Hello All! I sent in our Packet 3 via email and via Fed Ex. I received a letter from the Kingston consulate saying that they have used the information I sent and updated the records and that we should expect an interview letter in the postal mail within four weeks. Is this normal? Will it come via email or via postal mail? This thing is dragging on tooooo long!

You are able to email them and request that they send you packet 4 via email. Aside from JA post being crappy, my fiance and I requested it email because his work schedule doesn't coincide with when the post office is open. He's yet to have gotten it in the post (we were approved the 1st of this month). It took several weeks and incessant emails to consulate to get it by email but it was worth it.

Be sure to include 2nd Inquiry- your case number in the subject line. Best wishes!

Give them a few days to answer... more than likely you may have to.

I want to ask you a question. I was approved on July 5. I have not received packet 3. Should I just fill out the form 230 online or should I just wait until they contact me? Also the information on form 230 isn that my information or my fiancee? Thanks in advance.

I want to ask you a question. I was approved on July 5. I have not received packet 3. Should I just fill out the form 230 online or should I just wait until they contact me? Also the information on form 230 isn that my information or my fiancee? Thanks in advance.

We filled out and signed the DS 230 part 1 and scanned it and emailed it to them along with his Passport ID page, the NOA2 and a cover letter requesting an interview date. As long as you have a case number and it has left the NVC you should go ahead and move forward.
