Once the status shows ready. Pls go ahead and fill the DS 160, pay the visa fees and schedule appointment. Now a days the Embassy In Mumbai is not sending any letter to many applicants. Quite limited in sending. Either you might receive in a week or so or might not. Don't wait. Download the k1 visa package 4 by visiting the U.S Embassy site Mumbai and proceed. Your welcome letter from NVC is the main. If there is no invoice id generated on the welcome letter. Pls email NVC for an invoice. You need invoice id and case number to fill DS 160. The case number is already present on the K1-FTP welcome letter from NVC. Hope this helps. Thnx

I wanted to ask if the interview appointments are done through https://www.usvisascheduling.com/en-US/ or some other site. Can anyone help?

After my case became 'Ready' with the Mumbai Consulate, I submitted my DS-160, created the profile at https://www.usvisascheduling.com/en-US/, paid the fees for K1 and now trying to figure out where to start scheduling the biometrics and interview appointments.

Right now on https://www.usvisascheduling.com/en-US/, I don't see any link to "schedule appointment" anywhere.

This was just my mistake.

 

Once I click on 'Continue Application' as shown in above screenshot, then it opened a new page for "Payment Details". It had a button titled "Continue to Confirm Receipt" which I clicked.

This resulted in a new page for "Confirm Receipt" with a "Submit" button. Once I clicked there, then I was shown the page to select the date for the VAC appointment.

 

I am so relieved that there was no issue with payment. I just got lost in the website and didn't know how to proceed.

My case is in Ready state as per the NVC case status. I have successfully submitted the DS160 application and payed all the fees necessary for the application. On the Applicant Schedule OFC Appointment page however, I keep getting "No slots available" for all OFCs. I don't even have the option to select a date. Has anyone faced this before and How should you suggest I proceed from here?

Hello, we all are in the same boat, my case is also ready 20 ago and awaiting for visa slots in Mumbai consulate. It's frustrating to monitor. If you know any information about slots please let us know and I do the same.

 

Thanks

Hi, my case status is ready 1 month ago, all process done as you mentioned and looking for appointment slot but no luck.

We should pray for all of us to get the slots.

 

If anyone get any information we should post here which will help everyone.

They should release the K1 slots for fall. It's high time. Beneficiaries who are on Twitter should tweet on The Embassy site in Mumbai.

I'm sorry. I'm a little confused. Our application recently turned to "Ready" status. I thought we needed to wait for a welcome letter/email from the US embassey in mumbai before getting started. Is that not the case? If not, what are the next steps? 

The welcome letter seems to be just procedural in nature. There's nothing in that letter that you don't already know.

 

As to what to do next after your status is in 'Ready', ASAP file for your DS-160 and pay fees. Then schedule appointments (biometric and interview). Then schedule the health check appointment at least a week prior to your visa interview. You also need PCC and for India, seems to take a month. Check out https://traveldocs.com/
