Additional Info? there is a trick to make things go faster:
I emailed the councilate in guayaquil after finding out fron the NVC that the packet was sent to the councilate. the councilate in guayaquil told me that if the packet 4 is not recieved in an acceptable amount of time...I can download the packet 4 from there website (http://usembassy.state.gov/guayaquil/wwwfivk1p4.pdf) fill out and complete all instructions, purchase pin and call to make my appointment when all is ready.
So when the file was sent from NVC to the councilate i then had the GYQ case number. with that we were able to do the medical the same day :-D . got the medical results 3 days later, in these 3 days got the birth certificate (photocopy fron registery book with seal on it) and the police record. when we recieved the medical report I called the council number from the packet 4 using the pin I bought for $12 via visa over the phone. they asked if we had recieved the packet 4 yet...I told them no but had recieved an email stating i could download it fron their website...we had everything done and got our interview date for 2 weeks later without yet receiving the packet 4 (wich showed up 2 days later LOL ).so from NVC sending out the case to the counsilate till our interview date was just 2 weeks. lot's faster than the usual 3 - 4 months :-)).

Also you will notice the packet 4 says to do the medical 2 weeks before the interview date...it's wrong!!! they will not give you the inteview date until you have already done the medical exam, so as soon as you have everything ready and the case no. from the NVC do the medical, pay the $100 at BofG and you can make your appointment over the phone!!
