My visa left the NVC today and is 'in transit' so was thinking about calling doctors tomorrow and booking a medical for next week. Do you think this is a good idea? I'm guessing by the middle of next week the embassy will have my application in hand and may of sent out the 'packet 3' by then anyway. What do u think?

As long as you have your LND number from NVC and your police report you should be able to book your medical :) Also they usually schedule a date and time for you when you call.

Your visa isnt in transit, your papers are in transit.

Nvc doesnt issue visa, consulate issue visas.

In transit mean tgat nvc sent your petition to your consulate at your country.

Yes that's what we did and there's no point in waiting for packet 3 letter. Do the ds-160 and also applicant readiness form (assuming you have the documents you need) when you get your medical appointment.

I did my medical 2 weeks before I even receive my P3. No issue whatsoever but remember that your K1 visa expiration date will be tie to your medical.
