Anyone have a saved pdf copy of form DS2053 that they can email to me? This is one of the forms for the medical. The link on the K3 section of the Embassy page is broken! If so, my email is ultimoxo@yahoo.com

It makes me wonder if they are updating this form.

Thanks all,
Perfectly helpful information. We are a few hours from Chiang Mai and we may be needing to go there early next week. That is the reason I would just like to get the medical taken care of. I don't think I will have packet 3 by then. I feel emboldened by all the great advice so I think I am just going to download all the forms and get it done. If anything is not in line with packet 3, then I will have time to schedule another trip to Chiang Mai, but the information given sounds very sound and complete. I'll take a gamble so I may not have to travel twice and update all on how it goes.

Don't forget to bring her ID card (they will ask to see)
I also can't believe she has to go to Bangkok to personally hand in the paperwork for the police certificate. That is much further from us and is going to be an expensive day trip.

Yes, she has to come by herself unless she is staying overseas
Note: she can ask to mail her police certificate when it is complete

Also, congratulations to Matt on the successful interview. How did it go???

What mailing system does the embassy use to sent the packets? Is it through DHL or the regular USPS?


For Thais " REGULAR" ( normally takes 7 days or maybe more)

Based on the at least 4-8 week projection from sending packet 3 checklist to the embassy and interview date, is it OK to return the packet 3 checklist and get the medical afterwards? There should be plenty of time to take care of it. I do realize that the whole point is to make sure you have all the required stuff before an interview is scheduled, but I just want to get the interview scheduled ASAP. If by some miracle of Buddha they were to schedule the interview in two weeks, My fiance could get the med done tommorrow so it wouldnt be a problem. We would definitely be ready. I can promise that. It is just real inconvenient work-wise for us to travel to Bangkok for the med and police cert in the next 3 weeks. She should be getting packet 3 in the next few weeks also. So I want to send the packet 3 checklist and then travel to Bangkok to get the med and police cert in about 4 weeks. I just want to get the interview scheduled ASAP so we can start widdling down that 2 month wait. Would the dates of med, police cert, interview granted be a problem? Does the embassy require notice from the doctor of completion of the medical before scheduling the interview?


as your time line stated that you got approval on Nov 2. you will be getting case number from NVC soon in next 1-2 weeks ( i m not sure maybe more my case took 6 weeks).
1. the police certificate expires in 3 months. also it will take at least 7 working days in order to get form the royal Thai police.
2. medical expires in 1 year. you can get the medical in 3-4 hours after you finish or you can pick up later.

The Embassy doesn't ask to send medical with packet 3, but when you check in boxes you have to show that you are ready for medical, then you will have plenty time to go check up.

all required documents shall be submitted on the interview date. in case you are lucky to get interview early and you are not ready for police certificate, medical, you can also go for the interview, then you submit some documents later (it happens) after that you will get visa.

Are all the boxes on the checklist needs to be check off before sending it back to the embassy requesting for the interview? My fiance will have to wait about 3 week to recieve the medical forms from me after I recieve them from the embassy. Should I wait till she get her med. done before sending the checklist back?



after sending packet 3 you will have to wait for the interview date for about 4-8 weeks.
some of my friends have got interview date in January' 2006 after they sent packet 3 back on October 23-27. in my case I have just sent packet 3 back to the embassy this week, so I expect to get interview date in Jan as well.

you will have to check all the boxes that K1 visa required. for the medical exam, you will have to check also. even if you will get after 3 weeks by the time when the interview take place that will be ready.

Below are included in packet 3 I have sent to consulate
1. Checklist
2. DS230 part I
3. Photo (2)
4. copy passport
5. NVC letter (addition)

Good luck

Waen
Ps. you should send Packet 3 as soon as possible, so that you will know the interview date by November (Ihope mine too ;)

Hello all! I arrive Thailand next week and am getting married on October 7. Will be in Thailand until November 5th. I am planning on filing for the K3 visa while in Bangkok. My only issue is filing the 129F requires having the NOA1 from the I-130. As I will file for the I-130 on Oct 8 or 9, the NOA-1 should arrive sometime the following week. However, I will not return home (USA) until early november. Can a copy of the NOA-1 be obtained electronically so that I can file the 129F while still in Thailand??


pls. see belows

Hi all,

I have joined VJ for a few months, but this is the first time I post in this forum.
the reason is I want to introduce myself and my fiance, Robert, here. we are now all about waiting for NoA2. that is really hard for both of us, but we have to be patient.

I got email from marydon, Mike, who told us that there are lots of useful info and I can meet new friends here too. I may have to spend lots of time reading all posts :P but I will

my English is not good enough to write more in detail, but I love to practice.

Nice to know you all and with all the best! ;) (F) (F)

Waen, (Littleone is named by Robert)
