I agree. This is a classic example of an OP not asking the right questions and thinking they know the process. If he had asked if the I-693 was necessary instead of asking for civil surgeon recommendations, the thread would have been a lot shorter!

That may not be possible if you can't prove that she intends to re-establish domicile. It sounds like you do not have very strong evidence for this. The strongest evidence would be if she actually moved back to the US ahead of you.

Correct. If your K-1 medical is complete, you do not need an I-693 if you file your AOS within a year after the medical. If you have a copy of the DS-3025, you can include that in your packet (make sure to keep a copy as well). If you receive a request to bring an I-693 to your interview, bring the DS-3025 and the I-693 instructions to clarify that you should not need to redo your medical.

If you completed your K-1 medical and the DS-3025 was signed off as complete, and you filed your AOS within a year after doing the K-1 medical, you do not need an I-693. This is very clearly explained in the I-693 instructions, on pages 7 and 8 (https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-693instr.pdf). So either your K-1 medical was incomplete, not properly signed off, you filed your AOS very late, or whoever told you that you need an I-693 is wrong. It is generally recommended to make sure to complete the K-1 medical to avoid having to redo the medical in the US. There are only a few cases where it would make sense to not complete the K-1 medical (for example, postponing certain vaccinations due to pregnancy). For the record, I did the K-1 and AOS. But everyone else here also understands this process. It is not that complicated and the instructions are very clear.

Read the I-129F instructions. It has a list of required evidence that you have to send with your petition; just the form is not enough. USCIS does not send a checklist. Depending on the country in which the beneficiary is interviewing, they may receive a checklist from the consulate with a list of documents to mail or bring to the consulate.

I would first make an effort to find the address. Google is your friend. If she really can't find the information (which is hard to believe, but okay), "unknown" is an option. But I would not want to submit an employment history with lots of unknowns.

I think you have a pretty decent list of evidence, especially with the insurance and joint bank account. You could consider including a letter explaining the living situation so they'll know why there isn't a lease.

I totally agree with @mam521! We did the K-1 and absolutely regretted it. It was such a stressful, depressing start of our marriage. We got through it, but 8 months sitting at home in a new country with no friends, no job, no driver's license, while my husband worked extra hours to support both of us, was just miserable. You have a chance now to get married and file the I-130 online. Weddings are just a bit different when immigration is involved. We just did a courthouse wedding and keep saying that some day we'll do a big celebration to renew our vows, but we've been married for over 6 years now and haven't done anything. Maybe for our 10 year anniversary... 🤣
