An astute question.

Not sure if we need one but I filed it out and sent it to my Fiancée. I filed and signed the prepared by section.

In my case my Fiancée is not well versed in English and it would be very evident to the CO that she had assistance.

Another immigration website that I haunt said to leave it blank.

I prepared mine for my fiance because his English is not very good. No problems for us.

Cool. I'll do that.
