Congrats and good luck for the next steps

Congrats!!!

If you will download the I-129F form here in VJ, that was the old form. You can still use it according to USCIS if you will file your application until September 16, 2013. But I suggest for you to use the new edition of I-129F (the one available in USCIS website).

The Part B Qustion 18 will then become Part 2 Question 34A. And you will just still follow the advice of VJ to hae it single-typed, signed, and dated declaration of how you met in person in the last two years.

i have read in one of the threads here that there is one who received RFE because they just scanned and print the document with signature instead of actually having the form signed. I think it would be best if your fiance abroad will just send u through mail or an express courier service (faster) the forms with his/her actual signature

About my G-325A (this version: http://www.uscis.gov...form/g-325a.pdf):

1. The section that reads 'File Number A'. I don't have this number, as I have not applied and am not a US citizen (obviously). I presume that this is the Alien Registration Number, which is also mentioned at the bottom of the form. Should I leave this blank?

just leave it blank

2. The section about 'U.S. Social Security No. (if any)'. I was a student in the US for 5 months and was given a job by my university while there. For this I was given a Social Security number, but this was in early 2007. Should I include this?

it should be included and once your visa application is approved, you will just need to update it together with your status.

3. The section 'This form is submitted in connection with an application for:' Should I tick 'Other' and specify K-1 Visa?

tick 'other' and specify I-129F

About the I-129F (this version: http://www.uscis.gov...form/i-129f.pdf):

1. Part 2 question 11, again I do not have an Alien Registration Number. What should I put here?

again, just leave it blank

2. Part 2 question 12, again should I put my old Social Security number?

yes

3. Part 2 question 15, I will not be in the US when out application is filed, so do I fill any of this section out? I notice there is no where else on the form to put my passport number.

you just have to answer those items if the beneficiary is currently in the US during the application. if not, you may put N/A on the first item (15.a.) then leave the other items pertaining to that same question (15.b. to 15.h.) blank. your passport number is not anyway needed at this stage except if you are currently in the US.

I hope that helps! Good luck on your application

Divorce decree is the proof you need. The dates are so close though. Don't think it makes a difference, but it sure doesn't look good.

What do you mean by "it doesn't look good"?

So the paper which was sent to him by the court with words "Final judgement" and names of the judge and court's clerk + the date of marriage termination still cannot be considered as an eligibility to get marry?

Hey everybody!

Sooooo I just noticed there is a new form i-129f AND the instructions are totally different.

For example before you couldn't leave anything blank! Now the instructions say to

"Answer all questions fully and accurately. If an item is not applicable or the answer is “none,” leave the space blank."

Now I'm nervous all over again.

Hoping I fill out this form correctly!!!!

**fingers crossed**

We willalso be using the new I-129F form. I am actually done filling it up and printing it. What I have done was I put None or N/A just on the first item but leave other items pertaining to the same question blank. I have read one who did the same thing and another one who placed None or N/A to all questions where his answer is just that. They said they didn't have any problem so far.

My fiance (petitioner) had a divorce and got his divorce judgement last July but it was stated on the papers that marriage will be terminated on August 23 before he can be allowed to marry again. We are already done in preparing our I-129F packet for our K1 visa application and plans to send it on August 26 after the final termination of his previous marriage. But we are confused with what to send as an evidence of his eligibility to marry. Is the divorce judgement paper sent to his home from the court enough as a proof? It has a stamp with the court clerk's and judge's name on it in addition to the entry of judgement date and the date of the termination of marriage. Or do we still need to obtain a divorce decree from the court? Aren't they the same thing?

I'm a March 2013 filer who was approved in 100 days or so...looking back at my copy of my petition I can see my forms have the same expiration dates as these "new" forms...I put NONE and N/A on my forms and I had no problem

thanks for the info! im worrying less now

I have finalized my I-129F packet and decided to put None or N/A only on the first item where my answers are none/NA but for other items pertaining to the same question i just left it blank. I will finally send my application on August 26. I hope I will not have any problem with it

Congrats! I hope mine will be that fast also Im currently preparing and finalizing our I-129F packet and will be sending it to the USCIS on August 26.
