Curious if I need to send a certified copy of my divorce certificate to my fiance in England, we are hoping for our NOA2 within the next month and with Christmas coming up, I'm getting ready to be sending gifts and documents lol Wondering if he will need my divorce decree from a previous marriage at the consulate?

No. The only thing you need to send is the I-134 with one proof of income.

@amforeverConcerning the PETITIONERS divorce decree---

Keep a copy handy as you will need it again for AOS, and then again for ROC. 

You will not need your divorce decree (after the petition) until he applies for citizenship. Even though it was requested to bring originals for both spouses, my interviewer wasn't even bothered to look at any originals requested. Sometime thing go real easy for you.
