Barbados Embassy -

We are sending packet 3 soon and I am confused!

www.barbados.usembassy.gov/iv-k_1_visas.html

Instructions from the Barbados website (above) state the following steps after beneficiary receives instructions(Packet3):

-Complete and send in DS-230 Part I

-Begin assembling necessary documents

Do not send anything to the Embassy. Bring your documents to the interview. Before making an appointment, make sure you have all the necessary documents.

It goes on to say that the DS156 (2copies), DS156K and DS157 should also be brought to interview.

So, is the DS-230 the only document sent back to Barbados before interview?

Also, does he (beneficiary) complete 1 DS 156 ONLINE and make a copy (with barcode)vs. completing two separate online forms - I assume so, but just checking.

Thanks so much for any assistance. I read so much that I think I confused myself!

Anyone deal with Barbados Embassy recently?

DS 230 is sent to the embassy before the interview and for the DS 156 just fill it out online and print 2. Hope this helps. Good luck with everything. Hope that you get through
