the Visa Application fee.
The consular officer may ask for additional information. It is a good idea to bring marriage photographs and other proof that the marriage is genuine.

Documents in foreign languages should be translated into English. Take clear, legible photocopies of civil documents, such as birth and marriage certificates, to the visa interview. Original documents can then be returned to you.
