Did you and your fiance write statements about your intent to get married? and also a supplemental story about how you met for part b question 18 of the I-129F form? Otherwise I think you're good. you don't need the affadavit of support yet though. Make sure you signed everything that has to be signed! (I almost forgot to sign my G325As :'( But I caught it, and now I am sending in my package today! Goodluck! take care!

NOA 1 is acknowledgment of receipt of package.

NOA 2 is statement of approval of petition and that case has been sent to National Visa Center.

Please see the K-1 "Step-by-Step Guide". In short though you will require the following forms:

1. Payment as required by USCIS. Use a personal check so you can track the payment.
   
2. Cover Letter (see example). Should include a description of what your are petitioning for (I-129F), a table of contents (list everything in the packet). If you need additional room to explain your case, attach a separate sheet (list the attachment on the cover sheet). Make sure to sign and date the cover sheet.
   
3. Form I-129F: Petition for Alien Fiance(e) (see example)
   
4. Declaration of how you met in person in the last two years. This should be a single typed page regarding question 18 of the I-129F. Make sure to sign and date it.
   
5. Original statements (from both the US Citizen and foreign fiance) certifying an intent to marry within 90 days of entering the US on a valid K-1. (see example)
   
6. Proof of having met in past two years. (click here for examples)
   
7. G-325A (all four pages) filled out by the US Citizen signed and dated (see example)
   
8. One passport-type photo (see specification) of the US Citizen. Write the full name of the US citizen on the back. Place in a plastic bag and label the bag "Photo of <Insert US Citizen's Name>". Attach the bag to a sheet of paper and place behind the corresponding G-325a.
   
9. G-325A (all four pages) filled out by the foreign fiance(e) signed and dated (see example)
   
10. One passport-type photo (see specification) of the foreign fiance(e). Write the full name of the foreign fiance(e) on the back. Place in a plastic bag and label the bag "Photo of (insert foreign fiance(e) name) ". Attach the bag to a sheet of paper and place behind the corresponding G-325a.
    
11. Copy of the Birth certificate (front and back) for the US Citizen or a copy of ALL pages of the US Citizen's passport issued with a validity of at least 5 years or a copy of the US Citizen's naturalization certificate (front and back). This is used to establish citizenship.
    
12. Copy of final Divorce Decree(s) or Certificate(s) for the US Citizen and/or foreign fiance(e) if either has been previously married. If the previous marriage of the US Citizen and/or foreign fiance(e) ended due to the death of their spouse then include a Copy of Death Certificate(s) documenting that fact.
    
13. Proof of Legal Name Change if either the US Citizen and/or foreign fiance(e) is using a name other than that shown on the relevant documents. You must give USCIS copies of the legal documents that made the change, such as a marriage certificate, adoption decree or court order.

Francesco,

What you will also need is the birth certificates ( and divorce decree is applicable ) translated. They will need to be taken from RENIEC - Registro Nacional de Identificación y Estado Civil to Relacciones de Exterior. At Relacciones Exteriores there is a panel of translators who could officially translate the said documents. Just a note from my experience. Hope this helps and do follow the Step by Step Guides found here in VJ. Hope this helps!

For what its worth, everyone writes a story on how they met, But I just wrote on the line in the form, something very simple like; Met on the internet, started calling, talked for months and I visited her in manila.

Darn! I think we included more than whats' being asked I guess that's the problem when you don't read GUIDES.

Thank you all very much, I can't tell you how much you are helping us. I didn't even know about having her certificate translated. I will also need mine translated since I was born in Poggimarino. Thanks for the info guys.

Do I have to send me birth certificate? can I send my citizenship instead? I believe the guide said birth certificate, citizenship or passport. I might of read that wrong.

The reason im asking is because when my parents lost thier home to a house fire last year I lost my birth certificate. also lost my citizen ship but I was issued a new one last month after almost 3 months processing. The officer that was reissuing my citizenship told me that there is a chance i wont get it.. so yeah that was interesting.

(certified copies of course)

Francesco

Yes, if you were born outside of the US then you should send in your citizenship papers. They are mostly interested to know that you are a US citizen. A passport (all pages) would do the job too.

You don't need to send her birth certificate in with the I-129F petition but you will need a translated copy for the interview
