k3 at hong kong US consulate

[comebackkit]

hi everyone, i am a new user at this sign and after i have browsed this forum, and i found that there are not many people filing through the hong kong consulate, however, i hope some one can solve my questions here.

i am applying for k3 and now is on p3 stage, my wife is chinese resident and we married in hongkong. she has received p3 package and has returned the nessarry forms today, in her p3 package, it also has included medication exam information and list of banks in hongkong for her to pay for the fees.

so, usually at the stage of p3, what kind of fee does she need to pay? shoud she pays it to the bank that they provided or pay during the interview?

another thing that i want to say is hong kong makes this k3 process really fast, from the date(8/16/2005) that i sent i130 to receive of p3(11/15/2005) is about 3 months, and i would expect to wait another two months til interview date.

hope if anyone could help me and i am very appreciated!

For those of us going through GUZ, the medical exam payment is made to hospital (about 800 RMB). Some hospitals want the visa payment (830 RMB for K3) prior to picking up the results and others don't... so you might have to ask the hospital you have the exam... You'll also have a processing fee to pickup the visa.

thank you for your quick reply, just like to ask you another question, for nonimmigration visa(ds156), by the time that you sent the form back to US consulate in GZ, do you also pay for the US100 in advance? i think hongkong does the same. thanks again!
