Do we need originals for the interview?

Like my birth certificate etc?

Or can we do copies?

Will they give them back after the interview ?

[clairegie 265]

During the interview, bring originals and copies. Let them know you want the originals back so they just keep copies.

The link is broken.

Can anyone shed some light on which originals vs. copies to send to my Australian fiance? I read elsewhere that I should just send originals of the copies I sent with the petition. I remember sending a photocopy of my passport. Surely they don't need my original U.S. passport... Do I need anything notarized?

Forgive the possibly dumb questions. My mind has basically gone blank, and my ability to search anything extensively has taken a complete dive... I have to send his packet alot sooner than I thought, so panic is setting in...

Thanks in advance! I really mean that!

I've gone through all the pages in the packet I need to send him for his interview, and the only things I'm really not sure about are:

- Do I need to send an original or notarized copy of my birth certificate/passport? Or is a copy fine?

- Do I need to send originals of my last two paystubs? Or are copies fine?

- Originals or copies of tax transcripts?

- Original or copy of NOA2?

I think that's all.....I hope....

Copies are fine. The only original thing your fiance needs from you is the signed I-134 form.
