Confusing email from state.gov (K1 visa)

[AnnoyedAtTSC 2]

Hi all,
i'm hoping i don't have anything to do but i thought i'd check as i just received a slightly confusing email.

Basically i'm at the stage where i'm waiting for my interview date (so awaiting packet 4, i think) and i just got an email this morning from DO-NOT-REPLY@state.gov reading as follows (some info redacted):

The file attached is basically the confirmation page from when i submitted the DS-160 form. The text of this document says....

Note: Electronically submitting your DS-160 online application is the FIRST STEP in the visa application process. The next step is to review the internet page of the embassy or consulate where you plan to apply for your visa. Most visa applicants will need to schedule a visa interview, though some applicants may qualify for visa renewal. The embassy or consulate information may include specific local instructions about scheduling interviews, submitting your visa application, and other frequently asked questions. YOU MUST BRING the confirmation page and the following document(s) with you at all steps during the application process: Passport; Evidence of approved I-129F You may also provide any additional documents you feel will support your case.

Instructions

YOU MUST SUBMIT the confirmation page with a clear and legible barcode at the time of your interview.

YOU DO NOT need to submit the application at the time of the interview. Please note that you will be required to provide proof that you have paid the visa application fee and any other fees associated with your application. There may be other fees associated with the visa application process. Please check your country's Reciprocity Schedule for any other fees you may owe.

The photograph that you provide with your application may be used for employment verification or other U.S. law purposes.

So i'm a little confused as to what i need to do now, my guess is nothing and just wait for the interview letter? I have all the documents ready to go.

This part of the email is what worries me though:
"You must follow the instructions on the confirmation page in order for the U.S. Department of State to continue processing your visa application."

That to me suggests i need to do something for things to continue.

Anyone reassure me please?

Thanks

Don't pay much attention on it. It is just the confirmation do ds160 form that you can print it out again if you lose. I got the same email a week after my interview))) lol they are very ,,fast,, as usual))

Ok thanks.

So i can't take it as a hint that i might get an interview date soon then? Darn.

Hopefully i can get this process done and dusted in under a year!

Just FYI, even though they say to bring the confirmation page, they were very emphatic with my fiancé that they neither wanted it or even remotely wanted to see it. Still bring it, just in case.

Seeing as i have a thread already.....

How long are people generally waiting for their interview letter in the UK? The timelines are a little confusing. Some seem to claim that packet 4 comes a matter of days after packet 3. Unless i'm confused about what each packet is of course.

Mine looks like:
14th July - Embassy received

17th July - Received instructions from Embassy (packet 3?). Filled in DS-160 and "readiness" form online

24th July - Had medical

Already been more than 2 weeks since i completed packet 3.

Am i just confused?
