Sent i-134 and G325 with i129f

[sarsorti 36]

I was just wondering if there would be a problem as we sent all three necessary forms at one time. I called USCIS before applying for i129f and they told me where to find forms and instructions so I assumed all three were necessary at once. I hope they don't get lost in the shuffle, even though I made copies of everything. Is it possible by sending all three at once the time to process will be quicker?

The G325A has to accompany the I-129F. There has to be 1 from you and 1 from your significant other (both signed etc).

The I-134 goes to embassy (where they actually make the decision on the Visa) with whoever the foreign national is to show proof of ability to support.

Do not send the I-134 with the I-129F.

I would read the I-129F instructions on what is required very very very closely.

No. The process won't be quicker if you add the I-134 form, because that form needs to be revised by the embassy, not by USCIS.

If you want to still include them in your packet, go right ahead; but it will not make any difference. They won't pay attention to it and you'll still have to re do it at the time of the interview (+5 months down the road) to show you can support your SO.

Follow the guide http://www.visajourney.com/content/k1guide and send only what it says there, you'll be set.

Thank you for the information, unfortunately I sent all three (4) at once (and 2 G325 his/hers) back in Aug., worst case scenario is as you say will have to do it again.

Yes, you are correct about reading instructions very very closely, and I really did. Took me almost 3 weeks to prepare all the information and make sure it was accurate and what they were looking for. One MUST really read the instruction page and understand what they are looking for. It really is emotionally draining, almost feels hopeless at times, but HOPE is all we have in these situations.

It won't be a worst case scenario, though. You will have to show an updated version of the form, even if that means that the only thing that changed since you filed, is the date

In that case maybe it will be better than the first one...really thanks for the information.

Did you send form G325 or G325a? Not sure what the difference is but there is a difference.

I sent G325 for him and G325a for myself. Both are biographical forms. ####### I hope I did it right.

[TJandJR 69]

Instructions in guide say a g325a from each of you. But I've heard people say there is hardly any difference between the two forms. Go ahead and have him fill out and sign g325a and mail it to you. Then you will have it already if you get an rfe. Just my opinion.

When in doubt, follow the instructions. The Form I-129F instructions, clearly state on page 2:

http://www.uscis.gov/files/form/i-129finstr.pdf

"6. What Other Documents Do You Need?

A. Submit a completed and signed Form G-325A (Biographic Information) for you and a completed and signed Form G-325A for your fiancé(e). Except for name and signature, you do not have to repeat on the Biographic Information form the information given on your Form I-129F."

Good luck on your visa journey.
