- Start gathering everything required for affidavit 130.

- Make sure you meet 125% of the poverty line in what you make yearly. You can google 2013 poverty line, and just do the math. It's about 19,000.

- Figure out how much you have in checking and savings, bonds, life insurance and property you own.

- passport pics of both of you, more evidence (what you sent in the petition and new stuff), letter of intent to marry, letter from the bank with your account info, letter form your employer, tax returns of past two years (i was told Peru specifically asks for this. http://www.irs.gov/Individuals/Order-a-Transcript), tax w2s of past two years, birth certificate (I'm bringing both of ours just in case originals and copies), Your NOA2, your NVC letter, last 3 paystubs.

Sorry if I'm forgetting anything. A lot of these are not required, but wouldn't hurt to bring. Check out these links:

And then I stalked other VJ-ers to see what they brought just in case

What your fiance can do is make sure he understands everything he will have to do off the checklist they send him (I can get that to you) and make sure he has info of the two doctor's in Peru that are approved by the emassy for physicals (I can get that to you too!).

He can make sure his passport is good and not expiring soon, make sure he has passport photos and his birth certificate, and evidence he has of your relationship on his end.

He can't do as much until the embassy receives it but he can definitely be mentally ready to jump on the process!

I have a question.

What is the NVC letter? we haven't received it and now i'm worried. Our case is still in transit to the embassy.

Thanks for the information. I'll make sure to follow and gather those documents.

Oh sorry for worrying you! Don't worry too much about that. I got it like 3 weeks after the NVC received it, the embassy already had it and we already had gotten our interview date haha. It's a letter from the NVC stating they have your petition. So I got it WAY late. Do you have your interview date already? I'm sure you'll get it before your interview. It's not like the USCIS in how they send you your NOA1 and NOA2 a week after they tell you via email. Also, double check, but I don't think it's absolutely necessary to have this letter. The main thing is the NOA2
