Default I can't remember who it was...

I remember one person going to the interview with both the ADIT photos and frontal ones and they asked the interviewer which ones to use and they said it was up to them so the person used the passport-like ones....and this was through london because i only tend to read sites about the London consulate experiences....i wish i could remember who it was because it was on their interview experience site i think. Or you could ask Katesuiter....I would definitely bring the ones that the IV asks for though!!!

OK,

Sorry to be picky, but I am still confused. I will get ADIT photos to take for my interview. But, the DS-156 has spaces for photos on it, and when I send it in, do I stick them on myself? In which case, is it normal full-face passport pictures?

Thanks again,

Debbie

Debbie,

I sent the Audit Pic!!!! But I only sent one copy of the DS-156 as I did not realize I had to do two copies,So they only had one pic and photo copied that with the form I sent!!!!
Then asked for the missing Pic at the Interview.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe you send in any photos with the DS 156 form. If you read (the whole) IV 15 checklist, it states to gather these documents (photos included) and have them available to BRING to the interview.

The box on the DS 156 form says not to write in that space. I think it gets confusing when right below it, it states that photo should be pasted or stapled in. Umm...are the paste instructions for the embassy workers????? Thats kind of weird. Anyway, take a look at the directions very carefully on the IV 15 check list.
