K1 Visa - Wait time between P3 and P4...

[Veros87 2]

Hello, I am sure this has been answered before, but couldn't find anything recent on the topic.

 

After not receiving the P3 in the mail for over a month, my fiancee and I decided to follow-up by email with the MTL Embassy. Within a day or two they responded by saying the 'packet had been mailed'. Either they had the wrong address or some one screwed up the address, because after a month of waiting, we saw nothing in the mail. Further, they then sent an email to us with the P3 instructions. Since I already had researched the P3, I had all my documents ready to send back, which were forwarded to them as requested via email several days later.

 

Now here are the the issues I am stuck at: 1) we have not received any communication from the embassy that our documents have been received. 2) We don't seem to have any indication as to how long it will take to receive the P4 instructions. Several previous threads from years ago seem to indicate a turnaround that varies between less than a day, to a week, or several weeks.

 

Knowing this, does anyone have any advice or knowledge on how long it ought to take, or is taking, the MTL embassy to send out p4 instructions, after having received the P3 email from us?

 

Thank you,

many embassies are not doing P3 or P4 packets anymore

when we first applied in 2009 everything came by mail

then when we later did the CR1,  we got the NOA1 by mail but everything else was an email,, the NOA2,   the embassy instructions, etc  

 

others from Canada will chime in to say if you need to schedule the interview at this stage or wait for the big back log made by the covid with others ahead of u
