Saifullah Khan Ghori

Forum members, Another update for those going the VSC/Montreal route. I got my
packet 3 today from the Montreal consulate. Recent posts suggested an average three
week wait between I-129F approval and packet 3. For me, it took 2 weeks and 1 day.
I am not complaining. VSC went a week above average in approving our I-129F, so
timeline back to my estimate. As I have everything ready from my side, I will
expresspost DS230-part1 and completed checklist to the consulate tomorrow itself.
Regards, Saba and Saif.
