I'm confused. I received the package 3 from Barbados consulate and all the documents I gathered in advance ( DS-156, DS 156K, DS 230 ) were not stated. They asked me to sign saying I have gathered all documents and would like to schedule an interview at the earliest time. Should I still send the documents or keep them for the interview and just mail the single page document????

Really need advice

DS-156, DS-156K, DS-230 are now obsolete, you only need DS-160 which is an online form, you do not need to send the print out of the application for this, you bring the confirmation page and payment receipt to your interview.

05-18-2022: Filed N-400 online. Received online NOA and Biometrics re-use.

06-03-2022: Interview scheduled (online notice).

06-10-2022: Interview letter received via USPS.

OP

As per my first reply, you need DS-160!!!!!!!!! NOT DS-260

Your case number is the one from NVC, it should have been supplied by the consulate upon receiving your packet.

If you cannot find your case number, please call NVC to get it.

No. when you go onto the site to pay they ask you for your case number and invoice number to log in. Ithought it was my receipt number for my case file but it did not enter. They said it's the number to the top of the document they sent us, when checked there was no number. So we have to call to get it.

Which website are you using? Are you logging into CEAC? or ustraveldocs??

You must fill out DS160 before paying for your visa.
