Documents for Interview

[AJeane 7]

For the interview, is it necessary to bring any original documents, or can they be copies? For example, the NOA2, divorce certificate, birth certificate, tax transcripts, etc..

You need to bring the original documents with you to the interview.  If the documents aren't original, they need to be certified copies.

Yes. Whatever u submitted with the initial package, bring the original

So then the petitioner would need to bring or mail the necessary documents to the beneficiary instead of just scanning them?

Your options are to send the original documents (not recommended) to your fiancée, bring them with you yourself to the interview, or send certified copies of the documents.

I was asked for the divorce certificate and I didn't have it so they rejected me and gave me a form 221(g) telling me to mail in the divorce certificate.

 

So my partner obtained a new certified copy, sent it to me in the UK, I sent it to the embassy, but the day before it was delivered my visa was in the mail.

 

They returned the certificate to me with a note that says "visa had already been sent out" so in my opinion they must have reviewed my case and discovered that we had submitted the divorce certificate in our original packet.

 

I would advise you bring it though.
