My passport is going to expire in 2021 Jan. Do I need to renew before my interview (I hope it will happen before May) ?

Best option is to renew your passport now. It does not matter, you mentioned your existing passport in the DS260 or already sent the passport copy. Just renew the passport and take it to the interview. There will not be any problem, because your old passport number will be mentioned in the new passport. If you not already sent the docs, send the new passport. If you have already sent the docs, just email the new passport copy after you obtain that.

Yes, after you fill the form with the above details submit and make the online payment, you will get the police clearance certificate by post to your address in about 3 weeks. Scan it and email to KCC with the other documents.

Guys, do we need to re certify any doc from ministry of foreign affairs before send to KCC?

There's no mention about such requirement in the reciprocity page for Sri Lanka: https://travel.state.gov/content/tr...-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/SriLanka.html
Besides they no longer chop a seal on our documents. So there's no visible change in the documents even if you get them certified by the FM before sending them to KCC.

Go to "Registrar General" Office at Battaramulla. From that place you can get a Certified Copy of the Birth Certificate and a English Translation. Both will cost you less than Rs. 500/-. Certified Copy of the Birth Certificate you can get within 2-3 hours, translation you can get on the next day. This is more official and more authenticated.
