"Original" Letter?

[Mat 0]

The I-129F states that I should include "original statements from you and your fiancé(e) whom you plan to marry within 90 days...".

I took original as meaning that we should write it ourselves rather than use the examples provided here. The problem is that my fiancee doesn't speak english well enough to write a legal-like statement.

Any recommendations? Should I just use the example letter? Should she write something in her language and get it translated?

I thought it might be good to use the example and then let her translate into her own words and language and include it under the body of the letter.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

Mat

By 'original' the instructions mean that you shouldn't send copies. You have to sign and send actual letters signed by each of you. You can use the example with no problems at all.

Ya, it needs to be the original signed paper. The only thing it MUST say is that you intend to marry within 90 days of the beneficiary entering the US as this is a requirement for a K-1. Everything else is fluff, but it's a nice place to say really nice things about your fiance, how you met, what you have been doing since you met, how you feel about your fiance, etc. I cried when I read my fiance's letter, and she did too when she read mine.

What exactly did you send matt? This should have been included with the I-129F package you sent.
