Miscellaneous questions: type of translator, photos, G-325a signature, signature on Letter of Intent, engagement

[seekingknowledge 2]

Hey guys, I have a some questions and need your help.

1) What type of certification does the translator need to have? I know someone who is a certified interpreter for an administrative court, will that do?

2) My fiance (that I want to bring from mexico), email me passport type photos so I can have a passport photo shop here print them so I can attach to G-325a. However, she put some small earings on. Will that be a problem?

3) When I went to visit her in Baja Cali a couple of weeks ago, I had her sign some blank G-325a forms that I was going to fill out neatly (she of course provided the info to put on document) when I came to Los Angeles.Was this a good idea? Or should her G-325a form be without her signature?

4) I was reading some infor guide in this site that her signature needs to be in the letter of intent to marry. Can I just send my letter of intent to marry her, without her signature? She only speaks spanish. So it does not make sence that she sign my english letter unless it is translated. Or does she make her own? It is just that I wanted to send package this week, and do not want to drive to see her just to get her signature.

5) i known her for over 5 years. We are getting married when she gets her we have talked about and want to get married, and will get married. But I wanted to do a formal engagement party in Baja so I can propose to her. Does the formal engagement need to happen before I send the package to immigration?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

1-if you are fluenty in spanish you can translate any document, you attach one letter saying that you are fluency in spanish and english, and that the document attach is translated by you.

2-earings arent problems. My fiance used 2earing on his photo fos g-325a and we were approved.

3-it was a good idea. G-325a need original signature.

If you send without signature you are going to get rfe, and that mean delay.

4-the intent to marry latters are very important and need original signature.

You can type the letter in english , send to her she print it and sign and send to you by mail or fedex.

When you send the packet they dont look if the person doesnt speak english or no.

In any form at this stage you explain wich language you speak, so you dont need translate her latter to intent to english, but if tou want do it, but both letter need to be signed. Dont sent nothing without signature.

5-if send the packet to inmagration that mean that you are engaged. If your are applying is because she is your fiance.

You can send the packet and have the formal engagement later.

But if you want to wait, you can doit, and send picture of the formal engament with your packet, that is your choise.

Good luck

Hey guys, I have a some questions and need your help.

1) What type of certification does the translator need to have? I know someone who is a certified interpreter for an administrative court, will that do?

None. You can translate the documents.....you must just write on the translation the you are fluent in the language and certify that the translation is correct.

2) My fiance (that I want to bring from mexico), email me passport type photos so I can have a passport photo shop here print them so I can attach to G-325a. However, she put some small earings on. Will that be a problem?

Yes big problem. Do Not send photos that have earrings attached to them. Just send photos, save the earrings for when she comes here.

3) When I went to visit her in Baja Cali a couple of weeks ago, I had her sign some blank G-325a forms that I was going to fill out neatly (she of course provided the info to put on document) when I came to Los Angeles.Was this a good idea?

Excellent idea

Or should her G-325a form be without her signature?

Poor idea

4) I was reading some infor guide in this site that her signature needs to be in the letter of intent to marry.

Yes her letter must have an original signature.

Can I just send my letter of intent to marry her, without her signature?

You'll get an RFE. Bad idea.

She only speaks spanish. So it does not make sence that she sign my english letter unless it is translated.

Her signature is her signatue. It doesn't matter what language the letter is in. The letter will be in English with her signature below.

Or does she make her own? It is just that I wanted to send package this week, and do not want to drive to see her just to get her signature.

Use the Example Form, send that to her to sign and return.

5) i known her for over 5 years. We are getting married when she gets her we have talked about and want to get married, and will get married. But I wanted to do a formal

engagement party in Baja so I can propose to her.

Parties are great.

Does the formal engagement need to happen before I send the package to immigration?

The two Letters of Intent ot marry are all that USCIS wants.

Thanks in advance for all your help.
