Hello everyone. I am getting ready to mail out my application for the K-3 spouse visa. My question is this: do we send the original NOA1 for form I-130, or is it ok to make a photocopy and send the photocopy of the NOA1 instead? If anyone can help me with this it would be greatly appreciated! As always, good luck to everyone out there :thumbs:

Yes, definitely a photocopy. Save the original, you'll need it later.

I suggest you double check on going with the CR-1 instead of messing with the K3

K1 denied, K3/K4, CR-1/CR-2, AOS, ROC, Adoption, US citizenship and dual citizenship

!! ALL PAU!
