When to complete G-325A?

[KayDeeCee 4,891]

The instructions were confusing for me, and I had this same question. I watched several youtube videos where people walked through their i-129f packets and I felt more confident sending mine off. I included the number of photos they suggested for proof of a relationship, and they asked for additional evidence. Don't overdo it, but send them enough evidence so maybe they won't ask you for more in a few months. I applied in April, and my fiancee just was able to schedule his interview at the consulate for November 14. It's taking a lot longer than the 5 months that I read it would take. Calling USCIS with questions can be hit or miss; so many times the operators told me the USA never sends mail to Mexico, which of course isn't true. Well, good luck and be patient!

The I-129F petition does not require any relationship proof. It requires proof of meeting in person within the 2 years prior to filing and photos are only secondary evidence for doing that.

I honestly do not know how the instructions are confusing regarding what is required. They lay it out pretty clearly, and there is even a checklist to download now along with the form and instructions.

For filing fiance petition or the I-129F, I think you use G-325 because G-325A is already for the adjustment of status when she's already here in the US.

If you are not sure of something, then please refrain from posting misinformation. People have received RFEs when they send the wrong form by mistake. The I-129F instructions clearly state the G-325A is the one required. The I-485 instructions also require the G-325A for the adjustment applicant.
