Requiring the signature will not be a problem but COULD delay the delivery. The post office will put a notice in the drop box that they need to sign for a delivery and someone will have to go to the post office, wait in line and sign for your package.

Delivery confirmation tat can be tracked online is all that is needed.

So they will go then? The tracking online says a notice has been left for them i was just worried that they wouldn't actually go pick it up and sign for it and we would hav to wait for it to be returned and then resend it to the right place or sent without a signature required thing. Thank you i got awfully worried lol

My fiance sent in our package to the dallas lock box and he got a tracking number for it since the post office lost my money order when i tried to send it to him, the problem being he sent it with a signature needed, without knowing, he asked for them not to require a signature since it was a drop box. my question is will they pick this up or will it be sent back to him. If they won't pick this up are we able to call and have it forwarded to another address? im super worried now that this will not make it to the right place, please help, i want this process to go smoothly.

thanks in advance.

I'm going to post here as well and see if any Canadians can give me their take on the situation...

My Fiancé and I are about to send in our package, and I have my vacation booked to see him for Christmas. Since we are only JUST mailing the I-129F petition, I'm wondering if when I cross the boarder should I mention that we have just applied for the K1 visa and are awaiting our approval?

I don't want to go to the boarder and say I'm visiting a 'boyfriend' when I've just applied for a Fiancé visa, but at the same time because I'm driving to North Dakota (2 hours from me) and flying out of there to save money, I don't want to be turned away from the boarder.

I am only going to see him for 2 weeks (dec.22- jan 7) should I still bring a letter from my landlord just stating I've given her post dated cheques and a letter from my employer stating I am due back at work in January? I worry far more than I probably should but i just want to make sure I get there for Christmas with him and his family.

Thanks everyone!

Should we save ourselves the hassle of getting a possible RFE and just send the originals of the proof of ongoing relationship and having met in person? I don't want to send the photocopies and then have them turn around and ask me for the originals via RFE and delay my application...

Thanks guys!

Hello all!

I have sent everything to my fiancé for him to put together the k1 package for us and mail it out. I want to make sure everything runs smoothly so if i could get a little advice or a few pointers?

I have the following in a folder, everything that is together is attached with paper clips knowing that I'm not supposed to staple anything;

Cheque in amount of current fee for filing I129

cover letter

g-1145

I 129F

I-129 F supplement part B question 18

G-325 A -Sponsor(attached photo)

G-325 A -Beneficiary (attached photo)

Letter of intent to marry-sponsor

Letter of intent to marry- Beneficiary

his proof of American citizenship (both sides of birth certificate)

proof of having met in person (includes passport stamps with flight itineraries [as i cannot find the boarding passes] and receipt, pictures of us together in both his country and mine, letters from my mom and best friend certifying our relationship, letter from his mom certifying our relationship)

is there anything I'm leaving out? neither of us have been married, engaged in criminal activity or require any other sort of certificates or decrees.

Also, how do you put it together, can we just leave it in the plain filing folder all together and pop that in an envelope? does it need to be in any sort of order? we're sending this out as soon as he has it put together!!! Wish us luck!

Hello again! You guys were so much help before and i got everything ready to go but came to a snag so i'm all ready to file and get this going i just have a few last minute questions about what i need to do

First off- When we send the "proof" of relationship ie. my phone records, can i black out all the numbers that aren't his? My parents, friends, and colleagues really don't need to have their numbers mailed out in my opinion.

Secondly- do we send photocopies of the pictures first and bring originals, or should i go to walmart and make copies of all my photos? They were taken on a phone and printed off the computer though i'm sure many people do this, i'm just curious about the correct procedure.

third- I've read through the step by step guide a thousand times and steps 12-14 do not apply to our situation, should i state somewhere, maybe in the cover letter, that neither of us have been married/ divorced/ convicted of any crimes? or will they figure that out through the other forms (biographic information and such?)

I think that is everything, thank you guys in advance, you're all amazing, can't wait to get this all under way!! Take care!

Okay so I'm new to this and have JUST started to fill out all the applications and get everything together for my K1 package. Now even though I've read through 90% of the discussions on this forum (which all of you are so very helpful and informative) I just want to get some things clarified if possible.

First off, I have to say, I'm doing most of the work on this because my fiance is pretty busy and is helping as much as possible but I tend to be a little bit of a perfectionist and don't share tasks well, as well I happen to enjoy scouring the internet for information into the wee hours of the morning, so I'm doing my best to get everything done properly for what HE needs to fill out and what I need to fill out. He's sponsoring me to move to the states, and I'm from Canada.

I have the I-129f filled out, all my fiance has to do is sign it.

My G-325A finished and ready, I still need to get the photo done.

We have the G-1145 set out in his name so we get notification of the acceptance.

I have a cover letter, questions 18, letters of intent to marry from him and myself,

letters, pictures, phone records, skype log, and receipts (proof of meeting)

Neither of us have been married, convicted of crimes or have had our names changed for any reason, therefor we have no need for the certificates requested.

Is there anything I'm missing?

I saw on some of these topics that people had friends and family members write letters, declaring that the relationship is bona fide and real. His Mother is more than willing, as is mine and a few of our friends. Should these be included in this package, or is this something that comes up in the second part of the filing?

Also, to whom do I address the cheque for payment of the petition (I have not seen this anywhere and I feel foolish asking seeing as how everyone else seems to know) lol, and does my fiance, the petition(er) need a G-325A form filled out as well? I noticed that on the K1 step by step, but on the site it says "To provide biographic information on an alien. You file this form only as instructed on another Immigration application or petition." So is it necessary for him, since he is a born-resident of the United States? That one confuses me.

Any other advice would be wonderful as well, thank you in advance to anyone who has any tips or can answer any, if not all, of my questions!
