What if you don't have everything?

Our interview is Monday and I am paranoid that we are going to leave behind something vital when we go up. What happens if you get to the interview and you're missing something, like a birth certificate? Are you automatically denied right then and there or do you get an RFE?

They won't deny you. They'll just hold your approval until they've received what they've requested.

Good luck!

No...they won't give you an RFE, but the process is similar.

If you're missing a document at the interview, most likely they will still conduct and complete the interview. They won't approve you on the spot though. They will give you a 221(g) form <I think that is the official name of the document>, and it will list which documents are missing. You'll then need to collect the missing documents and bring them back to the Consulate.

Once the documents are received by the consulate, they won't bother to interview you again, normally. They'll normally just approve your visa at that point.

Peace!

Thanks! I had a nightmare last night where I forgot to bring something and they deported my husband on the spot.

We all stress so much about this, but you really should try and relax, and not get your self all worked up. Thats what I had to do. i kept having dreams of me throwing up on the imm. officer during the interview!!

Just spend your time over the weekend collecting every single document you used for the visa process, and bring it all to the interview! You will have more peace of mind knowing there is nothing left at home. That's what we did! The CO wanted to know whether I was a lawyer because he said they are the ones that bring so many folders of paperwork!
