What actually goes wrong
This bundle is for you, not for upload
There's nowhere to submit supporting documents for a B1/B2. You carry them. Print the merged PDF in order so you can hand over exactly what's asked for without shuffling a folder at the window.
The officer may look at none of it
Most B1/B2 interviews run a few minutes on answers alone. Bring the pack anyway: it costs nothing and the one time it's requested, not having it ends the interview.
