Plz help with no last name petition

[walyad 0]

Hello all,

I hope someone can shed some light on the follwing concerns:

I met Yuni on may 6th 2010, we instantly fell in love. Spent 2 weeks together, then i came back to Washington. June 19, 2010 flew back to Indonesia and proposed! she accepted, and spent 20 days together (at her mom's house).

Now here are the issues:

1)My fiancee has only one name on her Indonesian Birth Certificate and Passport. (How do i fill out the forms?)

2) We've known each other for 4 months, but i visited twice already. (will that be a problem?)

3) She's now pregnant with my baby! (how will that affect our case?)

I'm so in love with this woman and we would appreciate any help, feedback, criticism (as long as its constructive

By the way, i'm planning on sending the paperwork this week!

Thank you so much!

Im not sure about the 1 and 2 questions but the 3 question, being pregnant doesnt really change anything about your case, the only change would be if she had the baby and has a birth certificate with your name and hers as the parents, then the baby would need to go through a process to get an american passport. But if she doesnt have the baby before you do all the K1 stuff then she comes to america and has the baby in america and it is american.

Hello~ #2 ~ From what I have read, NO, this will not be an issue for you. There is no length of time requirement for your relationship. Congrats and good luck!

I would probably include a copy of her birth certificate with your I-129F filing so that they can see that she indeed only has one name. That way they won't think you missed something and it might prevent a RFE.

Hello Everyone,

I have a similar problem to Walyad. My Fiance in Jakarta, Indonesia has her ID, Passport & Birth Certificate with her First and Middle names and not her family name. We are just starting to complete the G-325A. Should she use her Middle name as her Family name or should she list her Family name even though it's not on any document? Her father's (family name) names is on her Birth Certificate but not on her name. Please help!

I don't think it should be a problem.....however, instead of leaving the last name box blank on forms, you should write n/a or none (not sure which one is best). I also agree about sending in her birth certificate and maybe even a very short letter stating that she has no last name. Make sure you include both on the cover letter/table of contents.

I would put NONE because if you put N/A it looks like you just did not bother to get it and it can cause problems. N/A can look like Not applicable or Not available so NONE is a safer option!
