I used the http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guideand their example cover letter. I met briefly with a lawyer who suggested some changes. He wanted me to only list the forms on the cover sheet. He said to put the beneficiary's G-325a first, but the guide says the petitioner should be first. Then move everything else to a second page, hand number the bottom of every single page, and then include the page numbers behind each one.

Example...
Birth certificate (12)
Marriage certificate (13)
Divorce Decree (14-35)
I have no problem doing what is necessary. I also get that they are probably okay with either or on some of it. I will number the pages and include a more detailed table of contents if I need to. I think he does things more extensively, which is fine since he gets paid a lot for it :) On the other hand, I do not want to seem lazy.
Appreciate input :)
Thank you!!

OK, you asked.

I used the http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guideand their example cover letter. I met briefly with a lawyer who suggested some changes. He wanted me to only list the forms on the cover sheet. He said to put the beneficiary's G-325a first, but the guide says the petitioner should be first.

Doesn't matter.

Then move everything else to a second page, hand number the bottom of every single page, and then include the page numbers behind each one.

This really doesn't matter because if the lawyer understood what USCIS does to your package when they log it in.....It's in the Sticky Notes at the top of this forum section.....but what they do is

Verify all the necessary forms are attached, then they take everything apart and place the parts into separate folders and then into a master folder and then into a box of petitions. A bar code is attached and is then scanned in. This in turn generates your NOA1. Somewhere in this process they take your check and cash it (they are very efficient at that.). So numbering each page is not necessary since they bust everything up as they see fit.

Example...
Birth certificate (12)
Marriage certificate (13)
Divorce Decree (14-35)

Yea I agree with the above. They separate everything anyway. Also this portion is really about the petitioner. Most likely the reason its listed to put the petitioner's G-325 first. The interview stage is for the beneficiary. BUT in reality I highly doubt the order really matters. I cannot see USCIS returning or denying a petition for that!

I did not number any pages and did not list forms on the cover sheet. I did it exactly the way the example cover letter here shows. USCIS approved my petition in 65 days.

Best of Luck!

Thank you both. I had this all done and close to ready to go. Then I met with him Wednesday afternoon, and whereas I appreciate that he assured me I seem to have plenty of proof and everything. All of these changes are a bit overwhelming since I then had surgery on Thursday and would like to wrap this up and get it in the mail as opposed to sitting at a computer when I should be elevating my leg ;)

Hope everyone has a good holiday season!!
