Letter of Intent for I-129

[MattV 0]

Confused.

On the guide for the I-129 it says: "Original statements (from both the US Citizen and foreign fiance)"

I assume that we both need to fill these out.?

I'm confused what address we are suppose to add for each letter.

The example on this site says write the (USCIS service center address).

I assume that both I and she would use the Vermont address.

Also on the example, it says if submitting for interview, instead of using the above Vermont address. We should use the:United States Department of State

United States Consulate, [name of country where Embassy is located]

[Embassy Address]

I'm not sure if we are submitting for an interview at this step? Or is the person who is coming to the states applying for an interview and should that person add that info onto the sheet?

Also, anyone have link to the Vermont USCIS address. I can find the mailing address but not the real address. Or is that what they want.

Thanks

The example can be a little confusing because they are examples for both the initial petition stage (when submitting the I-129f package) and again for the interview stage (where you will submit them again).

For the initial I-129f stage you'll use the Service Center address and for the interview, you'll change this to the Embassy/Consulate. If that helps.

ok, so both of us should use the Service center in Vermont for our first applications.

At a later stage, we will need to send these two documents again and we will use the Embassy where she is located.

I am the USA citizen, am i correct saying that only she will be getting an interview.

Yes, but it's highly recommended in most instances that the U.S. citizen be on or near the consular premises during the interview. That way, at minimum, you can hand your passport to the interviewee to take in and show the consul. This cannot hurt and will always help.

The address you put on the letter is really not important, you will be sending it with your I-129f anyway. The VJ samples are great, we used them verbatim, just make one for each of you and you both sign them. Some people also give another letter at the interview, some consulates require it. Just use the same letter and change the date.

Only your fiancee has an interview but I strongly suggest you attend, if nothing else for her morale.

Ouch! Racial insensitivity against myself!

My bad!

Thanks for making it a little clearer.

Just a note, it's a little unclear. The letter of intent gets mailed with your I-129f packet not just a single letter all on its own. Not srue if that what you were getting at.

Best of luck on your first steps!

One funny mistake I made was that I prepared 2 letters, one for me and one for her

(to be sure they were identical except in the order of the names).

I did forget to change my SIGNATURE at the bottom of her letter to HER name

and we had a back and forth about "should I change your name to mine" and I

said No but I was thinking about the BODY of the letter and she was (correctly)

referring to the signature.

It doesn't hurt to double & triple check.

Best,
