Actually ours works differently than the others. We have to book medical first then once we get results we submit a notice of readiness so the embassy can schedule us for an interview. You better book your medical now because its all packed up. My case was ready since May 3 but can’t proceed since my medical is June!

Did they give you your case number? You can book your medical now actually. The embassy will email your petitioner about the instructions on how to proceed once they receive the petition from NVC.

Hi everyone. Just very confused about original and scanned copies we can bring for the interview. Regarding the documents that need wet signature- letter of intent to marry, i129f, i134. Do we need to bring the original documents with a wet signature or a scanned copy with signature is okay for the interview?

Congratulations!!!!

I prepared all the needed documents for interview. Waiting for the medical now, once I get the results, I send them the Notice of Readiness then they can book me for an interview. Did you get your case number yet?

Hi Rhines! This is our packet. I don't know how to attach a pdf file to share but this is what they've sent us:

Wow, the processes really are different in each embassy. Unfortunately, they want us to have the medical results on hand then submit the "Notice of Readiness" before they can schedule us an interview. They might schedule you in a week's time so if you haven't got your medical results yet, you will be much more delayed waiting for another date. I'm not quite sure but they said not to risk it. What is inside packet 4? That's great that you're the ones booking your interviews though. At least you'll have an estimate date on when you can enter the US. If you show up in the interview without the medical results, would they still interview you but submit the 221g for the medical results?

Just this morning I received the official NVC letter. Maybe that's what they meant? I'm not sure either. Yes, we got the packet but thru email, its a pdf file. It says we have to book and complete the medical and once we get the result we have to email the embassy to let them know so they can book our interview. But the month's waiting for the medical, it's kinda long wait.. We were hoping to celebrate fourth of July together but I don't think it's happening.

Hi, how is everyone doing? Just an update. Our case has been ready since May 3 but we can't do anything yet since the next step is to complete the medical. Only one hospital does the medical here and its packed up. Our is not until June 9. I'm not complaining, we've gone this far T_T

Are they waiting for the official NVC letter? Like the physical paper?

The petitioner is the US citizen so the partner is the beneficiary.

I'm afraid each embassy process is different. While waiting for your case to be sent to your embassy, fill out your ds160, complete the i134, police certs and other requirements needed for the interview. Maybe you can also book your medical since they only require the case number. But as I said, it depends on your embassy. Maybe try reading on your country portal to see how the process goes after receiving the case number?

Disregard my question. My fiancé received the email instructions from the embassy. I just thought I was the one receiving it.

Our case is Ready. However, I haven’t received any email from the embassy yet. How long does it usually take before the embassy emails you with the instructions? I have done the DS160 though I haven’t paid anything yet. And I also have booked the medical already but the earliest available appointment is still on June 9.
