I have just received the package for the K-3 from the American Embassy in London.
My American husband is also here in England so I was hoping he could get the I-134 signed at the Embassy when I get an interview. The thing is as we applied for an extention for him to stay here while we went through the K-3 process he doesn't have his passport and it can take 4 weeks to be returned.
Can he use his birth certificate as ID?
Or a photocopy of his passport which we have?
Does the I-134 have to be notarized or can the immigration officer doing the interview sign it?
Also it says to get a police certificate. Do I have to wait for it to arrive before sending in all the forms as the check list says to have it in your possession?
I read it can take over 40 days to receive it and I also read on the America Embassy site to send the forms back ASAP otherwise your case is slowed down.
How can you rush when it can take that long to get it?
Thank you for any advice in advance.

As far as getting the I-134 notarized maybe one of the people that have done DCF in the UK could tell you who they got to sign it.
