Submit K1 Packet altogether

[I_Am_That_I_Am 46]

Dear Fellow VJers! I apologize if i posted this on the wrong place but i must admit i tried looking for the "post" button and couldnt find it. Truth is, don't know where to post a question. Im sorry...

Hello Everyone! My fiance and I are now working on our papers and almost done with all the k1 requirements. We hired a paralegal (working in INS Orlando) and she helps us put together everything. I have been reading lots of articles, comments, etc related to K1 for the past months so somehow i know the basic. My concern is this: the paralegal lady told us to submit our papers via "installment" instead of submitting them all at once. She said it is better that way and it's alright to receive the RFE. After getting RFEs, submit what they need and add one more form. Wait for the next RFE and submit another form and so on. Personally, i don't think this is wise and im afraid that if we follow her advice, the more time we will be wasting. For those who are in same situation, please give me your ideas. Do you think it's good move to follow her or i go with my plan of submitting all the requirements altogether at once?

Your replies will be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.

Sorry but your "paralegal" is a "para-idiot" I do not believe it's best to "front load" the I-129f however, it's not difficult to give the supporting evidence for what is required. Just think, each RFE has the ability to add a month or more to the process, it's bad enough to get just one. In fact The USCIS may just return it to you for being incomplete. Please just spend some time here at VJ obviously your paralegal does not.. Good luck and godspeed!

That is out right ridiculous, you'd be lucky if you get an rfe as opposed to everything being sent back to you for incomplete package.

I suggest you drop the para-idiot. Get all your paperwork together, check and pictures and submit it all at once using trackable mail.

No offense - but that is the worst idea ever. Why would you want to delay yourself in dealing with RFEs, etc.?

If you're paying this paralegal throughout the process, the only thing I can think is that she would make more money in handling your case, dealing with your RFEs, etc.

Send everything you need to send form the 'guide' in one go.

Wow.

This post is exactly why VJ members suggest doing this process on your own rather than hiring someone.
