Interview help!

[Booders 2]

Hi all,

 

So I'm getting pretty close to the end of my visa application journey. I had my medical on the 14th Feb, and then my final interview is booked for 25th Feb. 

 

I'm currently being processed via DCF and therefore, interacting directly with the US Embassy in London, bypassing the NVC. 

 

My questions are for anyone who has done this process before, and more specifically the below:

 

One of the supporting documents to provide at the interview is the I-864 (affidavit of support). However, when we submitted our application via our lawyers, this was completed and sent with the original I-130 application. Therefore, my question is, will the embassy have access to this document? Or should I try and get a copy to be safe?

 

Also, does anyone know how long the interview usually lasts? I'm trying to book my travel accordingly. 

 

Thanks in advance,

B.

General rule no matter which process you are doing .. You should have copies in hand of everything that has been submitted ... even if not specifically needed at the interview it is important that you have all documentation ..

Poor advice from a lawyer.   Take a copy to the interview with all of the attachments.    Take anything that would have been sent to the NVC with you to to interview.  Including a copy of the documents that established the petitioner's ability to file DCF.
