passport photo's for NVC

[benjamin10 0]

just wondering if i do have to send in the passport photo's for the ds 260 documents it seems kinda silly to scan and email the pics to them. i read somewhere that if you didn't submit pics to nvc then you bring them to the interview is this true

You submit the DS-260 online, but you still need to send the IV package (minus the DS-230) to NVC. So you need to send: copy of passport bio page, 2 passport pictures, original/certified copy of birth certificate, original/certified marriage certificate, and original police certificate.

*shrug* It's what they want. Then they want another 2 passport pictures at the interview. They get a LOT of pictures of the beneficiary

Yeah, it's crazy how many pictures they need. Plus we're gonna need to send more I'm sure for RoC and citizenship But once I got to NVC, I found this site and used it: http://www.epassportphoto.com/ Free pictures!

But it's worth it in the end to be with our loved ones! And we should never forget that.

You can always put the picture on a thumb drive or something and bring it to a pharmacy or somewhere else that prints pictures for just a couple of cents. Cheaper than going to a professional photographer and forking over $15 per picture.

When's your husband finished his deployment?

ya that's a good idea too i'll figure it out he comes back from the boat next month but then he's gone again in a couple months he does a couple months at sea then a couple on land i'm trying to get this done as fast as possible so we can spend what little time he will be back together
