H4 Documents

[manishparab2014]

hello friends, my wife is planning to attend H4 Interview soon, Currently Im in US.

I have confusion regarding two documents which she needs to carry to the consulate.

1) I797B - I saw many threads which makes it more confusing if we need to carry Original I797B document to interview.

2) I129 - do we need to carry this original document for H4.

2) I129 - do we need to carry this original document for H4.
>>> I-129 is never original. The original was sent to USCIS when your petition was filed. What you and your employer have is a copy of I-129 that is filed with USCIS. So a copy is fine.
