O.K. I have decided I will file for a K-1 visa and I visited the USCIS homepage. I didn't see the G-325a on their site or mentioning of having to send it in with the I-129f. On VJ I was reading the check list for sending a K-1 and it has the G-325a included as if we should send that with the I-129f.

Which is the correct way to do this.. send ONLY the I-129f and later I will be instructed to send the G-325a or what? I'm sorry if i've misunderstood any of this. I appreciate your answers. :)

I too found USCIS instructions hard to understand. After half a day spent on their website we did find that G-325a is required for both the petitioner and the beneficiary. So be sure to send those in with the petition. We followed the VJ guides and everything seems to be fine ;) Best of luck!

Just for the holiday, get it while it's hot. Here's a G325a that's savable with the acrobat reader.

And don;t forget the G-325A is 4 pages (each page = same information) so you need to submit 8 pages total (4 for you and 4 for your fiance)

Sometimes USCIS rejects the package all together for not including this. Other times you might get a RFE.
