Well! Since we have several people here who will be doing the next steps, can someone verify what things we need for the actual packet 3, 4, and what we need to bring to the interview?
I know it's different for every country, and I've been in contact with people for Thailand (and I think they hate me because I keep asking stupid questions).
And Sabrina said we need DS 156K, DS 156, and DS 157.
I'm pretty sure everyone also needs these things:
And I got this list specifically for packet 3 Thailand from this website:
-Instruction for “K” Visa Applicants (checklist) (PDF - 197 kb)
-I-134 Affidavit of Support (PDF - 113 kb)
-Medical Exam Documents: Medical Forms (PDF - 95 kb), Medical Instruction (PDF - 354 kb)
-Special Instructions for Thai Applicants (PDF - 49 kb) This is the police certificate
-Photograph Requirements (PDF - 1.41 mb)
And what is packet 4????
Is there anything that I'm missing? Let me know what you all think. I'm so confused.

She's the petitioner, I remember her asking about this before. I want to say that you made a courageous decision. I'm so sorry for the situation, and sorry that I can't offer any advice.

I'm so thankful that everyone here knows what it's like, because I totally understand your feeling.
Even though we just started our K-1, we have been in a LDR for about a year, and it's just draining.
When he left, I changed. I became glued to the computer so I could talk to him on skype. When I was out with friends or family, my mind wasn't really all there. People began avoiding me because I was a very negative and spacey person. I used to be fun, bubbly, and happy all the time. It depressed me that when I was waking up, he was already going to bed, because we're exactly 12 hours apart. I cried almost everyday, and I would get angry at him very easily. I also lost 15 pounds. And I only weighed 105 before.
When I went to Thailand and we got engaged, those three months I became regenerated and I felt like myself FINALLY again. And at that time, I promised myself to never be like that again when we part.
We were so emotionally connected when I had to leave and I was walking to my gate at the airport and he was smiling and waving. I cried the whole 36 hours that I was traveling back to the US. I think the other passengers thought I was mental.
But when I got back, I remembered my promise. You have to be positive. It doesn't do anything to be sad, or paranoid. I know it's extremely hard.
Think about it how painful it is to put yourself through the pain and decided to change it. You can feel happy at any time you want. I read that from Anthony Robbins. It really helped reading his book "Awaken the Giant"
You're almost there! And also to everyone who feels these emotions, just know that you're not alone, and it will be over soon! We can support eachother.

Please dont feel depressed nor discouraged. We all have went through the same thing that you have and we all know how it feels when you walk into that gate and when you leave the one you love behind. We went though it three times and every time it hurt just the same, maybe even more because the bound is bigger and stronger as time goes by. But dont loose your hope now, you have put so much into this relationship and you have only a month or so to go, so cheer up, and lift up your head because sun does shine above those clouds. Focus on the things that will help you cheer up. The documents you need to get ready, or start thinking about your wedding ....anything but dont loose hope
Things will be ok :-) you will see

^feel relieved, right?

Thank you so much for your answers.
How can I know how much I would need to make monthly or in pay stubs? Is there a website for that?
We will be fine if we have to wait... but we're the type of people were together constantly when he was in the US, on the phone all the time when he was in Thailand, and we didn't leave eachother's side when I was in Thailand. We're very clingy and dependent on eachother. I'd rather be poor but with him here. We were poor in Thailand and we were ok for 3 months budgeting on a small amount of money. Being apart hurts much more.

I'm in a similar situation - income was barely under the required amount last year because I was a student half the year and part-time employed the other half of the year. I was still pretty close but still worried - so I emailed our embassy to ask about this exactly. My income is now doubled due to working full-time - and like others have said, I was told the same thing - current income backed up by pay stubs, letter of employment, etc will suffice.
My advice - work as much as you can right now, save all your paystubs, and go for it. I'm 26, my fiancee is 21, both of us still in school, no co-sponsor. You're definitely in good company
