Affidavit Support

I suggest reading the guides and taking a look at the example forms. The guide gives you an excellent breakdown of each step and what to expect.

In short, you will send off the I-129F petition. This is simply a petition asking for permission, basically, to file for a K1 visa. USCIS wants to make sure you are eligible and meet all the requirements. All USCIS cares about at first is that you are both free and legally able to marry. They want basic biographic information on you and your fiance and they also want proof that you've met in person in the last 2 years. That's all the first package is, really. Proof of citizenship, proof of ability to marry, and proof of relationship.

Once USCIS approves your petition, it will be first sent to NVC and then to the embassy in the beneficiary's country. Packet 3 is something the embassy sends the beneficiary, asking for some more forms. Each embassy is different, so I can't tell you exactly what will be included in the Packet 3.

After Packet 3, there will be an interview at the embassy. That is where you will provide them with some original documents such as the I-134 (and supporting evidence), police certificates, birth certificate, your passport, proof of ongoing relationship, etc.

That's a really basic breakdown of the process, but again, the guides and example forms are a lifesaver.

Check your regional form as well for embassy specific questions.

Yes, IRS tax transcripts are fine as well. Either that or copies of the tax forms that the USC sent in (1040ez and W2s, etc)

Coconuts ... just a quick question. when you apply for the I-129F petition at this stage do you need to show evidnence of emails. photo's etc?
