Nikkah Nama in urdu nead to be translated in English and uploaded on NVC. The other is might be the Marriage Registration certificate that is obtained from Union Council office. It is both prnted in English and Urdu and hence dont require any translation

Did anyone here have to resubmit their DS -260 Form before interview (Apparently it expires in 1 year)? Also should I update my i 864 document with latest tax information (2019 & 2020) ? Or just leave it and bring all tax forms to interview

I believe quite a few people on the NVC Process Facebook group did. First check to see when you submitted the DS-260 application form on the CEAC website. Don't pay attention to the Expiry date on the form (It will say 2022), you need to see when you submitted it. 

Then email support@ustraveldocs.com with a PDF copy of your interview letter.

 

And yes, submit 2019 tax transcript online AND bring to the interview. For 2020, you may submit if your interview is after April 15th.

Ok, when you say don't pay attention to expiry date for DS-260, I submitted it on December 2019, so does it mean it's expired already? Also does this mean I don't need to touch the i 864 form, and I should just bring my tax transcripts? 2019 transcript is already submitted on ceac

Yes, the DS-260 should be filled out again if it has been over a year since submission. This is what people on Facebook group are saying.

If you are submitting your 2019 taxes, you will also need to resubmit an updates I-864.

Ok thanks, did you have to do all this too before your interview? All these last minute things are stressing me out.. we only have 5 days before our interview. I will just hope for the best
