Confused about originals to bring to interview (consular process), please help with last step

[JeneLovesMata 1]

I will appreciate people who can help us with this last step. I just have 4 simple questions, and I get mixed answers. Anybody willing to answer?

 

They are asking for "ORIGINALS" of everything we uploaded to NVC.

 

1 - How can I send the original of my naturalization certificate? Is it okay if I just download a scan of my naturalization certificate and/or passport and email it to my spouse?

2 - Am I supposed to fill and sign a new I-864 affidavit of support for the interview?

3 - Is apartment lease and car registration with my address in the USA enough for proof of domicile? 

4 - For Tax returns, Is it okay if we download and print what we already uploaded to NVC? Or do I need to email official IRS letters to my spouse abroad?

 

Thank you.

If you read carefully, you'll see "original" refers to the applicant's civil documents, not "everything".

1.  No do not send the original.  Scan and print

2. Only if things have changed and you need to update.  Otherwise, a copy of new tax return if applicable (Not really applicable until April 15 but ok if you already filed it) and an updated pay stub.

3. If you are shown as living in the USA, yes, but really not needed.
