Well It has been explained to me many times re THE PACKETS and i still dont understand the b****dy things, Anna has explained to me but it just wont go in. Are there 4 or 5 packets and how many phases lolololololol

Hi Kay

Once you have approval a file is created in NVC which generates a fee (what a surprise ) Then a packet is sent out to you which has to be completed better sooner than later. Once they recieve back this packet the NVC then reviews the packet and then sends it to our local consulate office (London) then we recieve more paperwork but also the interview date and a phone number to sort the medical out (London, Birmingham,Edinburgh) I have been advised to take photocopies of all the paperwork as at the interview as they will keep some of them.

Hope that is a little bit clearer

Apparently I have filled in all this paperwork for OGP post nclex and they hold it and then just send it off as required when requested. I have now been advised to do a crb type check for the US embassy.

Hi madwife2002: I've been reading your post, and I think I'm at the same point that you are.I've also filled all the forms and sent them all in one mail, at the beginning of the process. And now, my lawyer asks me to send money, something called initial consular fee. My point is, should I have to pay something else at the consulate, because as it's initial; I don't know really how much it would cost at last. Do you know anything else' Thank you
