Hey VJers! This time tomorrow I will either be at the US Embassy in London either approved, still waiting in the embassy, or (God forbid) denied :lol:...

I am sitting here looking again and again, trying to think if I have forgotten something so this is what I have:

1) I-134 with letter from his employer, 2010 W2, 2010 Tax return, and last 6 months pay slips.

2) DS-230 Part 2

3) Birth certificate + Copy

4) UK Police certificate + Copy

5) Canadian Police Certificate + Copy

6) 2 US size passport photos

7) Vaccine doccument from medical stating contraindications due to pregnancy (just in case)

8) Extra flight itinerary not included in I-129F from me visiting (just in case)

9) Report of pregnancy (just in case)

10) Application Fee Receipt

11) Interview letter

12) Passport

Should this all be enough?? Is there too much?? I am going to be on edge ALL day so any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

I can see you filed for K 1 and not CR1.. Therefore you don't need form DS 230. The forms you needed for K-1 are only DS 156(2copies) and DS 156k(a copy). As for others, you're ok. May the good Lord grant you an uncommon favour in Jesus Name.. Amen. Be blessed!

This is what they email to you after you have called the embassy to pay the 350 dollar Visa Fee.

This has to be paid before the interview :)

The confusion and different replies in this thread is an example why you should ask your interview and visa application questions in a regional forum. The UK Forum is a good place to get London specific answers for this part of your process. Each consulate is different.

Some take the DS-xxx forms to the embassy, some mail them in. You pay in advance in London while others pay at the interview. London requires a DS-157 of everybody, while at other consulates it's only males of a certain age. Some consulates want a lot of proof and photos of your continuing relationship. London wants none.
