RFE For Proof of Intent to Marry!?

[Eruditional 5]

So this is unbelievable that I've received a RFE and they want I got my NOA1 on Nov 25, in my i129f I included not only a letter that inventoried my "Documents that demonstrate intent to marry" I included:

• Letters of intent to marry (Petitioner and Benificiary - one each) Signed in BLUE ink to make sure they knew it was an original
• Evolution of relationship letter
• Chatlogs
• Invoice for engagement ring
• I-134 affidavit of support
• 3 years tax returns
• Letter from employer
• 2 pay stubs

The document I have says that they need "evidence that you and the beneficiary intend to marry within 90 days of the beneficiary's entry to the United States as a K-1."

Well, fortunately we have emails between venues, our wedding planner and us, and I just finished spending all day driving around looking at wedding venues. Too bad I can't send them a video of me carrying around my phone with her on Skype the whole time looking at everything.

Just frustrating! I'm going to have her send a new letter of intent also, handwritten. I have another original copy of one she signed previously, but not sure if I should include that again or if I should wait for her to send me a new one that's handwritten.

They either lost the letters or didn't like the blue ink.

Btw, you didn't need to send in:

• I-134 affidavit of support
• 3 years tax returns
• Letter from employer
• 2 pay stubs

You take those to the embassy.

yeah I know, but I did an i129f for an ex a few years ago who ended up not coming to the US. I included everything that I originally included in my previous petition plus a few things.

Hi,

I am picturing they lost your letters. Just send them again as requested and add chat logs with wedding plans and etc. MAYBE the fact you have applied before and she ended up not going to the States, now they want to make sure it's not going to happen again and need more proofs that she really intends to go.

And yeah, you don't need to include documents for the Affidavit along with your Petition, it's for the Embassy.

It's so difficult to plan a wedding when we don't know for sure when she'll be able to come!

Make sure that your letters explicitly state that you intend to marry within 90 days upon arrival with the K1 Fiance visa.

I think they just lost the letters... and that is all they are asking for .... the blue ink? .... this has been recommended many times on VJ to show it is an original signature.

As far as plans... who can plan anything when there is no reliable time frame given for their approval?

You could call and talk to a Tier 2 and just reconfirm that it is just the letters of intent they are wanting.

Well, I'm including both letters and the emails about wedding planning. I'd prefer to be thorough.

This seems to be a screw-up on USCIS. Blue ink would not matter. Looks like from your own posts you have a handle on it. Answer the RFE is the best choice and reply Certified Mail/Return ASAP.
