Dohn,

I am in the same boat. Mine was transmitted on the 5th. When my fiance contacted the consulate, they asked her to keep contacting them for verification. They also said it can take between 5-14 days for it to arrive and my fiance should be receiving an email.

I was able to file the DS-160 through the website. Make sure to save all confirmation pages in pdf. It also has option to email it to you.

Hello all. Literally few minutes back I got 6 text messages from USCIS saying my petition has bee approved. It has been long grueling wait to get this moved to next step. I will keep my timeline up to date.

Thank you very much for all the help.

allende, Avery Cates, Zedayn, Thank you very much for your quick replies.

Thanks to this snow storm, I didn't mail the papers today and what a luck. From what I read from all three comments, I only have to make very minor changes.

Again thank you very much. I will try to keep my timelines posted once I get things ready and sent out.

Firstly, any advice/guidance people can give me will be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

Hello,

I am Indian, and I have been here since 1992. I just got engaged last month. As such I am trying to file K1 Petition to bring my Fiance here to the US. What I want to do is file everything myself as I have done several different filings before from my Green Card to my Citizenship.

I have read several pieces of information both at the ***removed***, and this site, and compiled basic set of documents and want to confirm I have gathered all the items into the package. As I am little paranoid, I am submitting little extra information then normal. If questions come, I/my Fiance who is of course more smarter than me can easily answer.

Also, hopefully this thread helps others little more as I am not finding clear and concise information of everything that needs to be in the package.

1. I want to get a better understanding of the second lock box address they USCIS have provided.
1.1. USCIS; P.O. Box 660151, Dallas, TX 75266 - looks like any normal mail.
1.2. USCIS; Attn: I-129F; 2501 South State Highway 121 Business Suite 400; Lewisville, TX 75067 - says it for express and courier deliveries. I can understand courier, but what does the express mean? Is it standard USPS Express Mail or FedEx or UPS Only.

--------------

Below is what I am placing in the package excluding the cover letter. I have pasted literally everything cover letter TOC.

1. Enclosed payment in the amount of $1,130 (# ).
1.1. $340 for I-129F Filing, $200 for Medical Fee, $240 Visa Fee

2. I-129F ORIGINAL SUBMISSION
2.1. 34.a of the I-129F
2.2. Copy of my US Passport and Citizenship Certificate

3. Letter certifying intent to marry (My Name)

4. Letter certifying intent to marry (Fiance's Name)

5. Proof of having met in person in the past two years and ongoing relationship
5.1. My Travel History Document form British Airways Website
5.2. Betrothal Invitation,
5.3. Engagement Photos
5.4. Phone Records from Google Voice

6. G-1145 E-Notification

7. G-325A and passport style photo (My Name)

8. G-325A and passport style photo (Fiance's Name)

9. Form I-134, Affidavit of Support
9.1 Includes documents related to my bank balances, 401K savings etc.

-------------------

What I am not including in the package. I want these to be filled by Fiance as she is creating the profile in our consulate. Even though I am not including these, the above payment I am sending includes the Medical Fee. Does this create any issues.

1. DS-156 and DS-156K - Non Immigrant Fiance Visa Applications
