As jazzyjois said, your packet 4 has instructions and tells you what is needed.

I only have one thing to add to jazzy's petitioner list. I also made sure to bring my passport with me to the interview. I read reviews where petitioner's were asked for their passports to see the number of visits they made. I'm not sure how often it happens because I've also read reviews where petitioner's never mentioned being asked for their passports. But I do remember reading one review where the petitioner was asked for his passport and he didn't bring it with him to the interview. He said the CO wasn't pleased and so he highly encouraged petitioner's to also bring their passports. The CO asked if I had my passport and I had to hand it over as evidence. That was the only evidence I was asked to present during our interview.

My interview is coming up in a few weeks and I keep seeing different info everywhere of what i need to take to the interview... can someone pleasee shareee their expertise lol I dont want to mix things up with the K visa when im doing the IR-1 any who I would like to know exactly what to take to this interview :yes: THANKS!!!

I would like to add a couple things:

1) Faith

2) Confindence - Try to keep ur cool and act as you normally would with your husband

3) All evidence you can think of that you havent submitted already (example: phone records, money transfer receipts, photos of before and after marriage, itinerary receipts, Income Tax transcripts, etc)

They might not ask for anything I just mentioned but just in case they start to give you hell, you at least have a lot to fight against. I dont want to scare you but since DR is a very high fraud country they tend to act tough sometimes. And just in case they refuse to look at your evidence DEMAND to speak to the GENERAL CONSUL and do not leave until you do.

You will do fine :thumbs: :thumbs:....just remember to keep cool and have faith :yes: :yes: .....the truth will always prevail :innocent:

God bless
