K-1 Advise

[nojokedunn 0]

I was going through the K-1 documents and I'm not sure how to go about my situation. I speak english and some spanish. My girlfriend speaks spanish and some english. Problem is how can she fill out the papers she needs to fill out if she can't read it in spanish?

I'll assume from your post that you are the USC and your girlfriend (fiancee?) is the non-USC. And I'll assume because this appears to be your first post that the "papers" are those associated with the I-129F, which for her would mean the G-325A.

It is easier for people here to help you if you provide a little more information (ie, who's who, what specific papers you are asking about, etc...).

That said, I can tell you what we did. My (now) husband, the non-USC, gave me all of the required information for the G-325A (4 nearly identical pages) and I filled them out online and sent them back to him for his signature. For us, this was more of a matter of my wanting to produce a neat document than it was a matter of language, but you could do the same. I believe some documents are available in other languages.

You may want to consider together how your fiancee might answer a Consular Official if/when they ask her, in her visa interview, how you two are able to communicate.

Best wishes on your journey, and welcome to VJ!

The first documents filed for K-1 are I-129F which you fill out, and G-325A one 4 part form for you and one 4 part form for your girlfriend, also a letter of intent needs to be written by your self and your girlfriend, if she writes it in spanish a translation is needed and attached to her letter.

I filled these forms out and my girlfriend signed the G-325A, and wrote a letter of intent.

Later on when your girlfriend gets packet 3, the consulate usually will include forms in the native language.

You can fill out the forum for her and she only need to sign.

Thanks for your help. I'm sure you'll hear from me more on this board. I'm a newbie as you tell.
