Answer: By default, Packet 3 comprises of ds 230 part i for each applicant (primary and derivative) on your GC and ds 2001 form.
In some cases (rare) NVC may require applicants to submit other documents such as PCC.
 
Packet3 received

:eek: ...My lawyer have received packet 3.He is asking me a filled DS-230 Part-I and II for myself and for my wife along with DS-2001 from me. When i asked him whether NVC has asked about the DS-230PartII in the packet 3....He said no but usually he sends both DS-230 partI and II together (Part II unsigned) to NVC when he sends packet 3.

Is that o.k..?.Bcos i personally feel that we need to give the info what we are asked?

Am i right ...?Guide me gurus....!!!!!!

Normally, I agree. But in this case, I do not see any harm as far as you fill up part 2 with the information you intend to fill later.
 
DS-2001

Please suggest me when filling DS-2001 for appointment letter what address i have to mention .....whether my local address in India......or my current address here in United states.....
Please suggest me....

Many Thanks

There is no harm mailing ds 230 part ii along with p3 application. You can always download another ds 230 part ii from the web and carry it to the interview.

As far as address in ds 2001 is concerned enter your current address. If you are in usa, then enter usa address. If you are india then enter india address. Whatever is CURRENT ADDRESS!
 
DS-230 Part II

When filling DS-230 Part -II ....i came across a question like who is your petitioner? I think for myself i need to put my employer's name.....whereas in my wife's petition i dont know what to fill?is it my name? or My employer's name....Please suggest me based on your experiences....

Many Thanks

For your wife's and any other dependents, fill the name and
address of your employer and put the following sentence.

(petitioner for Mr.xxxxxxxxxxx spouse(or father) )

Hi Guys,
I am facing the same problem here. I am married for 4 yrs now but today my attorney told me that my wife's name is not in the approved I-140 application and it has to be added. I dont know who's fault it is but they have received only one fee bill.

They have said they are sending the fees for me and asking NVC to generate another fee bill for my wife by faxing marriage certificate.
Do i need BC and PP copies as well.????My attorney has not asked for them.
They will send her fees later once the new bill is issued.
It will delay the process a bit.
My question is hope this will not affect my Packet3 in anyway.
How does packet3 comes???? Combined or separate for each applicant.
Paying fees at different times should not jeopardize packet3,
i guess........

I think they will need the birth certificate. If it is doable, ask the attorney to delay the sending of your fees by a couple of weeks. You should get your wife's fee bill by then.
 
Is DS 2001 part of Packet 3? My lawyer just made me fill DS 230 Part I.

Thanks,

I was in the same boat 3 weeks back.what i did was i called the NVC got the fax number and faxed my marriage certificate and birth certificate along with the my NVC case ID number.Again when i called them, the NVC representative told me thay they received my information and they are going to generate 2 fee bills and insisted me not to pay the single bill because that may cause some delay and unwanted confusion.Within one week i got the new fee bill and that was paid.Now i got the P3.I am in the middle of filling it.

But other people in the thread said that there is another method like what your attorney has said.

Question about Packet 3

What exactly comprises Packet 3? Yet to receive Packet 3. But my lawyer had me fill DS-230 Part I.

But I see people mentioning DS-230 Part II, DS 2001, I864, all the documents. I don't even have my birth certificate here (just have a copy). Was thinking I would need these documents only for the final interview.

I'm confused could the CP Gurus please enlighten me.

In most of the cases the Packet 3 comprises of just DS 230
Part 1 (Biographic Data). Sometimes the DS 2001 is also
enclosed.

DS 230- Part II is the Sworn Statement which is filled and
taken to the interview (without signing) . The consular
Officer would ask you to sign in his/ her presence.

DS 2001- Instruction to the Visa Applicant. Just lists out
the required document, and part of Packet 3 . What you
do in this form is just check each of the boxed for the
required documents and confirm that you indeed have
them . (You can also confirm if you are confident of getting
them by the time of the interview)

Form I-864: This is a form of Affidavit of Support and applies
usually for 'Family based' Immigrant visas.

It is right that you need these documents only for the interview.
But some exceptions are, consulates in Canada where you
need to send all the documents with the Packet 3.

Pay relelvant fees. and mail it alogn with both your passports and original marriage certififcate. Expect the passport back in your hands in about 2 weeks or sooner!

Collecting all the supporting documents, making various copies for your personal records,etc. and making sure they are in order.
 
Question regarding PCC

For my wife (since she is India) she needs 2 PCC's.one is from the Passport office and the other is from the local police station.When i go through the USCIS website it says that the PCC should have the dates mentioned in it.For my wife we got the PCC from the passport office and it is not having any dates (when i mean dates it is From dd/mm/yyyy to dd/mm/yyyy she stayed in this place).So is that o.k?Can some body who has gone through the similar situation guide me on this?:confused:

Same thing with the PCC from the local police station also.....We have not got it....But still we dont know the format to ask....and then since we come under municipality we do not have a commissioner of police for our district....We only have a superentendent of police....So will that be o.k...Guide me gurus...

If there is any standard format in any website please give me the link for that .....your help is heavily appreciated

Thanks in advance....
