Just letting everyone know we got approved this week

CEAC status is now ready, so I'm expecting packet 3 from the embassy soon. Can you tell me what was in it? Any documents I need to get from the petitioner?

Also, regarding the medical: did you have to get any additional vaccinations done?

Also, regarding the medical: did you have to get any additional vaccinations done?

Packet 3 is a checklist that they'll ask you to complete and send back. Along with it, there's an online DS-160 form that you need to fill out. You'll also need to forward the completion confirmation to the embassy. Once they receive that, they'll send Packet 4. Packet 4 will essentially just tell you how to schedule your interview.

The checklist will tell you all the documents that you will need. It'll ask you to check off (but don't need to provide just yet) that you have things like: letter of support, police certificate, photos etc. I would start gathering all the documents need from that checklist now.

For me, I had to get my TDAP shot. It's a booster shot done every 10 years and mine was up anyway. Other then that, I was good. I'm in Canada so our vaccinations are similar to the US so I had everything else that they required me to have from when I was a kid. Just make sure you provide a copy of vaccination records as the medical clinic will take copies.

Thanks. I got the package yesterday,it's pretty much what you said. I'm not sure there's a packet 4, because they are already explaining how to schedule the interview in this one.

I'm sure each embassy is slightly different. If it says you can book and interview, then go for it. :) That was just the process the Canadian offices follow. Congrats on getting to this step. You're well on your way to being with your fiance.

Fingers crossed your letter will arrive soon!

If you guys read my last post, you will be caught up.

My fiancé was given a green slip to pick up his passport and visa the day of his interview the next Sunday. When he arrived on Sunday, the embassy wasn't able to see everyone due to a thunderstrom. He was told to email the embassy.

We emailed the embassy but have received nothing yet, it has been 4 days.

This is the timeline of our ceac status:

Case Creation: March 24

Update: April 7 Ready(given an interview appointment)

Update: April 27 Ready(day of interview)

Update: May 1 Ready

Update: May 3 Ready

Case Creation Date Changed!!!!!:

May 4th

Update: May 4th Ready OPEN

Update: Administrative Processing

Can someone please tell me what's going on?? He should have had his passport in his hands last Sunday! Why is it showing AP now?? I thought if the Creation date has changed it is a good sign!
