Hello,

We filed an I130 and I129F. Our main focus is on the I129F. I read that I will receive a "Pack 3" from the embassy. What is the "Pack 3", what documents will be required? And does anyone know an idea how to speed up the processing time at the embassy (in our case: Copenhagen, Denmark)?

Thank you,

The K3 visa packet consists of a biographic data form DS-230-I Part I, Form DS-156 (in duplicate), Form DS-2000 and a document checklist, form IV-15K , I-134!

You have to fill out the I-134 & provide supporting evidence so you could download this form fill it out , get it notorised & mail it to your other half in readiness, there isnt anything you can do to speed the K3 process up, it actualy goes pretty fast once approved!!

Everything I respond to is from personal knowledge, research or experience and I am in no means a lawyer or do I claim to be one. Everyone should read, research and be responsible for your own journey.

To add to Euro's advice, I'd say have your police report and all other documets needed at interview ready and waiting.

In UK, at least, you can do the DS156 online which is easier than hand-filling - tho nerve wracking (I had to do mine 3 times - thank heavens for the BACK button on my browser!)..and the paperwork itself is just crazy - be prepared to get irritated (my mood for the day can you tell?)

Then theres a checklist of all the docs you need to gather and medical to book (also medical forms to complete) - but it says not to delay returning the forms while you do that as interviews can take a while.
