While this is good advice , most of the documents needed, at this point of the process, will be generated from the beneficiary.

Here is a link for information on the consulate in Bogota. It lets you know what is needed and has other links with good information for you.

It takes about 3 days for the case to arrive at the embassy. So send them an email on Friday or Monday of next week to find out if they have it. If they do, they will send you the K Visa Instructions Package via email. Just follow the instructions on how to register on the link provided, pick your DHL destination, pay for the visa and pick your interview date. If you hurry, you might be able to make your appointment for August.

For more info regarding the process in Colombia you can check out the Colombia Club thread.

But wouldn't it take longer than that? Maybe my understanding is wrong. I thought that:

1) Processing center approves K-1 and send you an email (like the one above) telling you that they have approved it.

2) Processing center mails your approval packet Visa and approval documentation) to NVC (timeline 1-3 weeks for NVC to receive and process this)

3) NVC mails your Visa packet to Embassy (timeline 1-2 weeks for embassy to receive and process it I guess??)

Now after all of those steps the embassy will have the packet and an interview can be scheduled. Am I misunderstanding what occurs? Thanks because I'm in same boat as the OP - my NOA2 email arrived Jul 18.
