Wow! You ARE organized!

Looks like you have everything you need - Steve didn't sign an updated letter of intent, so I don't think you need one. They didn't even ask him for mine!

Good Job Hannah!

thanks, i am still printing of the photos for each trip which wont take long, just hope they dont mind the quality being a bit naff but you can still see its us. and i have to find someone to do some more passport photos cos i just realised mine are too old and they have them already. does anyone know if all snappy snaps do usa passport photos or is it just the london ones.

I got my hotel booked for the night though, bloody pricey but its directly opposite the embassy so i can role out of bed and run over and not get lost. as per my usual london trips

I'm pretty sure it's all of them, but if not, there are a ton of places around here by the embassy that do them so you can always get them when you come up for the interview... Good luck!

Does anyone have the email address of the embassy? I want to chase up our Packet 3. I know it's been xmas, but it should be here already! Thanks!

[villaspurs 65]

Here's the email address: LondonConsular@state.gov

Our packet 3 took forever, and I'm sure the holidays won't help that! Also be prepared for a lengthy turn-around once you send it in--two to three weeks is standard, I believe!

Seriously? I was hoping for a day or two!! do you think it'll make any difference if i hand deliver it? i'm right next door.... i'm just worried they might lose that way! not sure what's best but it'll save on the special delivery postage! Thanks for the email!

You can also call the US State Department: (202) 663-1225 - press 1, then 0. They can let you know if P3 was sent.

it will prob still take them about two to three weeks to process and give you a date and send back.

for us i sent mine to them and it was delivered on the 26th nov, a week later dos confirmed that i was eligable to aply but no date given as yet on the 15th of dec i received the p4 with date in mail, so two or two and half was right for me not including how long it took to post to them which was one day.

i have two new ones from Vito, just in case, even though the general concencus was they would proberbly not ask for it, my noa2 runs out on the 23rd and some have posted that they was asked for it because theirs had expired. so i just want to cover my a$$$

I'm not sure they allow hand deliveries. I remember somebody trying it before by sending bicycle courier and it was refused. They have the contract with SMS and are pretty strict for security reasons I think.

Hannah-

4/affidavit of support form (notarized) plus three years of of w2s and a letter from his work on company letterhead signed about length of employment and good standing.

Do you have the income tax returns or transcripts? The W2s are statements of earnings that go with the tax returns, but are not the same thing.
