Hello again : ) Just going through the paperwork I need to fill in for the K1, and I have a few questions about the addresses...

1.

The I-129F part B, question 2 asks for the alien fiance's current address. I'm in the states until the end of April, and I'm not entirely sure whether the package will be mailed before I leave (we have to wait until Malia's police and court paperwork turn up). Do I put my (I'm the alien, by the way) address as my temporary address in the states, or as my address in the UK?

2.

Pretty much the same question for the g-325a, the words "until present" are used... i've been at this address since november, so its definitely got to go down, but is it the last address, or shall i put my prospective UK address down (its my folk's house)? I assume that have different most recent addresses on the I-129F and the G-325A forms will cause a hiccup?

3.

I-129F part B question 14: Address in the US where your fiance intends to live.

Well, my g/f is currently in rehab and will be out in August, after which she'll probably come to the UK as a visitor for a few months, so its no use putting her address down. What on earth do I put down here? her mum's address maybe? Is this important? can I just put "unknown"?

4.

And finally, the NOA etc will be sent to my g/f's rehab address, I assume, since that will be the current address of the petitioner on the I-129F. When she gets out of rehab is it possible to change the address?

Thanks in advance :)

tom_g,

Are you living in the USA or just on an extended visit? Semantics can sometimes be important.

I'm on a B-2 tourist visa, been here since since November, and i'm leaving end of April. Back in the UK, i'll be living at my folks' house until I find a contract, then i'll be moving to whereever the contract is.

thanks

Tom

It certainly looks that way.

So my current US address is not important, and can be safely missed off both forms?

Care to share what you've found? :)

its only from digging around on this site :)

Basically, I'm to consider my stay in the us to be an extended vacation, with my UK address as my 'current' address. Since i'm not working here, am living in a rented condo, etc, this isn't where I "live", for any value of the term.

As far as intended address goes, I'm able to write "To be determined" in the street address box, then "San Francisco, California" in the Town/city boxes.

And I should put my G/f's current address in rehab as the mailing address, as this can be changed later, albeit at the expense of some b*allache :)

spent about 11 hours yesterday just in filling in the I-129F and both G-325a's. I don't trust official forms, they appear to be asking straight-forward questions, but the more you think about them, the more meanings they could have. Shakespear would be proud :)

tom_g,

The forms are asking straight-forward questions - it's the thinking about it that does people in. Freud would be ecstatic at the thought of so many potential subjects.

On the more serious side of things - Yodrak is right. That's the one bit of advice our attorney (consulted, not retained) gave my fiance to pass on to me: DON'T read these forms like lawyer. They are written to like a 6th grade reading level. Leaves some problems, yes, but more problems are created by thinking "oooh, but what do they realllllly mean."

You see that a lot around here on the simpler questions. Like where do I mail the form. That's usually the easiest part of the process.

There are, of course, exceptions and things that don't make as much sense, but that's what the guides and the examples and even the galleries here are good for.

But don't over think it.

Tom_g,

I could go 'form diving' and look for questions about fathers, but I think I'll wait for you to identify the form, the question, and tell us what answer you gave before deciding if I have an opinion as to whether or not the answer needs to be expanded upon.

Yodrak

Well, only one form so far has asked about my father... do you reckon I should expand on my answer?
