My fiance is a Venezuelan citizen currently living and working with me in Colombia. We are applying for the K-1 visa so we can get married and live in the United States. On the I-129F form, am I able to list the US embassy in Bogota, Colombia as where he will apply for the K-1 visa, or will he have to return to Caracas Venezuela?

List the embassy where he currently resides. My fiancée is a Philippine citizen but lives and works in Singapore. The US Embassy Singapore processed the visa application and conducted the interview.
