    Hey, this thread seems pretty much dead, but we are waiting for the email from the Lusaka consulate. It showed READY on the CEAC site 30 days ago. Through emails with the embassy, they have confirmed that the case was received, and that they will email her and let her know dates to drop off paperwork and have indicated that she will submit the DS-160 when she drops off her other paperwork. I have not found much about Zambia on here, but this process doesn't seem to match what I've read about most of what other locations. Any ideas if we should continue waiting to submit the DS-160 online?

    Oh no! I looks like you've followed the process https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/national-visa-center/immigrant-visas-processing-general-faqs.html#ivp13 and that the Nairobi embassy is hesitant to accept. Would it be possible to maybe try to get an appointment in a nearby visa free embassy like Kampala, Dar es Salaam, Lusaka, Harare, etc. or even try Johannesburg (I know flights from most of southern Africa to J'Burg are usually pretty affordable, but it looks like a Ugandan citizen requires an eVisa)?

    Sounds like maybe it's time for another public inquiry. Also I have had quicker responses with the embassy who has confirmed that it was received there and she will receive an email with further instructions, but she still doesn't have an email. So we're still just waiting to submit the DS-160 and working on getting all of the documents lined up.

    Hey, from what I understand, it is different with each embassy. Forms are generally sent in batches once an embassy tells the NVC they are ready for more petitions. Have you done an NVC public inquiry or emailed the embassy yet? Those would be my next steps. And just wait and see. 😒 Mine shows it was received at the embassy but after an email exchange, it seems we are just in a wait and see pattern too until she receives her email with further instructions.

    Thanks. Yeah, so far no packet, no email. CEAC shows it was received in Lusaka on March 28. I emailed the consulate this week to ask if it was okay to submit the DS-160 without having received the letter and was simply told that they will reach out to her to let her know the drop-off date (for documents) and interview date. So I guess we just hang out with the fully prepared DS-160 and she doesn't submit it yet...
