Wait! Why are you sending originals of anything? You very likely will not get them back. USCIS website advises copies....hold originals for the interview

Looks like you covered most of it.

P.S.

If it makes you feel better to send in photos of your wedding and other original documents on #12, you can do so. But you have to make sure you have extra original copies with you. The photos and most of the ones on your #12 list, they will only need it during the interview. They need the originals of Civil DOcuments only such as police certificates, birth and marriage certificates/divorce decree.

If you didn't include photocopies along with your original documents, they will make copies at NVC anyway--but imagine how much time they can save on your case if you save them from the task of making copies. It can impact how fast they process your case in some ways.

The originals they send it back to the US Embassy where your interview is going to be held. In some interviews, they do return originals you have sent to NVC. But in some, they don't.

So if you are sending in originals, be sure you have back-up original copies left with you because you are risking not having them returned back.
