Packet 3 Cover Letter???

[Julie&Chris 1]

Hey guys,

So I am getting all the last details just to make sure everything is sorted for my packet 3.

The website says:

"you are required to complete the Notification of Applicant(s) Readiness, Form 2001 and mail it to the Immigrant Visa Unit together with a covering letter containing your email address, if applicable, date of your wedding and date of the medical examination."

I am sending my 2001 WITH my other documents so how exactly did you guys write up your cover letter?

• My medical examination is/was scheduled for the (day) of (month) 2011 with Knightsbridge Doctors.

That's what we sent in (we're IR-1), you'd just add your intended date of marriage if you have one yet. I don't know if this is any help to you?

I made up a wedding date a month earlier than what I hoped for. If you say your wedding is next May, they will put off your interview in favor of those with sooner weddings in an effort to get them to the church on time. That's a theory.

My newest theory is send the DS-2001 to arrive just after your medical has arrived there. Then your dates and readiness is fresh at hand. They say "well everything is here now" and crank out the interview. I'm starting to wonder if your readiness get's buried with the application forms and instead of speeding things up, you are sorta forgotten about. They may put the readiness form in Step 3 for a reason---because getting that last is more efficient for them. A random theory....

If you make/made up a wedding date to get it through earlier, will they not need to see proof of the wedding date or do they not ask? and if you did make up a date how did you pick a date not knowing when your interview would be or how long the process of getting an interview date ? so what do you suggest ? doing things in what order and when from booking medical to interview?
