Questions on Filling out the K-1 Fiance form

This site has been great. I have some questions about the Form and my situation:

1) My fiance is Mexican (hence latin) and has two last names. Pater and Maternal. I don't want to get technical but it appears there can only be one last name (and one familly name for the matter). But I guess that depends what your definition of familly and last name are.

In Part 2, subsection 2.a asks for Family Name (last name). What is best? Both Paternal and Maternal? Or just paternal?

If just Paternal in Part 2 subsection 2.a, do I put both her paternal and maternal in part 2, subsection 10.a (where it asks for other names used)? (this does not make sense because they only provide the same space as it does in part 2, subsection 2.a., hence if we put the full name in other names used we might as well put it in the very begining.

I just don't want to run in trouble when we go fet her ID at the DMV and get bank account, etc.

ANY ADVICE???

2) Declaration of how we met in person, 34a? and proof having met in past two years. Problems with Proof! need help.

Thechnicall above should be different, since you could have met in well beyond the last two years. We met in early 2008. My problem is that

I have seen her in person plenty of time since 2008, of course plenty of times within the last two years.

However, I live in LA and she lives In TJ. There is no airplane tickets, no greyhound pass, no train ticket. No passport stamt (they don't stamp it when you cross the border). All I have is five pictures of us together ( 1 from 2009, and 4 from about the last two years), stubs from when I took her the movies in 2013, a recipt from a restaurant, and a receipt when I bought her some shoes. Any advice??

3) I am going to go to walgreens and print the picture that I have on my iphone. But should I submit the original pictures of us together or should I submit colored copies on paper (with dates written on the paper).

4) how should the packet be assembled when I submitted (I guess cover letter is table of contents), three ring binder, or two holes on top of pages in legal folder?

5) I don't have a birth cirtificate, but have my naturalization certificate. Will natuaralization certificate suffice?

thanks in advance.

Use the name that is found in her passport.

Send all you have.

3) I am going to go to walgreens and print the picture that I have on my iphone. But should I submit the original pictures of us together or should I submit colored copies on paper (with dates written on the paper).

Both (that's what I did) Write the names on the back of the photos.

4) how should the packet be assembled when I submitted (I guess cover letter is table of contents), three ring binder, or two holes on top of pages in legal folder?

No binder, Paper clips and binder clips only.

5) I don't have a birth cirtificate, but have my naturalization certificate. Will natuaralization certificate suffice?

No, need BC of copy of every page of passport.

thanks in advance.
