Hey Guys, I am compiling all the papers and getting ready to send my application. I just want to make sure I have everything and I understand everything.

Any advice/help/ideas/criticisms or anything at all regarding my papers, please let me know. Thanks (Using the guide as a checklist)

I will be sending in a personal check for the $455 fee (is that still preferable, so I can see that it has been cashed?)

I have the cover letter ready, but I was told that I can include a brief timeline of my relationship with my girlfriend, is that recommended to add?

I-129F filled out by hand due to insufficient space for answers when using the computer w/ attached copy of description on how we last met within 2yrs

I have plenty of pictures included from our trip when I last visited her, I also included boarding passes and itineraries of our vacation. I don't have my boarding pass to the Philippines, but I have both our boarding passes when we went to different cities in the philippines for vacation. We have been together for almost 6yrs starting from when we met in college in the Philippines. So should I include letters, pictures and other proof of our ongoing relationship now or is that something she needs to bring when she goes for interview?

Original statements of intent to marry from both myself and my fiance (On the statement itself, I followed the example here in VJ, but the address my fiance put down was Vermont, before we knew that we should send to Texas, should I get a new letter from her or can I just leave it as Vermont, but send to Texas when I file?)

G-325A filled out both by myself and my fiance, handwritten again due to insufficient space.

Passport type photo of myself and fiance done and placed in bag with proper labels.

I have a copy of my Naturalization form, but the back is empty, so I only need to send the front copy right? and should I send a copy of my passport just in case?

CLARIFICATION

Do I need to send in a copy of my most recent (2009) tax return?

Is the affidavit of support sent in during this time? (I probably will use a co-sign because my tax return from last year is below poverty line, but this year it should be above the line since I just recently been promoted to full-time. But I have been working the same job for over 2 years already.

Along with these papers, do I send in a letter from my manager that I am now full-time and how long I have worked there?

Please let me know if I am missing anything and/or need to change anything.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this lengthy post. I really appreciate it.

(just want to make sure everything is sent in correctly the 1st time)

Your employment/income/tax information won't be necessary until the interview stage for your fiancée.

As for the addresses on the letters of intent, I would keep them as Vermont. Even though you'll be sending the package to Texas, they'll simply be doing the intake. VSC is who will be looking through your package for review.

You can include the timeline of your relationship to the I-129F form, as a continuation of the answer to question 18. It's not necessary, but you can.

Proof of an ongoing relationship isn't needed until the interview stage, unless you're dealing with a high fraud country, then you should front load your application.
