Just wanted to follow up and see if anyone had any questions about the process. So far the embassy has been great. We submitted our DCF and got it approved in 6 days. Then the next day we got packet 3. It doesn't say to send it anywhere, just to "bring it" to the embassy. I've seen a lot of people here "sending" it somewhere. Not sure if I'm confused. 

However, all seems to be going according to the timeline since we have to leave at the end of November. Doctor appointment also says that is not required prior to the interview, although the interview set up process says that it does, but I'm assuming that's the general appointment thing, and not a DCF. So we have a medical schedule for next week and we already requested an interview. I'm hoping the interview is within the next week or so, since we have everything we need. If so, this process was incredible and way faster than going the USCIS route (of course because we have an emergency situation to move, but still). If I can finish the visa process in a month, that would be epic. 

Yes, ask for info. That is what I did for mine. And it was great. The embassy was very easy to deal with and they answered all my questions. They know what they are doing very well. Get the offer letter as soon as possible though. And send your marriage certificate and your offer letter. That will kick start the process.

You have higher chances of DCF accepted for a spouse than a K1 expedite for a girlfriend 

Why not get married and pursue a spouse visa through the (much faster) DCF process in Frankfurt?  There is no DCF for K1 visa, but it is available for IR1/CR1 spouse visa.  Frankfurt seems to be generous in accepting DCF requests for those with exceptional circumstances, such as a job offer with imminent US relocation.
 

You need to marry first and then contact the consulate
