  1. Update: Approved! I-129F Sent : 2023-09-15 I-129F NOA1 : 2023-09-18 I-129F RFE: 2024-03-19 RFE Reply received : 2024-03-26 I-129F NOA2 : 2024-03-27
  2. So I got an RFE with the following: ---------------------------------------------------------- MISSING PAGE Your Form I-129F is missing page 8 of 13. Complete all items on the page 8 of 13 of the I-129F petition, (edition 3/21/22) include your signature and date and return with your response. If any item does not apply, write "N/A". ---------------------------------------------------------- Page 8 is basically continuation of Part 2. Information About Your Beneficiary, International Marriage Broker (which I didn't use), and Part 3. Other Information (criminal information). There is no line / space / anything about signature on that page. Do I just sign it (signature is an example, not my signature) at the top like in the attached document? Thanks in advance for the help! rfe_page8.pdf
  3. Yes. I did for mine. You have to fill out a credit card authorization form. More information here: https://www.uscis.gov/pay-with-a-credit-card
  4. Sent my I-129F out on September 15, 2023. USPS delivered on September 19, 2023. Filing fee charged to credit card on September 20, 2023. Waiting on NOA1 Petitioner: California Beneficiary: Vietnam
  5. Father's name is NOT on fiance's birth certificate. Engagement ceremony in Vietnamese culture is just a ritual that's not legally binding. The groom and/or groom family ask the bride's family and bride for her hand for future marriage. There are gifts exchanged. But she cannot be considered as my wife, not traditionally nor by law. Engagement ceremony in the Vietnamese culture, as I understand it, is just a promise to marry.
  6. Good luck to us! I think I'll just try to get the name and DOB of my fiance's deadbeat dad and provide an explanation why his name isn't on the birth certificate.
  7. Yes, it is. It's part of Vietnamese culture. However, I'm having second thoughts about including pictures of it since I'm not sure how culturally sensitive / understanding the person who'll look at my file will be.
  8. Pictures were of us a dressed up, but not overly, exchanging jewelry. I don't want it to be misconstrued as a wedding. There were other dressed up relatives in the picture, fiance's elder relatives and my mother. I have other pictures that were more informal that had nothing to do with any type of ceremony so those I'll use.
  9. Holy (removed). Thanks for the heads up. I have some pictures of the engagement but now it might be a good idea not to include them after reading some more about that.
  10. It's a sore, emotional subject. But I definitely will ask my mother-in-law. Yeah, I can see how that can be misinterpreted as something not bonafide.
  11. So my fiance's father abandoned the family before she was born. She was raised by her mom, brother, and extended family on mom's side. Fiance's birth certificate does not have her father's name (only mother). No one in the family really mentioned the father, and when they did, it was not in any favorable light. I don't even know the guy's name or where he is. So my question is: on the I-129F, page 6, the section about the beneficiary's parents, can I just put down the father's name as N/A? And explain the situation in the Supplementary explanation section?
  12. Thank you for sharing. I have some anxiety regarding that issue and tried to search around without any concrete answers. So thank you for sharing your case. I will proceed with the rest of the application.
  13. Hello, I'm filling out the I-129F application and ran into an issue. A little bit of background information: I previously filed (and got approved) for K-1 visa about 10 years ago. After 9 years of marriage, my ex-spouse and I agreed to part ways and we had an amicable divorce. So I met someone new and filling out the K-1 visa application for the second time. However, I totally forgot the exact date of my last filing. This information is requested on Page 4, question #46 on the I-129F application. I know the approximate time period (give or take a month), but the exact date I have no idea. Should I put the approximate date? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
