Question for folks who already had their interview or got their interview notice: 

 

Was interview notice mailed by (came from) National Benefits Center, Missouri or by local field office? Can you please tell who sends the notices out?

Update:

 

After waiting for more than 100 days , Interview finally got scheduled for June 26th ( San Jose, California ) 

 

 

Hi, Do we need to carry only the last 5 years federal tax return transcripts from the IRS website to interview or do we need to take state tax return transcripts too? Need some clarification. Thank you.

You can get only 4 recent transcripts on the IRS site.

Yes. There were transcripts for only 4 years in IRS site but we are taking the 5 th year tax return docs from the turbo tax to prove that we filed.

Following this because I had not been planning to take any evidence of continuing marriage as I am filing under the five year rule - also - when I made my application, it made no mention of tax transcripts. I uploaded several documents that were requested and the only outstanding documents were birth certificates of my adult children who live in Ireland and Denmark. 
I am keen to know what others took to interview and what they were asked for

Three-year marriage-based interview; it was a combo interview. We took the last three years' tax transcripts, both of our passports, green cards, driver's licenses, marriage certificate, and a mortgage statement. The officer only asked for both of our driver's licenses, my spouse's green card, and passport. He didn't ask for anything else. He did ask for her Social Security number to make sure it's correct. I guess it all depends on the officer. It's better to take as many documents as possible just to play it safe, imo.

I am planning to take VOE ( verification of employment) letter as well in lieu of W2s.  It details the start date,designation, salary etc for your current company (for me, I could just simply download from my company portal, just check for you)

 

Based on below , take couple of passport photos also, if your biometrics were reused.image.thumb.png.12ddf6422a699670dae134f9ac568c7a.png
