Ok so I am getting prepped for my interview a week tommorow, a little nervous though looking forward to getting it done. I have to leave this friday to go down to London, and busy most of week, so really only have the next few days to make sure I have everything I need and dont leave any essentials out.

Here is a list of the things I am putting into one expanding folder..feel free to tell me if iam missing something or if its overkill or any advice that may be of use.

- Passport and copy of Fiances passport

- Birth Certificates ( Mine and my fiancee's)

- Invite to interview letter

- Police certificate ( plus photocopy)

- One copy of DS-156/ DS-156k / DS-157/ DS-230

- NOA1 and NOA2

- I-134 affidavit of support with IRS tax return transcripts ( '07, '06, '05)

W2 for 2008 , Savings account statement, Checking account statement

Letter from my fiancees work stating salary etc.

- Fiance and Fiancee letter of intent signed this month

- Originals of the photos, plane stubs, tickets etc used in the I-129F application package ( Should I include the copy that we made of the whole I-129F package that we sent in????)

- Wedding reception contract, engagement cards, photos of recent trips stuck onto card and labelled with dates etc. Engagement ring receipt, Phone bills, screen shots of email inbox.

Think thats about it, fingers crossed i havent missed anything. :-(

Thanks in advance

Jon
