A HUGE Congratulations to you both !!!!!!

Hi All,

I have a quick question about the Bio forms (G-325A). For starters, I know that both Petitioner and Beneficiary need to fill out their own forms in quadruplicate, so that you have a total of 8 pages.

My question is actually about the big, bold box at the bottom of each of the pages of the form that says "APPLICANT" right above. Now, on the Petitioner's version (mine), do I put my name in that bold box, or do I put Alina's name in there even though it's my form?

Thanks for bearing with me

Hi all,

This maybe an extremely silly question, but I was wondering what type of envelope, or packaging everyone used for sending their packet in.

I'm planning on putting the documents inside of a large manila envelope (sealed and labelled with our names and "I-129F Original Submission) and then putting this inside of a USPS Express Service envelope (Tyvex is the material). I'll also write "I-129F Original Submission" in red marker on the outside of the postal envelope.

Does this sound good?

Thanks for bearing with

Thank you all for your insightful responses and help!!!!

One quick question in regards to the passport copies:

Can I just photocopy the picture page (first page) and then include all of the pages with just the visas and stamps? Or do I need to make copies of the entire passport?

The reason I ask is because I have two passports spanning the 4 meetings (one which expired immediately following our first meeting, and then my current passport which is one of those supersized 48 pagers). If I was to copy all pages of both passports, that would be something like 36 sheets of paper. I'm just trying to save time, paper, and possible adjudicator headaches.

Thanks again!

Hi all,

What a great board!!!! Long time lurker, first time poster...

I'm finally putting together my K-1 packet for Alina and I after almost two years of acquaintance and 4 trips within the last year and a half.

I know one of the conditions for being approved for the visa is to have actually met in person within the last two years. Well, I've visited Alina 4 times (as mentioned above) within that stipulated time period. Now here's the big question:

How many of these trips should I show documentation for (photos, passport pages, airline boarding stubs, itineraries, hotel receipts, train tickets, etc)? It almost seems like overkill to send in all of this stuff for all of these trips. Can I just get away with sending in the evidence for the first trip, and then mention in my I-129F supplement that we've met 3 other times and then list the dates of those trips?

Honestly, it would take an adjudicator a year to go through all of the documentation I have on this relationship, and I've actually heard that too much evidence can work against you.

So which is it, and what should I do???

Thanks!
