It does not say originals. I read that embassy needs copy only of sponsor documents.

Here is another reference which seems to indicate they want original civil documents at the interview.  I remember that my attorney recommended originals

Our experience was that the consulate needed to see the originals of anything submitted as either s copy , or uploaded electronically.. which for us was all NVC submitted documents as we uploaded ours to CEAC.  Only time I imagine it isn’t needed is if your NVC documents are still using postal service and submitted originals then .. not even sure if that happens.

copies are ok as scanned by CEAC at NVC stage

now they want to see originals / to make sure there is a raised seal and signature from clerk of the court with filing dates

if you take copies ,  you will get a 221g  paper to bring or send the originals

many recent posts saying embassy wanted originals

Take up your pedantic argument with the interviewing embassy/consulate and be sure to post back with the outcome.

 

Good luck on your immigration journey.

Guys thank you. I know embassy wanted original of civil documents but i am asking if they want original of financial document of sponsor such as affidavit of support and evidence of domicile. I have seen nvc website  they accept copy of them.
