I'm not sure that's a real form number. Can you please clarify?


Well... are you pursuing an immigrant or a non-immigrant visa? Hint: if you don't become a US permanent resident the day you enter the US, it's likely a non-immigrant visa.

It's the non-immigrant that you want. The immigrant one is for IR-1/CR-1 (and others) who have their appointments set by the NVC and have to register them online. The non-immigrant one is for choosing your own appointment (as K-1s do).

With respect, the form you completed said right on it what type of visa it's for. Even the web site for the form says specifically what type of visa it's for. It shouldn't be too hard to figure out on your own.

Im a bit confused as my interview was booked via the green page where it said

I have received a letter from the consular section with instructions to register or schedule a K visa appointment.

I paid the correct fee and received a confirmation too.

Just to let you know when going on the purple page for niv

The options are

• I am a diplomat, other government official, Fulbright Scholar, or participant in another U.S. Government sponsored program.
• I have completed the U.S. Nonimmigrant Visa application (DS-160) form and I need to apply for a visa.
• I am a Company, Travel Agency or Other Organization that needs to schedule appointments for a group of people.
• I need to apply for a K (Fiancé(e)/Spouse/Child) visa
• None of the above applies to me

If you click of the apply for K visa it takes you to the green page with a few lines of info and some links, I dont think its the 2nd option because your not applying for a visa but scheduling a interview.

The London site also mentions the IV link for booking Fiance visa's appointments https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee-2/the-interview/

Correct. The K-1 is listed on the purple page because the K-1 visa is a non-immigrant visa. The link takes you to the green page because even though the K-1 is a non-immigrant visa, it is processed as though it was an immigrant visa.

Bottom line - you chose correctly. In future, I suggest that you don't doubt your own ability to make correct decisions.

Ha cheers Ian

When it takes you to the green page via the purple k1 apply for a visa it's only the hyperlinks from the embassy on how to apply for a K1 from the very start.

The IV link is the one that should be used when booking any k1 fiancé visa appointments, the Embassy have a slideshow about it too.
