Hello Everyone,

I am so happy to be getting closer to an interview date. Now while we are waiting I am checking and re-checking to make sure we have everything ready. I have everything I sent with the original petition except my divorce papers, how I forgot those not sure but my question is, can I have them scanned and emailed or faxed to me here in the DR and use the copies or will I need to have them mailed to me? Has anyone used copies of documents for their interview and that was ok. I don't want to try and save a few dollars to only have it cost me more time because we have to go back to the embassy after the interview with the originals. Thanks in advance for any assistance you all are able to give.

Thanks...I looked over the website but I didn't see anything about bringing copies to the interview. Darn it. I will just spend the $60 to have it mailed to be on the safe side.

I would highly recommend you do that! Better to be safe than sorry...

Good luck to you!

I'm only seeing original of the Birth Certificate and the rests are copies.

Birth Certificate: An original birth certificate (legalized by the Junta Central Electoral and in the in extensa format)for each applicant. A birth certificate must be presented for each child under age 21, even if that person is not applying for a visa with you at this time. The date/place of birth and the names of the parents must be shown on the birth certificate.

CHECK WITH THE CONSULATE

Kiev, Ukraine required BOTH. They examined both and kept the copy, returned the originals after the interview. Some consulates are OK just with copies. Email the consulate or review the specific instructions they have at ther website for your type of visa.
