Ok, so I have my I-129F packet pretty much assembled and am planning to send it by next Friday.

What is the best way to hold it together?

Been told a two hole punch at the top with a bracket, would one of those 3 hole side punch project folders with the clear cover work? I got picture sleeves to put the pictures in as well.

How did you guys put your packet together?

do you know where I can get those? I tried looking at my office supply place and they didn't have anything like that. ACCO is a company, not a type of product. They have folders with 4 pages (I know, we use them in Accounting at work) but no, one page, like a backing with a 1 fastener at the top...

Nevermind....found Just the fasteners!
