Hello there,

My fiancé at the time (now wife) was also on the same boat as you and I advised her to get the ball rolling on her passport along with her daughters while the K-1/K-2 I-129F was processing. The passport application in her home country took about 2 - 3 weeks until she had it on hand. I recommend that you inform your fiancé to start the passport application process ASAP and get that taken care of to prepare.

Best of luck on your visa journey! :)

Thanks. I just ask him and he told me he had one but cant find it arghh. Hopefully he can take one out with no problem

Hello

If your fiancé has not got a passport then they will certainly need one for the rest of the process. Apply now to be safe.

Good luck.
