The packet 4 documents from the consular office came in the mail. It has a checklist for all the documents required to bring to the immigration visa interview. With the interview appointment less than a week away, guess it is time to get all the documents  in order. I spent the last two afternoons preparing all the documents. All the paperwork is quite well prepared and organized now.

Unlike some people in other countries who joked about “bringing everything except the kitchen sink”, KL is not a high fraud posting that is notorious for asking for excessive proofs of bone fide marriage. However, we have some of the proofs i.e.  photos, cards, phone bills, bank statements, in a big envelope. Though not too worried about the interview, one can never be too prepared when dealing with US immigration. :-)

The consular office required the originals of the civil documents i.e marriage certificate, birth certificate, police certificate and passport to be presented before the interview. but required a copy of all of the civil documents to be submitted after the interview.I have the originals and xerox copies of all the civil documents  in separate file folders and are labeled  accordingly.

All the leftover labels from the preschool that we folded up are put into good use. The Dymo label maker is very handy to create labels. We used  to label the Montessori materials in the classroom, to expose the children to written words and  later to help them to identify the materials. We also label the cubicles and stationery  at the preschool so the children can locate and identify  their belongings.
