I'm a little confused so I'm hoping someone out there has been through this. As background information, I am a US Citizen and my wife and stepson are in the process of immigrating to the US via the CR1 process. After we received NOA2 and the case was forwarded to NVC, I submitted the AOS and IV packets to NVC and they were approved. My wife's interview is May 9th. Somebody recently told her that she needed to bring a signed copy of the I-864 with her to the interview. I don't see the point in having to do this since I already sent a signed I-864 with the AOS packet that I thought was being forwarded to the US Embassy in Manila. I'm worried because the instructions on the Embassy website seem to indicate that she should in fact bring a signed I-864 with her:

Was anyone who submitted the AOS packet through NVC asked for a new signed copy of the I-864 at their interview?

Bonus question: since the I-864 was submitted before 2012 taxes were due to be filed, I included returns for 2009, 2010, and 2011. Will she need a new I-864 with 2012 data filled in for the interview?

As long as your interview letter from NVC shows that as having an original on their checklist of documents, you should not need another copy(they give all the originals to the embassy when they are finished with it). My wife just had her interview Tuesday and they did not ask for another signed copy.
