H4 interview: Is I-797 photocopy enough?

[chawkalla]

Hi,

I'm currently working in US on H1 visa. My wife is going for H4 visa interview in 2 weeks. I can't accompany her (since I'm in US now) but I think she has all the documents needed except this one:

The original Notice of Action Form I-797 of the Principal Applicant.

She has the photocopy of I-797. But is that enough. I have original with me in US but I am kind of apprehensive mailing it for the fear of loss.

Please advise.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry if this issue has already been discussed before. I failed to find it.

Yes photocopy is enough.

photocopy of I-797 is enough.

The original Notice of Action Form I-797 of the Principal Applicant... required only if you are going for stamping

Thanks a lot!
