HI everyone, we are about to submit our IV and Affidavits of support packages to the NVC

I want to know 2 things. 

 

Do we have to submit passport size photos ? i think i read somewhere that the NVC no longer asks for those, i'm not sure

 

and also do we have to include wedding pictures and pictures of us together,  like we did when we were at the USCIS stage of things?

No passport photos required for the NVC and no evidence of a bona fide relationship needed either. Although if you want to send some so that they can send it to the embassy you can do so.

Start by clicking on the word "Guides" above.  In general follow the order documents are mentioned in the I-130 instructions.  You are already an A-Student of that document, right?
