Re: Interview upcoming
You'll need to show proof that she's making arrangements to close out her life in the UK and making arrangements to start up her life in the US. Things like valuations from an estate agent, a letter giving notice to leave her job, quotes from shipping companies... stuff like that. Also, house hunting in the US, copies of job applications, arrangements to get the kids into daycare or school (both, if applicable)... stuff like that.

Why do you think it's weird that London helps couples remain together during the process?

Re: Interview upcoming
Well. I 'passed' my interview. Easy as. It was just the waiting that was the pain, but hey ho.
The only documents they asked to see where the original ones I posted. Didn't need to show any domicile proof. I had a folder full of evidence too.
Anyway. USA here we come.

It's part of the I-864 requirement. The sponsor filling out the I-864 form needs to be domiciled in the USA. For those USC's who are living in the UK, London allows them to show "proof of intent to domicile" instead of forcing them to physically go to the USA ahead of the intending immigrant.

Re: Interview upcoming
The embassy and consular web sites are not intended to be detailed 'how to' manuals, it's not their function in life. Their job is to process visa applications and providing an overview of the local procedures makes their job easier, but providing a detailed guidebook is the job of others.
More detailed information is publicly available in the FAM, which is available online and which I gave a reference to.

Re: Interview upcoming
Hi. I'm sure this has been done to death, but I seem to be going round in circles of panic hoping I have everything set.
I have my Visa interview in a couple of weeks. I'm a UK citizen my wife is USC and we live in the UK currently.
Is this ALL I will be asked for.
Passport
Birth Certificate
Marriage License
Interview letter confirmation
3 x 50mm x 50mm Photographs
Police certificate
DS-230 Part II ready to sign
I-864 Affidavit of Support from my wife
I-864 Affidavit of Support from her Dad as a joint sponsor (USC & resident)
Her Dad's tax returns
I will also take a copy of all of the above plus some relationship evidence (photos etc)
Good to go. Right?
Thanks folks.

Ah... all good then.

Things like valuations from an estate agent, a letter giving notice to leave her job, quotes from shipping companies... stuff like that. Also, house hunting in the US, copies of job applications, arrangements to get the kids into daycare or school (both, if applicable)... stuff like that.
I'm sure others will be along shortly to fill in the gaps... it's still quite early here in the US' eastern time zone.
