Hi there,

This place looks really useful and i've read some of your threads about what happens on the interview day, advice on the interview itelf and so-on..

but i still have a question about what to take.

My wife is American, i'm from the UK.

The letter says - i must bring any documents that:

- were requested and weren't submitted ( as far as i know all were submitted, no further requests )

- bring medical examination results ( as far as i know the knightsbridge doctors sen the embassy these, i have no copy )

- bring two photos - OK NP

- I1864 was filled but income tax extension was NOT used in lieu of a tax return ( so no need to bring that )

- Passport

- and it also says to 'note even tho the applicant may have provided the NVC with a copy of the document you must bring the original to the interview' ..

I have provided all the documents that were required, and they have already received original copies of birth, marriage, court records, police certificate.

looking at the letter's list of items requested and the items marked 'Y' (requested document has been received) as opposed to 'O' (for original document received) the only things they dont have originals of but have copies of are: the application parts 1&2, and the financial evidence.

sooo, what do i take?

passport, 2 photos and.. ? maybe originals of bank statements?

anything else?

our lawyer told us to bing some proof of our relationship, 'our story' and photos..

Thanks in advance ! :)

Bring it all even though you sent it in before. It may be lost, misfiled, whatever. Better that you carry birth certs that are not needed than you hear them say gee they cannot find your birth certs please give me a copy. Do not count on one American office talking to another office. Heck do not county on two people talking if there desks are right beside one another and one of then has your documents and the other person needs them. I even had Karen bring copies of things already submitted just in case. Be prepared, it's a long way back home for a reschedule.

hmm that's interesting.

we decided to take photocopies of everything submitted to them (just to be safe), personal 'stories' and some photos. plus passport, photos, entrance letter..

our lawyer says they only recently changed their policy to requiring 'original' versions of stuff, and that we shouldnt need the originals of the financial information.

good to go! :)

when is your interview? their website doesn't say anything about originals for everything except for police and birth certificates. i got one letter before my interview letter in which they returned original copy of my birth certificate and police certificate that i should bring these document on the day of my interview.
