Does anyone know exactly if we need to attach all of our supporting evidence (employment letters, pay stubs, tax returns etc.) to the I-134? or do we just place it in a folder for the embassy to reference it? What did you guys plan to do with it? Should it be arranged in any particular way?

We are just planning to put the employment letter in a standard envelope, pay stubs are too big to fit in it and also the tax returns so we just organize everything in a big folder and label the bottom of each page. try having it as organized as possible so when asked to present them, she can find it easily and in a way that she doesn't loose anything

Yup sounds like a good plan. Try to make it as efficient and easy as possible. It's nice to be able to think about I-134 now haha. Thought that day would never come. It will be a busy month ahead.
