Signature requirement for K1 Visa Documents

[dcstef 1]

Hey guys....should we include our middle names for our signatures since they request your middle name on the I 129F and G-325? I would really not want anything sent back because of that

thanks

I only signed my middle initial and nothing has been sent back.... yet.

From a purely legal standpoint, you can sign an "x" as your "John Handcock" and it's still considered a signature and it's still legally binding. I'm not sure how the USCIS feels about that... but legally it's still binding.

I did read that it's best if you fill out your application in black ink and sign in dark blue ink (as well as sign on top of a magazine so the signatures are imprinted in the papers) that way they know the signatures are legit.

I don't think signing your middle names makes a difference, but if you're not sure go ahead and sign them if you haven't sent your paperwork in already, just to be sure and for your own peace of mind. Think of how many people's signatures are completely illegible!

Hope that helps!

I never sign my middle name.

Ok...well I guess I will just include my middle name in my signature anyhow since they request it when you fill out the forms....about the black ink part....what if I just type everything in and then sign with blue ink...is that ok as well?

thanks for the info

I've heard conflicting information about this, some people are saying black ink for signatures, some say blue. I signed in blue ink, and so far my petition hasn't gotten an RFE... emphasis on "so far"... but I know people who've signed in blank ink as well and haven't had any issues either!

I would recommend whatever type of ink you choose to sign in, that you make sure you (the petitioner) signs on a magazine or the like so the imprint of the pen is visible on the paper.

As for typing in the application information, that would be ideal, since you'll know it's legible and there will be no issues reading it.

Good luck!

P.S. Don't forget to fill out your VJ Timeline once you apply.

Our K1 was approved and you cannot under any circumstances claim to read what any part of my signature says.

All you should do is keep your signature consistent

Just sign as you normally sign anything else. My husband's signature is not even his name. It is what looks like a fancy, strange version of the first letter of his name and then some kanji characters. His signature is accepted everywhere. He had no problems on any of his immigration forms, as his signature is consistent across all of them.

My signature looks like that... First initial... scribble scribble scribble... Middle Initial ... Last Initial ... scribble scribble scribble FANCY LOOP scribble.
