Hi. Do I need to bring original copies of these during the interview? Or a copy will do?

Depends on the embassy, in some you have to send the originals ahead of time, in others you need to bring them to the interview

What embassy. We need a little housekeeping for your profile. 

 

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline OR your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine their Embassy. The country that should be used is the country where the interview will take place.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right-hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Once you finish that then return and you will see a flag in your profile. Select it and see what wonderful information will open up for you.

 

Thanks

We already sent the original copies with the I-129F.

With the I-129F you should have sent the police reports/court records of the petitioner, the beneficiary should bring copies of those to the interview just in case. At the embassy stage police reports (and if necessary court records I guess) of the beneficiary need to be obtained. I don't know how exactly your embassy wants those, you might want to go to the regional subforum to find out.

There isn't a requirement to include PCC with the 129 application. You will need originals for USEM/interview.

 

You should go to the embassy website and review what is needed for the interview. Here is what is needed for your NBI check

 

POLICE REPORT. Applicants aged 16 years and older must have a valid Philippine police (NBI) clearance from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). For immigration purposes, an NBI clearance is valid for one year from the date of issuance.

• Please note that an NBI Clearance with an AKA is also required. Police clearances should be in the applicant’s current name, birth certificate name, maiden name, married name, and any aliases or nicknames ever used, including different spellings of all names that may have appeared on other civil documents (e.g., birth certificate, marriage certificate, etc.), even if these names or spellings have never been routinely used. Please refer to the NBI website http://www.nbi.gov.ph for additional information. You may request NBI to directly submit your NBI clearance to the US Embassy (recommended) here: https://clearance.nbi.gov.ph/
• Police Clearance from other countries: Applicants who have stayed for six (6) months or more upon reaching the age of 16 years are required to obtain a police certificate. Country-specific information on how to secure foreign police certificates is available at https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country.html.

Petitioner doesn't have PC as they are all accessed by USCIS using the FBI data base and other means. Court reports for arrests will need to be available at the interview.

We needed to submit the police records of my fiancé because that was our RFE. We only submitted court records with the packet, hence RFE. I am the beneficiary. I already have my NBI clearance.

I guess I missed the RFE part of your post.
