You just need to have met within the last two years. There is no requirement that you should have known each other for at least two years.

file now, not later

Mark is Right. But, there is alittle more to it. TRUE. 2 years is the Requirement that you met in person and have documentation: Such as pictures, plane tickets, e-mails, phone bills. But there is More:

Your K-1 Application: (129-F) Passport Copies in Full Color. Cover to Cover even the Blank pages showing USCIS where you been and where she has been. If she has never obtained a Passport get that started...

Hotel or any Kind of Reciept showing payment for Services while you were there in January. (Why did it take so long to File I just ask myself)

Photo copy pictures of you together and try and explain what you are doing that day and SMILE. Send about 12 pictures at least.

A Cover letter is also good telling the World and USCIS this is my Woman.

A "Letter of Intent" to Marry within 90 days of her Arrival to the US. Each is Individual and Signed by each of you. (Black Ink and Do not send a Copy) Send the Original. Not Required: But have yours Notorized as the Petitioner.

Documentation you are free to Marry and she is as well. (No such thing as I'm in between relationships)

Include Your last 5 Years of Employment history on the 325 and complete it. Addresses, etc. There is little room to write so add a Addemdem if you need more space. (Mark as Attchment to 325)

Passport Photos. 2x2 of each of you attached to the 325.

Hope this helps. Its only a start. I missed somethings I'm sure.

As far as having to know eachother 2 years is not true. Physical Touch in person is a requirement. Hope this helps.

Be pre-pared for them (USCIS) to investigate everything. You have ONLY One Good Shot at your First Petition so do a good Job and study VJ. (I know alot of this because I did'nt feel I could handle it and Hired an Attourney)

Good Luck

Sorry, add Birth Certificates for each of you. ONLY BEST COPY. If hers is not Translated it will have to be. Color is Preffered.

Include 2 of each of Passport pictures for each of you.

Date and SIGN all the Forms. People forget to sign and get a request for Evidence later.

; FILE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE now you two decided you want to get married and live happily ever after in the US and A.

The longer you wait, the longer it takes for you to be with your beloved one (though, don't hurry too much when putting your packet together obviously), since the waiting line is getting longer and longer .

Good luck with your journey!!!!!!!

You already met her WITHIN the 2 year requirement. You're good to go! Hope you took pictures and kept records to prove you did meet her. This will help you get started.
