Can some documents be filed without an original signature?

I had my fiancee mail the (1) G-325A, the (2) Intent to Marry letter, and (3) a signed additional sheet to the G-325A. It has not arrived yet...and I'm ready to file my I-129F except for these docs. Also, I think her letter of intent to marry should be re-written...so I'm seeking a fast (but approved) way to recreate it without dealing with slow snailmail.

My question is, can any of these forms/statements be submitted as scanned copies with my I-129F petition I'm about to file? I have a feeling that the answer is "no"...so...just thought I'd ask. I know they can require you to produce the original later, but does such a move subject my petition to rejection or delay? If so...which of the 3 documents mentioned above is critical that it be original?

You need original signatures on all. No need for delays due to an RFE for a signature. Instead of snail mail use FedEx/UPS/DHL to speed it up.

You can get by without a signature on the foreign beneficiary's G325a but it must be on the letter of intent. Snail mail is a choice. You can use a courier.

Thanks for both replies. Much appreciated.

By the way...she mailed by Australian Post...and I learned the mailing can be tracked. So...my fiancee tracked it and it got stuck in US Customs!!! So...it just cleared Customs...so maybe I will receive it in another day or two? I'll probably just live with the poorly written letter of intent. I suppose all that is needed is "intent"...so...that part is clear in the letter.

Thanks again.
