Don't foget your long-form birth certificate and the I-864. Read through the guide in the link below. Use this time to familiarize yourself with the process at NVC. Once you get to that stage things will move much more quickly so it's best to be prepared.

Excellent advice OBX - as always

OP - you can also get together your tax info for the past 3 years. Generally you'll schedule the medical once you have your interview.

Good luck.

Are you the foreign spouse? I think the best thing to do, is to train your USC spouse on how to do all of this NVC paperwork and processing.

Good Luck !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

You do not need the petitioner's birth certificate, their passport or naturalization certificate is prove of citizenship. My husband accompanied me to my interview so he had his passport with him; it was required for ID to enter the consulate.

Beneficiary needs the long form birth certificate

Good luck.

Yup that's right, beneficiary will need the long-form birth certificate (listing the parents) at the NVC stage.
