Passport Copy at Interview required

[maxsalvo]

During our recent interview my fiance was directed to leave the pre-interview area and obtain a copy of her passport. I don't remember reading of anyone else needing a copy of their passport before. She had to go to the 4th floor and find someone to make a copy. It wasn't that big of a deal but it might be useful if a copy was made in advance just in case.

 

She also said that a few others near her had their copies made by the person taking the forms. I'm not sure why they made my fiance leave the interview area while others had their copies made on site. Maybe they were just trying to buy time. Who knows. She passed the interview anyway. I just thought this might be useful for others to avoid a delay.

Did you submit a copy of the passport bio page before? I think it is a requirement now. We submitted a copy of the bio page and a copy of the K-3 and the I-94 to the NVC with the DS-230 for our IR-1. Mike & Yizhen
