Hello, 


Is it possible to mail extra supporting documents after I had already mailed application for K-1 visa just last week?

 I found a new piece of evidence of name change that was not mailed with the application, is it too late to send it before they send my application back for RFE?

I’ve only send it a copy of naturalization certificate as evidence of name change, but to my surprise I found a court document for petition for name change. I changed the spelling of my first name on the usa naturalization form. So I wasn’t sure if the copy of the naturalization certificate was enough legal evidence of name change.

 

Please help! this is all very stressful and any information on this matter will help. 

thank you

There is no reliable mechanism to do this

 

For clarity,  your question is about a submitted i129f petition which should not be confused with a k1 visa

Yes, the question is about the I-129f form. 

so do you know if a copy of naturalization certificate would count as proof of legal name change? If the name change was done to simply correct previous wrong spelling on first name?

Does anyone out there know the answer to the above question? 🙏

 

For the I-129f..”list any other names you have previously used”

“provide legal evidence of name change”


the name change was actually just a correction of a misspelling on previous name before becoming a USA citizen. And the name change happened during the applying for naturalization...Years ago..

 

 

would a copy of the naturalization certificate count as proof of legal name change? If the name change was done to simply correct previous wrong spelling on first name?

It should count, but you should just wait to see if you receive an RFE for further information. You can't send in additional information at this time. Not sure how you would stop the NOA1 process unless you used a cc and cancelled that cc. Your app would be sent back automatically. I still think waiting for the RFE would be better though?

Hello!

By having a naturalization certificate, issued by an authority, means that all the process for any changes/alterations is final and therefore, chances are you won’t even need to present this extra document.

However, my advice is that you wait for any RFE (if there will ever be one) and, then, you forward this one extra document you have. 

I know it sounds cliche, but try to relax for now.

You will hear from them, for sure. The only thing is it may take a little longer because of the backlog they’re facing now, but they will keep you in the loop.
