I feel like I have been quite exhaustive, but please let me know if there is anything I have overlooked!

Re: K-1 Interview Checklist
Looks good, as but as Tom mentions you should also try and bring proof of tax return, either a 1040 or transcripts. If it helps here is my checklist. They checked precisely 0% of the evidence of an ongoing relationship, but it made me more confident knowing I had it.
Good luck!

Re: K-1 Interview Checklist
They didn’t ask for half of my paperwork and evidence. In fact they didn’t ask for any evidence at all, but I still took loads! Everybody is different. I had everything set out in different plastic slips inside a big binder, saved a lot of messing around.
Good Luck!

Re: K-1 Interview Checklist
I haven't seen reference to the VCU1 before but have found the form you are referring to - is this something they asked for on the day?
Does i-797 refer to the NOA2? Again, it's the first time I've seen reference to it so am a little cofused.
I'm fairly sure I haven't received a receipt from the courier themselves. My email from the consulate lists 'Courier Selection', but DX Group haven't sent me a receipt as of right now.
Thanks again.

Thanks for the response! Are you able to provide a bit more info on these?

Yes form I-1797 is the Notice of Action form
I just used the payment receipt for the courier, they didn't ask to see it.

Re: K-1 Interview Checklist
Small note which I don't think requires it's own thread:
In the interview booking portal, there is an option to 'Check DS-160 Status'. When I click through and enter my details, it returns a result of 'No Status', which I assume will stay this way until I have attended the interview? A very small matter, but obviously I want to leave no stone unturned, so thought I would check that this is the expected result prior to interview?
Thanks as always

As far as the interview booking website is concerned, if you’re interview is scheduled and you’ve completed the Readiness For Interview form, you should be all set.
https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee-2/immigrant-visas-notification-applicant-readiness-form/ this is the form here, it’s just to confirm that you have all your documents etc..
