I am happy to report as of 10/16/14 we got our NOA1 - now waiting on NOA2 hoping that we don't have any issues.

While we are waiting what should/can we be doing to get ready for her Interview? Are there any documents she should be preparing or should we wait until the NVC actually contacts her?

I've read through the K-1 flowchart/guides on here on the site.

When she has her Interview at the Tokyo Embassy in Japan I understand she needs to bring a sealed police report. Does she always need a police report for when she comes to the USA. She also lived with me for about 6 months (2 trips spanning 84-85days ). Does she need any type of USA police report?

Thanks for all the help!

Wait for the NOA2 but prepare a list of the documents you need to send her.

When she has her Interview at the Tokyo Embassy in Japan I understand she needs to bring a sealed police report. Does she always need a police report for when she comes to the USA. She also lived with me for about 6 months (2 trips spanning 84-85days ). Does she need any type of USA police report?

There is no such thing as a US police report. The background checks take care of that.

Thanks for all the help!
