They should have all the info they need on their Interview Letter? 
 

But you can use the usual website for more info if you need it. Make sure you check the country specific guidelines & documents too. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-10-prepare-for-the-interview.html
 

And be prepared for your father (possibly both parents, but it’s particularly common with Pakistani males) to be put in to extended AP after the interview. 
 

Good luck.

It’s not very clear it only says about tax returns 

and what documents should they bring with them?

It should give a you a link, which will take you to the same website I gave you above (I assume you've been using that the whole way through?). Just follow that link and it gives you really clear instructions, don't forget to check the country specific document guidelines too though. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/ISL-Islamabad.html

Firstly you will need to upload all the documents that are expired (for Pakistan, that will be police certificate ) 
Update the new tax returns, tax transcripts, W-2/s 
You can also update the I864 form (just edit the yearly income part and new sign, same for i864A if you have joint sponsor/
upload everything new on the CEAC portal 
and take everything you uploaded to interview 

Get medical appointment  for them

Pakistani police certificates are not needed. There is no central authority.

Police Certificates

Unavailable

Comments:  Pakistan lacks a national mechanism for tracking criminal activities.  Police Character Certificates are available for a fee from Police Facilitation Centers.  Each province has a criminal record management system, but these are not centrally integrated.  Criminal histories are linked to offenders’ CNIC numbers and character certificates are issued by the office located in their parent district.  Police certificates are not required for consular processing. "

She'll have to provider her medical records which will presumably show it, but it shouldn't be an issue. 

 

They need a Covid booster within the past year.

Glad to hear that your parents got the interview date. I am just curious when you apply for them. We applied for our parents in July 2021 and still waiting for interview at Islamabad consulate. 

 

Thank you!
