Definitely start getting all required docs together. The Ds230 forms, DS 156, DS 156K, DS 157, Application Info Sheet. make sure that you fiance(e) has a passport that is fairly new (It must be valid six months after entry into the US) He/she must obtain a police clearance (you can hold off on getting this, as it is only usually valid for 3 months prior to the interview) Not sure for Jamaica, but you need to get a new birth cert (for yourself and the beneficiary ) (2 years prior is but I'd get a newer one even if ...) Marriage cert from previous marriage, death cert, or divorce decree. Two Color photographs "visa size photos) (2” x 2” or 50mm square ) (beneficiary )

Evidence of financial support, that’s your Form I-134 (if you need a co-sponsor, you also need to fill out one of these forms ) And supporting docs, tax returns for 3 previous years or tax transcripts. Letter from employer stating the length of you working at the establishment and your income (under company letterhead)

Ammm also its good to give him/her a complete copy of the initial forms you submitted with the I-129F and evidence of ongoing relationship etc.

Anyone feel free to add more incite

Goodluck!

How far in advance can I get my employment verification letter as well as letter from my Life insurance company? I am concerned that if I get these now that it will be too early.

I would get the employment letter after your fiance receives the Package 3....(just my opinion) Kinda depends on if you can easily get this from your supervisor.... you know how big or small your company is and would be able to judge. I believe that (3 recent )pay stubs also take the place of the letter but of course i always say get all you can and play it safe!

The life ins I'd say try getting that now, again my opinion becus that might be a bit more time to process....

I also highly recommend doing things to help prove your relationship. For example, send cards in the mail. If you use Skype be sure to capture those calls and print them so you can prove how often you talk. I personally am including my cell phone bills and highlighting his number. Also any record of text messages, instant messages, care packages, anything at all to show that you are in constant contact with each other. I purposely send an e-mail once a week just so I can have this needed and important evidence to prove to them if they ask for it. My rule of thumb is too much is better than not enough. Make every effort to communicate and to capture and save that communication to include in the packet you will take with you to the interview when you go.

Thank you, greatly appreciated. Most of our communication takes place over the phone. I will try and incorporate snail mail and records of text messages.
