HI all, any advice would be great on next steps.

NOA1 received 11/20/2015

NOA2 received 1/4/2016

NVC just confirmed file sent to US Embassy Guangzhou 1/20/2016

Gave me a GUC number and an Invoice Number.

No letter received yet.

Do we

a) go ahead and fill in DS160, pay and try to schedule interview?

b) wait weeks for the letter from US Embassy?

NVC told us to enquire US Embassy Guangzhou, but I dont recall reading about this part here.

Any help would be deeply appreciated, esp from those who just went Guangzhou China.

Cheers

I would say you can fill out the DS-160 now as you really got nothing to do right now lol, but wait till you get P3 then pay the fee.

Also you can go to this link http://guangzhou.usembassy-china.org.cn/immigrant-visa-unit-question.html to email Guangzhou immigration unit, they typically answer within 2 business days.
