Start by printing out all the instructions from USCIS on their website for the I129F , here is the link to the USCIS forms page. http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.eb1d4c2a3e5b9ac89243c6a7543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

Here is the link to the actual I129f instructions (7 pages) and the I129f form (3 pages) http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis/menuitem.5af9bb95919f35e66f614176543f6d1a/?vgnextoid=a10e4154d7b3d010VgnVCM10000048f3d6a1RCRD&vgnextchannel=db029c7755cb9010VgnVCM10000045f3d6a1RCRD

Start with that and see how you feel after reading everything thoroughly. As questions come up come here to the boards and ask. Take your time and dont rush. If you can make it through this then the rest of the forms are much easier.

Most people here on VJ do it themselves. You just need to read all the instructions and guides and follow exactly what they say. Post on VJ and ask for advice if you get stuck on anything.

Yes. It is less complicated than a college application and even less complicated than the job applications for big box stores. The vast majority of K-1s do not use attorneys.

Download the forms, read the instructions. Anything there you cannot answer? It is a two page form asking personal information, an attorney cannot even fill it out unless you tell them everything.

You found this site so I'm sure you have no problem filing it yourself. I myself initially had no idea about filling or even knew there was such a thing called K1 :bonk: but thanks to this site and additional researching I was able to submit our petition. Now I just hope it will be process soon without any delays. Keep reading the materials here. Good luck!
