I got packet 4 today and it asks for certain documents and gives a letter code.

"F" means that the NVC did not request this form.

One of the documents listed is:

F - PETITIONER BIRTH CERTIFICATE F

Does this mean that even though the NVC did not request it, my spouse needs to bring my originaly copy or certified copy of the birth certificate to the interview? (I submitted a color copy with my I-130, last year.)

I'm confused as to what 'F' means... does it mean they didn't request this form but I need to bring it in anyway? Is a photocopy sufficient?

No, your approved petition is all that's needed as evidence of US Citizenship from that time forward. It wouldn't hurt to scan and email a copy to the beneficiary though.

No need to bring original copy of your bith certificate, scanned or photocopy will do.
