Beginning the K1 Process

 Share

5 posts in this topic

Recommended Posts

My finance and I were officially engaged our last trip together.

We are anxious to start the process for K1 application.

However we would like to confirms what forms and documents necessary at this point to commence.

Through browsingThe USCIS Page on Fiance(e) Visa it follows:

1. Form 1-129F Petition for Alien Finance(e)

2. Filing fee USD 340.00

3. G1145 - Notification of Acceptane of Application/ Petition

Are we required to submit our evidence to support ongoing relationship, letter of intent, documents etc at this stage?

When do we fill out the G-325A( Biological Information)?

When do we submit the 1- 134- Affidavit of Support?

Please provide some clarity guys. We really want to submit everything as needed to avoid any delays in the process.

Thanks.

You are correct in the proper form I-129F and G1145 and the fee is currently $340.00

You will want to send with those forms, a legible copy of the petitioners legal birth certificate to prove residency. If you were not born here or cannot access it, send copies of your entire US Passport to fill this requirement.

You will also need to send evidence of having met in person within the last 2 years, you can accomplish this with boarding passes or copying the passport pages of the person who traveled.

You also need to each send an original signed letter of intent to marry within the 90 days from entering the country.

Thanks a lot guys!

When do we submit the 1- 134- Affidavit of Support?

G-325A requires an A File Number to be inserted am I to assume this form will be sent to us or should I download it and submit it in absence of the number.?

Click on the GUIDES at the top of this page, there is info on the complete K-1 petition process.

You only need to submit the Letter of Intent (both of you) at this time. Support and evidence of an ongoing relationship are for the embassy stage.
