If you are referring to original civil documents required at the interview, they want birth cert, marriage cert, divorce cert, etc.

O I think this is a general email they send out, there's no way they reviewed your documents only after 24 hours.

I think someone else posted about this in the NVC September filers thread.

 

You can also call them to confirm.

That's correct.

It also it depends on the situation, if you're a USC spouse then it won't be needed
