Thanks Jeraly

So once the checklist and forms are all sent in, then to the interview you'd bring the stuff from the USC (I-134 & accompanying paperwork, evidence of ongoing relationship) and the police certificate and the passport photos?

:wacko: Just trying to make a mental checklist ahead of time cause my fiance is worried sick and I just wanna be able to ease his mind a bit.

You've got it right. And don't feel bad, everyone worries sick before the interview and checks though the paperwork 97,000 times. The good news is that everyone also always walks out of the London embassy, saying, what, that's it? :lol:

Good!! I am still p*ssed off that I didn't know to duplicate it/not send originals :angry::cry:

That's okay, I'm sure....I'm just incredibly OCD when it comes to official forms...you should see my school paperwork when it's turned in!!!

Oh I know it is ok - it's just that I won't get the originals back and I am still beating myself up about it :(

You'll probably think this is funny...when I went to get an official copy of my birth certificate, I got three copies...just in case (what the heck do I need with 3 copies?!?!?)

:lol: So did I!

I can't imagine how unsure and nervous i'd be without VJ. A couple of times i've said what we need to do to my OH, and he's been 'but what if... is it this or that?' and I always have the answer, or know where to find it. (L)(L) Yay for VJ (L)(L)

now don't be nervous, Jeraly. we're all here for you! :luv:

Haha - I know the feeling - the reason Jeremy and I made it this far is cause of VJ I swear - I like to know the ins and outs of everything but get really confused when I am overwhelmed with information and places to look so it is great to know that I can find out anything I need to know here as well as get feedback advice and support from people - it is awesome :D I have made some really great friends here :)

Hey Guys,

Your thread got me a little confused... I thought we only had to send back DS-230 PART 1, 156, and 156k with checklist back to embassy.

:unsure:

DS-157 is for male beneficiaries between the ages of 16 and 65 (I think)...
