How Recent Does I-134/Embassy Interview Documentation Need to Be?

Hello all,

 

Per the issue I explained in this thread, my fiancée and I had an issue where she was not allowed into her interview on Oct 17 because she never went to the pre-interview, which they never let us know about. She has just called me with great news: the embassy rescheduled her pre-interview for this Thursday (Nov 14) and then her interview will be next Thursday, Nov 21. I'm so relieved! But I want to make sure I have something right.

 

Because we didn't know when the pre-interview would be the first time around, we completed and signed all the documents for her interview (my I-134, our updated letters of intent to marry, employment verification letter, etc.) around Oct 5-7. I want to make sure my I-134 and supporting letters from my banks would still be valid now, about a month later. I can easily grab the more recent pay stubs that have been issued since, and I could probably get another letter from my main bank tomorrow if needed. However, I use an online service called Betterment for my HYSA and investing, and that letter took several days to generate when I did it the first time so I couldn't have a new one ready on such short notice.

 

The simplest thing would be to leave everything alone so the amounts on my I-134 match what's on my existing letters without scrambling to fix it in one day, and I'm sure she can explain this to the officers if needed. I don't think a month is too large a gap considering the circumstances, but I also don't want to take any chances given the issues we had last time. 

 

I appreciate any advice on this. Thank you!
