Hello how are you my name is Antonio and I am just beginning this process. My fiancée is in Ethiopia and we just finishing filling out the forms . I have 3 questions to ask if you don't mind. My fiancée sent me the 325 A form and the Intent to marry form but I heard someone say that her signature cannot be photo copied she signed it with a pen but made a copy and emailed it back to me will that be ok? Also how long does the initial process take to find out if your application is excepted? Thanks for taking the time to read this. Take care and congrats.

Hello Antonio,

You have to have an original signature, copies of signatures are not acceptable for the documents you mentioned.

If you mean accepted as in received by USCIS, you will know that as soon as the package is delivered if you mailed the package with a tracking number.

If you mean accepted as in reviewed by USCIS for completeness, that takes a few days to a few weeks after which you will get your NOA1.

Hope this helps and the best of luck in your journey.

Regards.

Antonio,

That's how I did mine. Had my Faincee sign and scan the signed intent to marry letter back to me. Our I-129F was approved. It was not an issue.

The times it takes from filing to getting an pproval varies.

Some folks waited over three months, some 6 months. Mine was approved a little over 70 days by the USCIS and then transferred to the NVC.

Good luck.

This is what I posted on the consulate review. I hope it helps.

Unfortunately this is a secondhand review however, I will try to be as accurate as possible.

My fiancé went to the interview and said the questions were quite few. He was interviewed by an African-American lady. The questions were brief:

What is the name of your fiancée? RCTN

How did you guys meet? Met through her friend whose daughter was my niece's best friend...it's complicated (and it is...LOL)

When did you meet her? We met in London

Oh, you lived in London? Yes went there for my higher education

Has she met your family? Yes and he showed pics we took when I visited him and his family in Aug.

Ok, you're approved. Collect your passport in 5 working days. Yay!

In our original I-129 application, we included practically "everything in the kitchen sink" to ensure there is no iota of doubt about the legitimacy of our relationship.

So flight plans in tow and the next phase of our lives ahead!

Thanks ya'll!

DS-160 is the only online form needed.

The appointment letter confirmation (must contain the bar code) is only what you need to be allowed into the embassy. You will not receive any further communication from the Embassy.
