You didn't say in your reply but is this what you wanted? Does it work for you, your son and you  returning to do the interview? I'm thinking from what you wrote you're OK with this arrangement. Safe travels.

Well the situation here has gotten pretty dire, civil unrest etc. So yes I'm okay with leaving here for now and returning for the interview when things settle down. I'll keep you all updated when I do return for the interview. Thanks for all your help Greenbaum! 

So the Belize Embassy has received my file, they issued me an Emergency visa so I can go to the US on a repatriation flight with my US citizen son and once this virus dies down I'm supposed to return to Belize for my interview. 

I don't know if this information will be useful to any of you but my child is a US citizen and since they are repatriating all US citizens and their non-US family members from Belize , I am being given an Emergency Visa to accompany my child to the US. So if any of you have a child who is a US citizen you may want to look into this as an option. Just reach out to your local US Embassy.  Our Embassy  wasn't processing visas but since this is an Emergency situation they made an exception.

Go to ustraveldocs.gov and begin your interview scheduling. K-1's do their own scheduling.

Ah okay, thanks!

I'm confused, so NVC will ask me to submit documents for them to review before they book me an interview? I can't just go ahead and book it myself and pay since I already filled out the DS-160 and have a case number?

Phoned up NVC and got my case number 😊

• How long is it taking approximately for them to receive the application and create a  case number?

 

30 days to NVC and 1-2 weeks for case number to be assigned. Your mileage may vary.

 

• Also I read you don't submit a affidavit of support until you're in the US

 

Not true. You must submit your financials which is included but not limited to I-134 and the new DS-5040. Each embassy is different so wait till you get your P3 letter for the most up to date information for your embassy.

 

• as if it's required before the interview is even scheduled

 

The DS-160 is required to be completed before the interview and most embassies are requiring you to complete as the confirmation number is used in the interview scheduling phase. Again, your mileage may vary.

 

If you haven't already done so many of these topics are talked about in the PDF file found on the first page of this thread in the first posting. Download a copy to review.

Thank you so much for your help!

I don't have one for Belize. If you get one please share it with me. This is what I have been able to uncover.  This is for an immigrant visa asking for a DS-260 so you will need to do the DS-160 in its place. Most of the other instructions are the same for both.

Okay thanks! Will do.

Hey there do you have a P3 for Belize? @Greenbaum Much appreciated.
