Case Approved! Preparing for Interview

[jedinite 0]

Just wanted to share my joy with you all. I called in today and found out that my case was completed at the NVC and they are going to be scheduling the interviews by the second week of October for November timeframe. They said I should call back during the 3rd week of October to see when my interview is scheduled for and that they will also be sending me and my wife confirmations in the mail. I just can't wait!

So, now that I know my interview is coming up. What should I bring? From reading the forums this is what I've gathered I needed for my interview. If you could provide input in what worked best for you let me know.

- *Passport to give to them

- *Pre-paid Envelope for my passport

- I sent in all my original documentation and I didn't make copies of my police background check so I hope this is ok. I have an extra copy of my birth certificate long form, I ordered a few just in case.

- Some photos, since I can't bring my computer or any electronics and most of our pictures are digital how many should I bring? We've been together for 8 years now and we take a lot of pics

- Letters and cards from my wife (not sure if I need to bring a pile of these in as well)

- Anything else fellow LJ'ers can suggest.

*Must Haves

Thanks to everyone on LJ for the support and helpfulness. I you all.

We sent in the I-864 to the NVC with our DS-230, will the embassy have those forms when I get to my interview or will I have to bring additional support information? Some thing with my Police background check and my passport sized photos, I already sent those into the NVC along with my DS-230.
