Things to do - stolen from visajourney.com

Things to send to Dan:

1. A copy of the entire I-129f package (that you made when you sent the petition in) and a copy of information that you sent back due to an RFE (if you received one).
2. Send all originals of the documentary proof that you submitted for the I-129F to your fiance(e) for their interview at the embassy.
3. Send an original letter affirming your desire to marry your fiance(e) and your continued support of the K-1 Visa. Sign and date the form. This will be similar to the letter you provided with the I-129F, but dated much closer to the interview (it will have most likely been several months since you submitted your I-129F).
4. I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is notarized (by a US Notary Public), with all required supporting evidence. Begin collecting the required information ahead of time, as it can often take several weeks to collect it all.
5. You will likely need at a minimum (for the above form) two to three of your most recent pay stubs and a signed letter from your employer listing you job title, start date, your salary, and the status (full-time) of your position. Begin collecting these ASAP after your NOA2 arrives. You will also probably want to include other evidence such as your banking information and other assets as required by the I-134. Specifically you will need at least 2 of the 4 options mentioned in Section II-Supporting Evidence of the I-134. See this FAQ for more tips and ueful information on the Affidavit of Support Form.
6. A copy of the NOA2 that you received in the mail.
7. Proof of your ongoing relationship. This needs to be taken to the interview! Include photos, travel documents, emails, etc from between the time you filed and present (NOA1 date-now).
8. Examples: Copies of phone bills, cell phone bills, emails (you can edit personal info with a marker), letters (edit personal info also), stamps on the letters (to document the date they were sent), and other written documentary proof. Provide a reasonable amount; two to four of each type. Pick a range of dates up to and including the present. You can also include a copy of engagement ring receipt (this is something that is a big optional - do not worry if you do not have a ring yet!)

• Form DS 156k (the checklist says to return this one as well – however it needs to be signed in front of a consular officer)
• Your Passport (must have at least 6 months validity beyond the issuance date of the visa) (Pls note: if yours is to expire soon – apply for a new one well ahead. Currently it takes 4 – 6 weeks to obtain a new one. Cost: €26, you’ll need 1 passport picture German style)
• Your birth certificate or a certified copy (maybe also get extra certified copies?)
• Police Certificate (each applicant aged 16 yrs or over is required to submit a police certificate from the police authorities of each locality of the country of the applicant’s nationality or current residence where the applicant has resided for at least twelve months since attaining the age of sixteen) (Pls note: it currently takes 1 - 2 weeks to get this for Germany; it costs € 13)
• Photographs (as described in packet 3)
• Evidence of Support (as per Form OF 167 or I 134)
• Evidence of Relationship (e.g. letters, photographs or other evidence of your engagement)
• € 4,25 in stamps (envelope to be self-addressed will be provided) - you'll want to double check the required postage
• You also need a passport photo for your medical exam
• And you need your vaccination record from your doctor in Guernsey (probably should get a copy of all your records)

Anyway, that's it, I think. Hopefully this will all go quickly. This timeline is very similar to ours.
Just to give you an idea of how the next few weeks might go. We should start moving very quickly on these things! So exciting!
