1. A copy of the entire I-129f package (that you made when you sent the petition in) and a copy of information that you sent back due to an RFE (if you received one). 2. Send all originals of the documentary proof that you submitted for the I-129F to your fiance(e) for their interview at the embassy.

(LONDON EMBASSY)

My fiancé didn't make any copies of the I-129f package and I've read people's comments saying the Embassy already has that stuff so you don't need to show them again. And all the original proof he sent off wasn't sent back to him so how do you even get hold of that?
I've read loads of interview reviews on here and none of them say that they had to show their I-129f package..

So do I really need this?

Having a duplicate copy of the 129-f packet is adviced but it's not required by the embassy. Some people just advice it as a reference,it will help you to ease and be more prepared for the interview. What you sent to USCIS will be sent to the embassy. Just please don't forget to have the originals with you incase they are needed. And update everything you need to update like proof of relationship, letter of intent to marry and etc you may read some guidelines here on VJ to help you sort out.

You know, you should stop fretting and go and enjoy some of your Sunday. :) Tomorrow is going to be fine - you're probably one of the most well-prepared people they'll see all week.

That's a good idea. Plus, you'll have a hard enough time sleeping tonight - a bit of fresh air will help for sure!

So do I really need this?

All you need is what is on the London list and your visa payment receipt email. You need zero from the I129F package.
