Opps I should of mention that =/ Should I just bring the envelope just in case?

You will definitely need the envelope wether you are doing K1 or CR-1/IR-1. They will use it to send back to you your passport with visa and the envelope (your file) that needs to be handed in upon arrival in the US. Read the link.... this gives you specific information/instructions for interviews at Sydney.
