My fiancee passport

[Joe98 31]

I wanted to ask about the beneficiary passport. Does my filipina fiancee need a copy of her passport for anything?  We are in the process of having the k1 visa paperwork filed with my local lawyer and I did give him a copy of her passport. But there isn't anything on the uscis website that says it is needed. I have read that her passport just needs to be valid for at least 6 months at the time of her eventual interview in Manila. But she is concerned that her passport doesn't have the same address as her birthplace. I told her she can get a new passport if she wants but it is really not necessary.  I am hoping someone will let me know whether or not i am correct about my assumption.

Nope a copy of the beneficiary passport is not needed by USCIS for the I-129F process.   

 

Embassy will want the actual passport later, but no a copy is not needed NOW.
