Passport needed or no?

I'm finishing off my natrulization interview this week at the court house so i will be receiving it this week. I've also recently been engaged and I'm trying to file a K-1 visa. I understand I have to send a lot of papers along with the I-129F, but since I don't a U.S. passport yet can I still send my petition?

Also, thanks so much for this website. I thought I would never find help online. I would suggests this site to anyone with the same situation.

No, you do not need a passport. You may submit a photocopy (front and back) of your Certificate for Naturalization.

This question leads me to believe that you either did not read or did not understand the instructions. Please review them as they are imparative to your success in this process.

I-129F Instructions

Proof of US Citizenship is what is required (Naturalization cert, US Birth Cert, or US passport).. You can use your foreign passport to show travel and meeting your fiancee in person within past 2 years.

oh okay, thanks so much. i guess i didn't read the instructions very well. i remember what it said, but then again many people wrote about sending in so many things that i'm getting all caught up. never would have thought i'd be in this situation, to love someone so far away and the only thing holding us from starting a family is immigration laws. what can you do, you know. deal with it and move on. the day will come when we can all drink some eggnog and laugh about it.
