1. Convert everything into dollars. You should use the same numbers as on the tax returns, if you are referring to earnings.

2/3. Yes, mortgage papers are good. For an up to date valuation, an estate agent's quote is fine - no need to fork out £s to a surveyor.

4. Don't know for sure, but given they accept an estate agent's valuation for the house, your own estimate of everything else sounds in line.

5. No

6. Tax returns don't need to be notarised - a notary verifies your signature, but your tax returns are old documents which are already signed - but the affidavit has to be notarised.

There is a really good FAQ page on the London consulate website. The I-864 seems to account for the bulk of the questions.

If both you and your wife attend the interview only the sponsor's returns have to be
notarised beforehand in my opinion assuming the sponsor is not in attendance. I (USC)
attended the interview with my wife in London and did not have any documents
notarised (we did not use a co-sponsor). The person who interviews you will sign your
wife's I-864.
