Packet 3

[Dar&Shan 3]

Ok, we are getting our Packet 3 finished up, but I have one question- Form DS 156K has a section that says you have to attach your birth certificate, police certificate, etc.... do we send those in with Packet 3 now? Please help!

we put all the forms they requested that we could with the packet 3. ALL PHOTOCOPIES OF COURSE!!! Keep your originals. When we had our interview, we were surprised how little we had to supply to them but still it was worth it to be prepared.. you don't know what they might misplace from their file or want to see a copy of. I am not sure if you are through Montreal.... if you are going to Montreal... you also need to do the electronic DS 160, and include the printed out DS160 confirmation with your submission. I was not able to upload a photo with the DS160 so I stapled a ppassport photo to the DS 160 confirmation.

If you are not a KVisa... disregard the above I guess!!!

you take them with you in the interviw

in fact what we did was the following '

A primary folder should contain all of the documentation requested by the Consulate. Generally, this would be the Consulate checklist form OF-169. Early on this process we have you a sample form OF-169 checklist to help get a head start on document preparations. More recently, the Consulate would have provided our fiancée with its own, similar checklist.

The second folder may contain any items not specifically requested by the Consulate on its checklist, such as further evidence of your relationship and anything else your fiancée may want to bring. Evidence of your relationship includes such things as additional emails, phone bills, phone card logs, extra photos together, letters, cards, engagement ring receipt, plane tickets, boarding passes from more recent trips, and money transfer receipts. We collected some of these items from you early on. The items that we did not use as part of our filing should have been returned to you by this time. We encourage you to prepare this information in some form of a portfolio or album so it is well organized and presents well. At the interview your fiancée should have these comprehensive documents to show your relationship through to the time of the interview.

The only item on the form OF-169 checklist list involving you is the financial documentation. By this time, we should have prepared and sent to you a completed financial “I-134” package (the “financials”) for your review and signature. You must forward the financials on to your fiancée if you have not already done so since they are needed at the time of the interview. If you are mailing the financial packet to your fiancée, you should also include any further evidence of your relationship
