Scan or Copy..? and another q

[Josh-and-Leona 0]

Hello, For the I-129f packet I was wondering if it mattered whether or not I made colored copies of my birth certificate, passport, passport stams ect.. or if they have to be scanned?

Also, thought id go for another toofer...

My fiance had a US student visa last year and opened up a wacovia(sp) bank account while doing an internship for the university. Would it be helpful to include one of her old pay stubs and transaction receipts? She did, however leave money in that account after she returned to ireland.. soo.. would that leave an impression that she had "business like" intentions to return to the US and cause a negative effect for our petition? Thanks

photocopies/scanned copies are ok.. for the bc, passport, tickets etc. except for the 2 forms and the letter of intent. You might also want to submit original printed pics just 6-8 pieces will do. Good Luck

I sent in an original birth cert (you can usually get them online or call your local health board) and color scans of our passports, but I think black and white would have been fine, as long as you can read the stamps.

I also don't think I would say anything about her bank account unless you're desperate for evidence that you've met. Not that you're hiding anything but it could just complicate things needlessly. I had a bank acct. in Ireland and didn't say anything, and didn't need to.

we were told by uscis to provide an original birth cert, not a copy
