Hey guys. Looks like my wife got scheduled for her interview for September. We got the email back on July 28th. She hasn't received the letter in the mail yet. Does anything come with the letter in the mail other than what we received in our email? Can we just use the attachment in our email to take to the embassy for the interview? Thanks for the help

Our interview e-mail was a four page document. The last page tells you if you need to bring anything to the interview. Print it out as you'll need to show it at the embassy and CONGRATULATIONS.

When I was trying to do a change of address for my husband, I called NVC and they told me they send documents now via email...so it seems you may have received everything in email that they are going to send...
