can someone tell me what forms i have to fill out for the interview??

Masha, this is a dangerous thing to ask in the forums. The exact forms can vary by your situation and frequently change. The forms required changed between Alla's interview and Sergey's (K-2 to follow) and that was only an 8 month difference in time.

The suggestion above to "read the guides" is also not so good as VJ does not have the details for each consulate and the details for each consulate differ. Though the advice to read is good, the VJ guides are not the source in this case.

Go to the Kiev Embassy website, click on "visas" and find the lnk for the "Fiance(e) P3" Or do a search of the site for the P3. I have a file for this but it is 5 years old and I am sure it has changed. The P3 (sometimes called "packet 3") will have all the forms and the instructions specific to that consulate plus all the additional documents you must provide.

Kiev is a fairly easy consulate to deal with but they are picky about you having all the forms and documents, they are not going to let you slide on anything. If it says you need it...you need it. Make sure you have all the documents you need before you make an appointment for an interview.

FYI, for others, this is where planning ahead saves you time. We actually had all the documents needed for the interview in our hands before we filed the petition (except the I-134 which needs to be recent) This is what you can do while you wait for the petition to be approved.

VERMONT! I Reject Your Reality...and Substitute My Own!

I agree with Gary and Alla completely! The info of VJ is great, but the info on the Kiev Embassy website tells you exactly what they need and expect. They also provide valuable info regarding what your fiancé needs to supply.
