i know somehow i am flooding the forum with different questions. i do hope u understand that i have little knowledge on this matter and now is the only time i have to ask before my week starts to gets so busy.

heres the scenario

my fiancee and i filed i-129f last aug 6,2013. i am the benefiaciary.

we made a copy of everything we sent. and glad that we made a copy because i just foind out couple of minutes ago that we would need that copy once i have my interview at the embassy. my questions are ff:

1. our petition is i guess still in uscis , does my fiancee needs to send those copy of the docs we sent for filing to me now? or its too ealy ?

2. i know we sent proof of ongoing relationship and all that stuff, my question is, when she got back from the states,

our mode of communication everyday is tru facetime. its an app from

iphone. we find it cheaper because we dont need pay for it so long as we both have internet connection. now, how will i be able to show it during my interview that we are communicating via facetime? altough we have some imessage but its just brief, most of our imessages are like '" babe, u awake? facetime?" lol. can someone tell me how shud we show to the embassy that we are contactinh thru facetime? or will that even be ask during my interview?

3. i read somewhere that theres another notice that uscis will send us and thats called NOA2. should we make a copy of that too?

4. regarding affidavit of support: what exactly does my fiancee needs to get from her side( shes the petitioner) regarding affidavit of support? i kind of think that it would be her itR and w2- is that correct? if so, how many years of her itr that he should mail to me? shes been in the statesfor roughly 10years now. i dont think the govt would ask for 10years itr. lol. and just in case, whats w2? my fiancee is asleep as i write this down so which ever comes first to answer my question.:)

5. regading medical: i am a smoker. will that be a

problem? just asking.

6. how will i know which service center is our petition beinh process?

i do hope ucan shed light to these numerous questions i posted. thanku so much.

im still waiting for my client to show up whos late for almost half an hour now. goodness! :))

When your fiance get NOA2 tell her to keep it in a safe place you guys will need it AOS time

5. regading medical: i am a smoker. will that be a
problem? just asking.

No medical has nothing to do with smoking, Doc might jst ask you if you are smoker just say yes, nd he can ask you abt drugs too like marijuana.

perhaps if u cud shed light to some of my questions which are not listed on the link u provided:) if its not too muc to ask my friend. merry christmas in advance lol

After NOA2

What to send to your fiance(e) once the I-129F is approved (Receive NOA2):

1. A copy of the entire I-129f package (that you made when you sent the petition in) and a copy of information that you sent back due to an RFE (if you received one). 2. Send all originals of the documentary proof that you submitted for the I-129F to your fiance(e) for their interview at the embassy. 3. Send an original letter affirming your desire to marry your fiance(e) and your continued support of the K-1 Visa. Sign and date the form. This will be similar to the letter you provided with the I-129F, but dated much closer to the interview (it will have most likely been several months since you submitted your I-129F). 4. I-134 Affidavit of Support form. Ensure it is signed, with all required supporting evidence. Begin collecting the required information ahead of time, as it can often take several weeks to collect it all. 5. You will likely need at a minimum (for the above form) two to three of your most recent pay stubs and a signed letter from your employer listing you job title, start date, your salary, and the status (full-time) of your position. Begin collecting these ASAP after your NOA2 arrives. You will also probably want to include other evidence such as your banking information and other assets as required by the I-134. Specifically you will need at least 2 of the 4 options mentioned in Section II-Supporting Evidence of the I-134. See this FAQ for more tips and ueful information on the Affidavit of Support Form. 6. A copy of the NOA2 that you received in the mail. 7. Proof of your ongoing relationship. This needs to be taken to the interview! Include photos, travel documents, emails, etc from between the time you filed and present (NOA1 date-now).

Examples: Copies of land line and cell phone bills, appropriate emails and letters you have sent including the stamps on envelopes (to document the date they were sent), and other written documentary proof. Provide a reasonable amount; two to four of each type. Pick a range of dates up to and including the present. You can also include a copy of engagement ring receipt (this is something that is a big optional - do not worry if you do not have a ring yet!)

1 - You do not need a copy of the I-129F petition package for the interview (and yes I know they list it here on VJ, all I can say is Forest Gump must of posted that information), it is not listed in the embassy instructions letter, it is not asked for during the interview either - the CO has the original I-129F petition sitting there in front of him. If you want to have a digital copy on file, have him email it to you, but its not required at ANY point for the interview.

2- Even if you don't chat much keep a chat log of those "short" conversations, do a few emails. The embassy will only look at a sampling of emails and/or chat logs (if they bother to look at them at all), they like pictures of the two of you for sure.

Excerpt from embassy instructions letter:

k. EVIDENCE OF A GENUINE ENGAGEMENT. You must be prepared to prove to the consular officer that you have a genuine relationship with your petitioner and a clear intention to marry within 90 days of admission into the U.S. In the past, successful applicants have submitted photographs, letters, e-mails, phone records, bank records, and remittance records as evidence supporting their relationships and intent to marry.

3- You do not need a copy of the NOA2 for the visa application process/ interview. You will need that once you are in the USA for adjustment of status.

4- You only need the most recent tax return and W-2. One year only, there is no value in bringing multiple years of ITR the embassy will not ask for them and they will not take them even if you try to hand them to the CO.

Excerpt from embassy instructions letter:

n. EVIDENCE OF SUPPORT. You should be able to demonstrate that you will not become a public charge or be a burden on the U.S. taxpayers for financial support. A completed I-134 Affidavit of Support Form with original signature will be useful to the consular officer to evaluate your petitioner’s ability to be financially responsible for you. You should also submit your petitioner’s most recent U.S. Federal income tax return (Form 1040) and wage statements (Form W-2). Employment letters stating salaries and bank statements may be included to substantiate the I-134. Download Form I-134 at http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis.

5- No smoking is not an issue with the medical.

6- Your NOA1 will have the service center listed on it.

Here is a link to the Embassy Instructions Letter it has all that is required.

Only my opinion, but I would keep copies of everything you send or they send you. Never know when things may get lost or misplaced, especially when dealing with large agencies and the mail.

Wish you and your fiancee all the best :)
