I-129F question: describeing the circumstances under which we met

[lologeebee 0]

Hi Everybody!

I have just about everything ready to send in for step one of petitioning for our k1 visa! The visajourney check off list suggests attaching a whole separate page for question 18 of the I-129F (describing the circumstances under which we met.) I can fit the basic details short and sweet into the form itself...so should I really expand the story into something longer?

Here is what I managed to fit onto the I-129F application:

We met September 10, 2011 in Marrakech, Morocco. I was living in Morocco, receiving my TESOL and teaching English. We met in his shop in the marketplace, and we got along so well I went back every day. I was looking for a place to live at the time, and Mohamed offered me a room in his sister's house. We lived together until the end of November, when I had to return to the USA.

Is that enough, or should I elaborate?

Thank you so much!!!

Peace, love, and light!

The reason why VJ suggests adding another sheet for question 18 is that you must explain the circumstances under which you have met your fiance within the past 2 years.

For instance, I used the space to list every date and location where my fiance and I have met in the past two years before the interview and proceeded to attach the evidence of meeting during those times in the following pages, each page with it's own explanation of where/when we had met and a list of the evidence I included.

They do not need your relationship history. Say where you met, when you've visited in the past two years, and that's it. The size of the box indicates the length of answer they're expecting.

My answer was literally "We met on the internet in this year. We met in person in Month of Year. There have been x number of visits since."

Welcome to the forum.

Evylin sums it up pretty well!

Good luck on your visa journey.
