Hi all. I printed out forms ds156 and ds156k for the upcoming k1 interview but my notes say my fiance also needs forms ds157 and ds158 and ds 230. What are those and where do I go to print them off? Oh, and my town library where I print won't let me log onto visa journey. They consider it a "chat" site. Lol. The embassy is Lagos Nigeria. I downloaded packet 3 but I don't see those other forms.

Form 158 is only needed for student and exchange visitor visas, not for a K1. Only part 1 of DS230.

We recently had our interview and we did not need those other forms. Only required forms are the DS-156 and DS-156K. Remember one of them (I think the DS-156K ) must be signed during at the Consulate. Were these other forms required on your Packet 3?

No, I guess they weren't. But I've been keeping notes along the way and I had those other form numbers written down. I'm glad to know I don't need them. Another thing.... The guide here says send the originals of everything that was sent in the original petition. Would that be my original birth certicate and divorce decree? I'm the petioner. And thank you for your answers about the forms.

Yes, send all your originals to your benecifiary. I did the same thing. I sent him everything that was included in the original petition. There are certain that should be orignals and copies. Such as send the orignial of your birth certiicate, divorce decree, notarized tax transcripts, pictures, affividat of support, letter of intents, etc. It should be okay to send copies of chat text, emails, skype logs, call logs, passport stamps, etc.
