Changing interview date

[chiblosom 26]

I am contemplating changing my spouse's interview date due to benefiary not receiving documents mailed yet as I sent it through USPS. Does anyone think this is a good idea as am not sure when he will receive the documents before his interview date?

He can attend the interview, but expect a 221 and a delay until any requested documents are submitted.

What documents are missing?

Affidavit of support, son's birth cert, my citizenship cert, and marriage cert. All of which I can mail again except the marriage cert cos it's original.

What is a 221? 

He is very bent on not attending until he gets all documents ready. I am skeptical about his decision of changing the date because if he changes the date, it's going to be difficult to get another date and a visa available on that day as I hear.

"Refusal under Section 221(g) means that essential information is missing from an application or that an application has been placed on administrative hold. The consular officer who interviews you will tell you at the end of your interview if action on your case is being refused under 221(g) pending further information."

Either way, the visa will not be issued until all required documents are submitted, a satisfactory interview has been done, and all administrative processing has been completed.

What option do you think is better, change the interview date or go and expect 221)g).

Send your husband a scanned copy of all the documentations he needs to go to the US consulate with. When he prints them out, he should also make photocopies of each and everyone of them; in addition to his civil documents and he will be ready for the visa interview. As long the documents he goes to the consulate with are verifiable, he is good to go. That's what matters the most and that's what the consular officers require. You cannot reschedule an interview on the grounds of not having the documents you mailed to your husband when you have the option of sending scanned copies to him.

We got hit with 221g, requesting the original marriage certificate and joint sponsorship. I really don't understand why they're requesting a joint sponsorship with my income almost 90k annually. Can anyone pls explain this to me? I really don't know what to do.
