So, I have 3 identical photos, I have my medical tomorrow and I am sending off all my forms today (would have been earlier, but I noticed an error).

I take 1 to the medical. Got that, but the other 2... do I keep, or attach to my DS-156? Little bit confused by this.

UK based by the way, in case that helps.

Thank you for all the help.

Only mail in the DS forms and take the "attachments" with you to the interview.

Just to double check, while this thread is up.

I just send the forms:

DS-230 Part I

DS 2001

Form DS-156

Form DS-157

Form DS-156-K

Then all other evidence etc, I keep and take to the interview?

So then it's only the passport pictures confusing me. Do I attach the 2 to the DS-156, or keep them until the interview?

Correct, the photos go with you to the interview. Only mail the DS forms. Please be sure to read through the K1: NOA2 to Interview thread in the UK regional forum.

Thank you for the link to that thread.

I don't think my passport photos are correct, all of them are UK style passport photos, not US.

However, I can send my forms off and get the passport pictures taken on my way to the medical I guess.

Again, thank you for the help.

For the medical, you can use a UK-sized, but for the interview, yes, you will need US-sized photos. Good luck!

Can they be different? I assumed they had to be the same? Edit: I mean, the actual picture, not the size of the photo.

Either way, I'll take them on the way there to be sure. Thank you.

If you want to use all US-sized, that's fine, too.
