Hello ladies and gent's

At the end of July, we will be starting the I-129F process

I have a question though. I noticed this on the form instructions:

Submit a completed and signed Form G-325A (Biographic Information) for you and a completed and signed Form G-325A for your fiancé(e). Except for name and signature, you do not have to repeat on the Biographic Information form the information given on your Form I-129F.

Im probably just being slow, or im in "over-look everything" mode. Or both. But for my copy of the G-325A...do I need to sign it? As in, I need to fill it out and send it over to him, or does he fill it out and not worry about my sig? Confused! :S

Also I just want to make sure I have everything correctly listed that needs to be sent. Iv gone over the instructions a few times, but from my understanding he needs to send:

- Form I-129F

- Two G-325A form's

- Cover letter

- Money order for $455

- Two passport-type photos (one of me, one of him, both signed/names on the back)

- Copy of his birth certificate (Front and back)

- Evidence: Photo's, copies of my boarding pass stub's (iv only gone to see him, he has never come here), things we did while I was there. **Any other items/papers/Anything I should provide as evidence please let me know so I can write it down!**

Am I missing anything?

Thank you so much for looking, and im sorry if this is answered 100000 times a day...im just paranoid were going to mess something up

There has been some debate about weather or not the G-325A forms need to contain original signatures or not. However, to be safe and insure you don't get an RFE for something stupid, fill out the form, sign it, and send it to him! It will make your life easier and give you a little piece of mind. The rest looks good to me! For evidence we submitted some flight itineraries, pictures, and a couple phone bill's to show an ongoing relationship. When you flew, did you use the airport in Buffalo or did you go through Toronto or Hamilton? If you went through a Canadian airport and have passport stamps, it might be smart to include a photo copy of those as well.

Welcome to VJ! I noticed you are from Niagara Falls, that's exciting! I'm from Welland. Good luck with gathering all your paperwork. Where in the US are you moving to?

Thanks for the feedback all!

Hugglebuggles: I giggled a little when I read the "piece of mind part". Im the type that wants to take charge and get EVERYTHING done to get some piece of mind! So this is driving me crazy lol. Do we need written letters..stating that we intend to marry sent out with the evidence? And the only thing I can really show evidence of an ongoing relationship is a few couple min-long cellphone charges to/from Florida..and some texting charges. Also texts back/forth from us. Me and him play WoW (I noticed there is a WoWers stand up thread. Im in there hehe) - so we use a program to talk over the internet rather than talking over the phone. And I fly out of Buffalo..so all I really have is boarding pass stubs, and itineraries.

Thank you!!. And that's crazy close to me!! Hubby lives in Jacksonville, Florida. So that is my moving destination. It's sooooo big though...im so used to walking down the street and being near everything I need. (Being from Welland, you can relate lol) But in Jacksonville, it's such a HUGE city, with crazy over-passes everywhere...and everything seems SO far apart. Everyone drives - hardly anyone rides bikes or walks. He laughs at me because im scared to get lost one day...I try to memorize everything everytime I visit lol.

Always do things on the safe side ... sign everything ... they sent our whole application back to us because they thought one of the G-325A pages was a photo copy. I'm darn sure it wasnt but when we help up our copy and the one we sent we couldn't tell which one was copied or not.... so we redid it all in blue ink ...

Tip #2

Keep your patience in check .... the waiting is the hardest part and can wear on some people. and th wait for the K-1 for my wife and I was the hardest part we went thru so far ..the rest after was a breeze so far

Isn't that the truth!? I did tell Tim right away, before we filed, that this will cause us to have emotional times. It's very stressful, and can put your relationship to the test!! People can act and say things under stress that usually are not like them at all. So it's real important to remember that. He and I get along so well, but in the couple weeks leading up to the interview, (longest weeks of my life if you ask me!) there were a couple times that our conversations weren't exactly, "smooth". We've never had a disagreement or fight yet, but wow, sure came close to losing it then. Course, then the interview went so well, I felt bad for doubting!! (big part of the cause of things..lol)

Just to remind you, all four copies of the forms are needed. Any snail mail will help to, but really a lot of that is secondary evidence. If you don't have everything they suggest, don't worry. Best wishes for you journey.

Oh I'm the same way, don't you worry! This process literally drove me nuts for a long time! I always want to be in control of the situation, and this is one of those times where you have absolutely no control at all. The hardest part for me and many others was waiting on an interview in Montreal. You really have no idea when It will be, and its so hard to make plans when you don't know where you'll be week to week, or even month to month. Just try to keep everything into perspective! There's gold at the end of the rainbow, right?

You do need letters of intent yes. There's a sample form here on VJ, we used that and just changed the names on them and signed! Make sure you do one for each of you. Don't really worry about the lack of ongoing relationship evidence, they aren't really concerned with that at this stage, but they might want to see some at your interview in Montreal... might. They never asked me and many others.

I definitely know how you feel! I moved to Denver almost 2 weeks ago and I'm trying to get used to the scope of everything, plus all the people and the traffic! Its actually not as hard as I feared, but still an interesting transition. Small town Ontario to big city USA is a huge leap, but an exciting one. I'm scared to get lost too! So far, I only drive when I know where I'm going, or when I have a local in the car with me to help me out. I really hate driving, so Its not like I really miss it... being driven around is the life for me.

And yes, I'm 21! We're definitely youngsters. Crazy and in love!
